There is an emerg­ing trend of scam­mers claim­ing to rep­re­sent le­git­i­mate guest hous­es and of­fer­ing book­ings for tourists then pock­et­ing the mon­ey that is trans­ferred to them.

The lat­est scheme was ex­posed by ACP To­ba­go Os­wain Subero when he de­liv­ered re­marks at the launch of an Ar­ti­fi­cial In­tel­li­gence (AI) train­ing pro­gramme for 20 po­lice of­fi­cers at the To­ba­go Tech­nol­o­gy In­sti­tute yes­ter­day.

He warned vis­i­tors to ex­er­cise cau­tion when book­ing guest hous­es and ho­tel ac­com­mo­da­tions.
