Beware of Fake Taxis
Watch out for individuals approaching you at airports or train stations offering unauthorized transport services.
⚠️ These practices are illegal and dangerous. They endanger passenger safety and harm the work of licensed taxi drivers.
🛑 What is Illegal Soliciting?
It refers to unauthorized individuals—often unlicensed—approaching travelers in public places (airports, stations, shopping centers) to offer transport services outside of any legal framework.
🚔 Why is it dangerous?
- No insurance in case of accident
- Unregulated, often abusive fares
- Risk of assault, theft, or scams
- No traceability or safety guarantee for passengers
✅ How to protect yourself?
- Refuse any transport offered randomly in public areas
- Use only licensed taxis (Example: stand or G7 – Tel: 3607)
- Check that the driver displays a visible professional license
- Use well-known ride-booking apps or official taxi ranks
🚨 If in doubt, report any suspicious behavior to the police or local security personnel.
