10 Common Travel Scams Making a Major Comeback

The Wi-Fi Honeypot

As travelers increasingly rely on digital connectivity, the Wi-Fi honeypot scam has resurfaced. Scammers set up unsecured Wi-Fi networks in public places, enticing tourists to connect. Once connected, they can access sensitive information such as passwords and banking details. To safeguard your data, avoid connecting to unfamiliar networks and use a virtual private network (VPN) for secure browsing. Keeping your device's security software updated and disabling automatic connections to open networks are also effective measures to protect against this threat.
