Thank you for this video again, so I watched this video when it was posted and always had it in the back of my head. This week, this guys tried to scam someone I know around knocking off time by using the same tactics and story they used with you, I am glad I could help prove to the person that it’s a scam by showing her this video. The sad part is that this people are still robbing people despite the police intervention. Thank you so much, you really prevented us from becoming victims of this scam.

[@tendaigandidzanwa2778]

I just love your vibe even from Wade Maya's channel you were so warm!!

[@evemason3456]

Maybe the Namibian authorities should put a type of public message on the T.V. news to make people aware and to warn people about the scammers. This would also prepare people to deal with the scams. Thank you for sharing your experience as a warning to others. Stay beautiful.

Sorry, this happened, I too got scammed in Windhoek by a guy from my village, he sent people for me and because of my good heart, I proceeded to help.

Hallo Woven,favourite youtuber and I would like to share a story where my brother also almost got scammed same Uis story,so a Namibian guy calls Him and he goes like he sells some sort of stones which a group of tourist wants to buy and they only have Euros so He should e-wallet the money and when they get to where he stays they will refund him once they reach and they also asked him to find them accommodation and a place where they will be served a variety of traditional cuisine and he starts looking for this place and he called my mom to ask whether she knows of any places and immediately she knew it was a scam,he spoke to a guy with a foreign accent and the guy who apparently sells the stones is a Damara guy,all angry because they want the stones but they don't have any Namibian dollars. He was so lucky and i am so sorry you had to go throught all that.

[@ItsWoven]

Thank you for sharing Vanessa, I hope more people can learn from this. I’m really glad your brother didn’t fall victim to these thieves and thanks to your mom too. It’s just so heartbreaking that people take advantage of people who are willing to help, but it’s the world we live in 💔

[@mariasimon231]

The moment you have to send money to someone you don't know and have never met is a SCAM!!!!!!. Woven heard pounds and thought they were going to refund her with big money lol

If that's what you think.

[@felixheyl9790]

Lol...I have been through this as well. It's a bunch of Damaras pretending to be tourists in Namibia, posing as foreigners, preferably Spanish doctors, and pretending to be stuck in Uis / Brandberg and other locations. Cannot change currency and asking for Namibian Dollars, which they promise to refund once you meet them. They tried this shit with a number of Tour Operators in Namibia.
