Unfortunately this scheme is known in many cities around the world. :( I guess there are better pages describing the tricks played on tourists, but here's an article with some of the more common ones: http://www.guardian.co.uk/travel/2002/sep/01/budgettravel.observerescapesection (Another category of trick that article seems to miss, though I have no idea if it ever happens in Argentina, is locals who apparently make friends with tourists, then lead them to a bar which at the end of the evening demands payment of a ridiculously high bill -- the 'friendly' locals obviously collude with the bar owners on this.) -- Moray _______________________________________________ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss
