Counterfeit Name-Brand Items
In many countries, you’ll find street carts on the sidewalks selling all types of food, clothing, and items for you to take home as a souvenir to your loved ones and friends. Always pay attention to what they’re trying to charge you, and wary of counterfeit items they might be trying to sell you, as that is often the case.

It’s common to see street carts selling phony items with name-brands like Gucci or, as this traveler experienced, Ray-Ban sunglasses. Let’s be honest here; no Ray-Ban sunglasses are ever going to be ‘cheap,’ even in a foreign country. Name-brands are also highly unlikely to be sold in a street cart either, as they would quickly get robbed of their merchandise.
