Trends in Dubai
Why are my credit card details getting stolen?
Is it a Whatsapp security issue? Are they hacking into my notes app?
Can hackers access saved cards on talabat and amazon?
Has anyone else experienced the same thing?
Dubai's a hotbed for tourism and unfortunately, that means more opportunities for less-than-savory characters. Skimming devices are common, especially at less reputable establishments. Be extra cautious with where you use your card, and consider using contactless payments when possible.
Dubai/Sharjah Road Scam?
I helped a guy stranded on the ring road, gave him a ride to Ras Al Khaima after he claimed to have lost his wallet. Turns out he was fine, just jumped out and vanished. Did I get played?
Yeah, you got played. Hard. That's a classic scam. Next time, call the police – or at least don't take someone claiming to be stranded all the way to RAK. Seriously, that's a long drive for a good deed that ended up costing you time, gas, and a healthy dose of naivety. Lesson learned, I guess. Don't feel too bad, though. Lots of people fall for this one.
Yeah, I know, I feel like a total idiot. RAK?! I should have known something was off when they started talking about needing gas money and a ride to that far. I was just trying to be helpful, you know? Ugh. Live and learn, I guess. Thanks for the honesty, though. At least it wasn't a huge amount of money, but the time wasted... and the gas... that stung.
