India Scams - RAW Vlog #6

Watch out for this! We were scammed in India by one of India's biggest cellphone data companies, Airtel. We have heard of plenty of scams in India, however this one was completely new to us. Don't worry, the video isn't all bad, we also show you around a beautiful, wealthy neighborhood in South Delhi and our favorite Delhi hotel, Arman the Green B&B. Make sure you watch until the end to hear about the scam!
First, we want to show you around a rich neighborhood in India because too often tourists show the less affluent neighborhoods of the country. Many of you asked to see the "Modern India" and this is it! If you are traveling to India and will be in Delhi, we highly recommend staying at Arman the Green B&B. The rooms are beautiful and well decorated while the owners are incredibly friendly! There is 24 hour security and a full kitchen staff that cooks your meals upon request. If you're looking for the best hotels in Delhi, skip the major hotel brands and stay at Arman! No, we did not get a discount for showing you this India hotel tour, we just loved the place that much.
* Book Your Stay: www.armandelhi...
Next we head over to Greater Kailash to walk around the hip neighborhoods in South Delhi. That's when we walked into an Airtel and found out about the phone data scam in India. When we landed in India in Bangalore, we went to get an Airtel sim card. The guy charged us $20usd each for 30 days of data. We had no idea that it was possible for a large company like this to be involved in one of the many tourist scams in India. We were a little upset to find out that a 30 day sim card with Airtel data only costs $2-3 usd. This was our first and only time being scammed in India, so watch out for this and store this away as an India travel tip if you plan on traveling to India for tourism.
As in every country, foreigners getting scammed is a relatively common occurrence. If you plan to travel India, just read up on the common Indian scams and be aware. We had an amazing time in India, particularly South Delhi, and encourage you to visit if you are interested in seeing a deep rooted culture, kind people, and amazing food. If you need a great airbnb in Delhi don't forget about Arman the Green B&B! Tell everyone we said hi :)

As we mentioned, it’s not about the money. It’s the fact that people are willing to take advantage of others. We hate that! Especially tourists, who are visiting the country to have a nice experience which helps the local economy. No matter how much or how little money was scammed, it’s the principle behind it. 😊❤️

[@MavericKVlogs]

I second this - ITs the principle that matters the most !

Yes.......he should be fired🔥🔥🔥 Are u kidding me 20 dollars🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️😥

[@prabodhnayak]

You mostly get sim with no cost in India, And have to pay for The pack /recharge coupon only. 3-4 years back it was very easy to get a sim card in India but now a days telecom companies made it almost compulsory to provide Adhar card(national identity) compulsory for sim, And buying sim with passport driving license will take 48-72 working hours to get activated and and have to submit physical photocopies. In case of adhar card it’s online authentication by fingerprint scan instantly activated.So it’s easy for Indian to get sim card than foreigners. Government made this rule for safety and control terrorism and crime . Sorry for all who suffered.

Not true really, me and my friends had a guide in india. The guide brought has to this place for horseback riding, and he decided to point us to this guy he "recommends". Next thing we know everything is good , we had a nice ride and shit. But later that day, we met some other indians and got acquainted. It was then we realised that what we paid for the horse ride was 5 times the normal price.... I think "help" should only we asked to other indians that arent doing business in the area, cause those doing business are just looking to pull a fast one

In Delhi except old Delhi and north Delhi all other area are good . But god knows why all foreigners goes to old Delhi area .It's dirtiest place in Delhi. Other area like dwarka ,south Delhi ( I am from hauz khas area ) ,gurgaon ,noida are better than old Delhi. India has third largest numbers of millionaire and billionaire in world .Again god knows why BBC and cnn feeds only poverty image of India . As for dental work in India ,most of Indian dentist you see in West are the one who didn't get job or is good enough to survive competition in India in that sector

Great to see another DBV vlog pop up. Sorry to hear about the scam. I disagree with the down votes and the comments about it only being a small amount of money. Any rip off is wrong. I would guess the best way to be successful at stealing would be to steal a little from many people, not a lot from a couple. The fact that your vlog started by noting you guys always pay for your accommodations, no freebies, demonstrates how important every expenditure is to you. So, I agree, even a scam for a relatively small amount of money still hurts. On a lighter note, love your generousity, showing the building, reflecting on your personal chef, showcasing the bar, restaurant and the neighborhood. You both always capture the feel of a place, not just the highlights. Appreciate you both.

[@staciasleight3369]

DDIII3 really glad to hear this comment!!! I completely agree with you, it’s about the person actually ripping you off and feeling okay about it, not the amount of money we lost. Because it wasn’t that much. We are just upset when people look at us as an opportunity because we try to always be kind and we would never take advantage of anyone! Anyways, yes this place was gorgeous!! We loved it there and it felt like home 😊 Hope you have a great week!

