For many years now, tourists have been the target of scams in certain tourist areas of the capital, notably Montmartre. The bracelet-weaving scam is still going strong, and you need to beware.
The Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle airport is invaded by “clandestine wrappers” wrapping your luggage for a lesser cost but illegally. Do not let yourselves be appealed by their attractive rates, their “services” are not licensed and your bags could be denied.