[@DeathByVlog]

Thanks man! Not really worried about the scam. It was only a few bucks. It’s just sad that this type of thing happens so often on this side of the world. You really don’t know who to trust.

The dislike was for generalising things... Like Saying everyone who walks up to you has a bad intention or saying everyone looks at White people as walking ATM.. That's not true at all...

Finally another RAW vlog,thanks guys i love these just as much as the cinematic ones.It shows us more about your everyday lives which is interesting.It is very messed up when employees are trying to trick foreigners into overpaying in a real phone company shop and it's a bad look for the company involved.You have to kind of expect it from street vendors and street hustlers but not in an actual shopfront.Best advice is only deal with vendors who have there price clearly displayed for the goods or service so you know right away when they have tried to overcharge.

[@DeathByVlog]

RAW videos are fun that’s for sure 😊 Yes, that’s exactly what we expected, on the street is one thing but in a corporate company store you would never think you’re being scammed. 😡

that’s a real bummer when that happened to you, i know the feeling. but as you were saying this is happening in most part of asia unfortunately & india you’d find more so, it’s a real shame! i’ve stopped nearly 6 months travelling around india, i could give you a list full on how to avoid been scammed over there. you just need to be more vigilant if in doubt. ask the local advices ie staffs at the hotel or someone you may know, it’ll give you a rough guide of their charges/prices. but don’t let that put you both off, there are many genuinely kind people & great things of je ne sais quoi. india is one of the kind, expect the unexpected. i truely love it! enjoy your vlog always, safe travels.

Cheapest and the best service that you can find in India. Jio has plans like daily 1.5GB and 2GB per day for 90 days and it costs like Rs 509 and for 28 days, you have the option to choose from 3GB-5GB per day and you can always add their Rs50 discount coupon whenever you purchase any unlimited plans or any data packs (Data packs max 6GB costs like 101 and you only have to pay RS 51, can use this as per existing plans validity) Enjoy your stay, please do visit Kerala next time and sorry, I don't work for jio ;)

Great to see the RAW video, you two! I've been busy getting ready for my trip happening in two weeks, and was working for a couple of months so I need to catch up on some of your previous videos. Now you have me wondering about dental work! I have been looking in to implants, I need two, and I found a place near Bui Vien St in Saigon that did them for cheaper than anywhere else I have been to. Looks like I might have to rethink that, and check into India. Vietnam does an implant for about $1,400 last time I was there...and I am going to look into it again on this upcoming trip. If you are getting three root canals and three crowns for a grand, maybe I better look into India! Thanks for that bit of information. It's sad about the scams that we all run into. I have gotten scammed a couple of times, one was an elaborate scam about playing blackjack on a cruise ship from a couple of Filipinos in Bangkok. One of them claimed to be a dealer on a ship off the shore of Phuket, and was retiring...long story short, my wife was calling me from the US, talked to them on the phone while I was at their house in her dialect and told me I was getting scammed, which I had already presumed anyway. It was just as you said, one of the Filipinos came up to me the day before and asked me where I was from, blah blah blah, found out I was married to a Filipina and then wanted to know if I would come over and meet his family. Sad how you can't just take a lot of people at their word.

Airtel, Vodafone, BSNL and other Indian operators have different pricing and plans for different regions. Please check on their website. As long as you would have insisted for a money receipt, they couldn't have scammed you. Airtel won't short change you, they have a US$13 billion turnover.

I am so sad to hear that. It even happen to Indian People .I had an incident a while ago in Delhi, when I was visiting. Apparently ourEnglish sounded had an accent to Our people as we were living in US for a while(kids speak American English), the hotel we were staying started charging us for everything like crazy. We left that place next day. Its really a shame .it should not happen to anyone

[@samanwaybera6923]

Sorry, that scam happened to you in India. Be an Indian I feel very sorry. Some people are there everywhere you know who want to be rich in a short period of time. Very nice video.

[@ammiism]

Thank you so much for sharing the information about AIRBNB. My friends from America are visiting India in December and I shared the same information with them.

[@sam_1775]

[@DeathByVlog]

Yeah, we got screwed lol 😂

[@sharath902]

Indians were scammed by Airtel and Idea for the last whole decade... Till the baap jio made its entrance...😍😍

[@dhruvsehrawat5093]

Was waiting for the video 👏you both are awesome 🤘

[@user-pz6et7bi5w]

Please download Airtel app. You can browse through all the unlimited plans which is listed in a single tab. Take a screenshot while sending an email. RS.199 is the cost for 1.5 GB data per day with 28 days validity + additional for sim cost. I bought a new sim recently for my relative. First recharge comes around RS.297 with 28 days of validity. First recharge is always different from regular recharges. Just fyi.

[@DeathByVlog]

Thanks for the info! We did download the app AFTER we got the sim. Next time we know what to do 😊

[@zelina364]

Jio is cheap than Airtel

[@RakeshGupta-wt8jf]

YOU ARE SAFE IN INDIA IF YOU ARE VIGILANT . SOMEONE SCAMMED ITS NOT A BIG THING. YOU GONE BACK ALIVE ITS REALLY APPRECIABLE.

[@ranajoyshil]

Here's a tip from a general Indian, always use your mobile/Internet to commit everything, use Google maps to go anywhere, it's almost perfect everywhere, always use Google pay or your Visa card to pay for most cases and always try to use online cabs like Ola/Uber for a short to long distance journey and use apps to order food online from store if you don't have to go to store and always always always try to get a local along with before you go to somewhere or make a purchase from a non-established store or something, hope that will help, cheers👌🏼🙏🏼

[@dheerajchauhan6799]

U make a perfect couple...I love ur channel..I m so sorry for all the troubles..I will suggest u going to ATM and while traveling on autorickshaw just be aware becoz most of scammers are there...now u have Sims(data) I think it will save you from a lots of trouble..and try to user OLA/uber while traveling..

[@keshavdawra12]

I would say the scam things are more common only in few major cities, the experience would be much different in rest of the places..but you guys looks beautiful together, great chemistry. Much love!

[@incredibleindia3357]

Sorry to hear that, it will cost only USD 3.5 to purchase a SIM in India with data(1.5GB per day ) and call.

[@lokesh007ish]

Very sorry to hear about your bad experience!!

[@MavericKVlogs]

Guys - so close yet so far ! missed seeing you this time. Great Vlog ✋👊😛

[@DeathByVlog]

So sorry it didn’t work out man! Next time for sure 😊👍🏻

[@gadariparty]

I am really sorry about Airtel trouble in Banglore, its ALWAYS good to shop around and being little more cautious isn't a bad idea. I myself just back to India from Vancouver after 20 some years but I am an India have lots of friends around. Oh could you please tell me little bit about dentist you visit in Delhi ?

[@avnpavan]

In our Hindu culture we feel “Atidhi devo bhava” (guest is god), but these kind of scamsters are brining bad name to entire nation. We must not tolerate them at all. You guys have done a right thing by reporting that idiot.

[@VJMOJO]

It was m'y Birthday Today and Thanks guys, i'm going to celebrate there Tonight. Also, you do get people who try to scam you a lot and ï really really apologize for your scamming expérience. Hope thé rest of your trip is pleasant and scam free. Cheerio

always ask for invoice or notification on your mobile.

[@Bishalpilley]

Thank you for this..... actually indian people have a lot luxury cars and building... But many of foreigners try to show the other side of India which is poor India is not very poor country and thank you for showing this side of India

[@tigredanslacage]

The localities that you show in GK, etc are present in all major cities of India. I have myself done dental care both in the US and UK, and as long as you have insurance, the co-pay always works out to what you pay overall in India. I don't think that is not affordable with your 'western' income.

[@brianp6097]

Great to see you guys again but a pity about the scam news .Just back today from my travels in Asia ,so need to catch up with your recent videos . Interesting info on the dental charges , so thanks for that . Have fun and stay safe .

[@marcinkopka3641]

You should definitely go to Goa and Palolem beach. I recommend the bar with accommodation on the beach Big Fish, the food is delicious.

[@bmsmartservice3521]

Wow.... That's an amazingly beautiful place. How did you find that? Please give the location link. Regards.

[@nirmalraj8897]

We Bangaloreans are very very sorry for what happened... We will spread this message over here and make sure this won’t repeat again...

[@hemasingh8033]

You need to place complain , so that in future the other people don't face this problem .... This need to change Take care ,good luck Edit : most of the people will say , this is best place in India , or best drink in India , best park in India and charge more don't trust them , Trust internet and trustworthy people

[@zeliang5101]

Its depend on which state u go in india

[@gamerx_568]

Hello to both of you. As I don't know your names but I felt very bad when I listened you story about the scam. I thing I will recommend you is that ask someone before doing something. In india they scam Indians also if you have little knowledge about some new stuff so be careful and inquire new things on internet or take help from any Indian whom you trust.

[@bhaitower8999]

only in Japan and Singapore , you don't get scammed in Asia

[@rolandoesling6587]

Hey guys. It's been nearly a year now since you made that promise to return to the Philippines 'very soon.' So, when are you really coming back? Juicy Vlog, Making It Happen, Coshan Uncharted, Jumping Places, Steve Yalo and Beer For Breakfast, among others, are in the Philippines right now vlogging in different locations. Check them out so you'll know where you should explore next. Stay safe.

[@jassingh2360]

On another note your right there are scammers out there who will target westerners and not only westerners urban middle class indians are also targets but l would say well seasoned travellers can easily distinguish between those who want to profit out of any engagement with you to those who are friendly. Indians are extremely hospitable and friendly, l am a Westerner but of Indian origin and l had people pay for my meals, drinks, autos and people waiting around to make sure l got on the bus ok etc the only other place they were that friendly was Lebanon. So dont let the scammers put you off, your gut instinct always serves you well. Regards safety it is an issue in parts of Delhi but most areas are safe and comparable to any other big city. Just the usual safety precautions and common sense you would use anywhere. Besides Delhi is considered 'dangerous' and 'unsafe' by Indian standards but by US standards its really safe!

[@Ceylonian93]

i saw your Sri Lankan series; hope you gonna come again to do another video about more locations. Luv from SL.

[@timtense]

How much do you pay for that place? Not sure if you mentioned it.

[@hemasingh8033]

She mentioned and said $60 for full house + personal cook /day But you can find a good apartment in that area for $20-$30 /day And hotel room in main area around $15....

[@timtense]

@@hemasingh8033 cool thanks. I missed that!

[@electrobins]

Title is very misleading. You guys are misrepresenting by saying it a scam, there are lots of plans available and you might have selected a bad plan. For your information, I was scammed by Apple in NY, they sold me warranty for USD129 on iPhone which was not necessary. You see my point?

[@madhvinawani]

Hey guys, sorry about your experience. Really hope your reported it anyway. If you guys liked Sidecar, you should try PDA too in GK 2, M block. They have really good cocktails but the food in Sidecar is better. Also, there are three parts of Greater Kailash and the one you went to is 2.

[@rikbhattacharya5019]

I pay 399 rupees for 1.5gb 4G data per day for 1 month in my phone and I pay 800 rupees for 120mbps unlimited data each month for my broadband, data is this much cheap in India. 20usd is too much for data in India. I'm an Indian and every people you are talking with is not a scammer. Because of your purpose of travelling you need to deal with those people, if you have a local guy with you then you will never be scammed. Peoples like taxi drivers or travel agencies or hotel managers will try to take extra money from you, and it is not exclusive to white people, same happens with our own Indian people too. Suppose you are from another part of India and you don't know the local language of the area you are travelling (As you know India is a diverse country with tons of local languages) , there is a possibility you got scammed. It is not like a big real shitty scam or something like that but local businessmen will try to charge you extra for everything. And never be scared in India if you think your'e being followed, you turn around and make yourself looks very much confident, no one gonna do anything to you, it works, just make yourself look that you know everything around you. But be careful from few spoiled rich kid in delhi, they are the one who do dirty things if given opportunity, because they know that their dads are some powerful man ( may be politician ) and save them if they do some worst possible things.

[@joelbaby8418]

Brother don’t take it to heart every were around the world people are being fooled but u are the only people in the world who will make a video about if we were going to make videos about scam in America it will be lot more

[@badbadboy5657]

I completely understand that you guys were pissed, anyone would be angry for that. I hope what you said "everyone you meet is just to rob money" is out of impulse anger. Not everyone dude. You should have taken the help of someone from India.

[@badbadboy5657]

I still feel bad for you. You went there to have some fun time but being fooled or used is the worst feeling.

[@gp235801]

What happened to your issue with Airtel? Any update? I'd suggest you to contact them on Twitter if they haven't responded already.

[@ajitesh764]

Make a tweet to Airtel with every detail u got of that guy..... Coming to the scam part, it happens with every traveler who is out of their native place, can happen with anyone anywhere. It happens with Indians travelling within India. Just don't generalize. Love your videos.

[@Indian-cricket2011]

Absolutely right guys!! whenever someone try to socialize for no reason in india , there is always intent in their mind to scam. so jus stay alert/informed/aware. Then you guys are good to go! im Indian aswell, but sad in india ,good people are taken as innocent As you guys rightly pointed out,it happens worldwide in all major cities. Im jus giving you guys feedback from indian perspective. stay chill ,have fun . ciao :)

You have people who want to scam and make a quick buck everywhere. It's not representative of what people are around the world or in a country. Many people are just genuinely interested in helping you out. Cautious optimism is probably the best approach.
