So, I'm currently on a trip in China and my new found buddy and I just got scammed for $300. Long story short, people in parts of China, i.e. Beijing, Shanghai and other famous tourist attractions, will talk to you and ultimately take you to a tea shop. Normally, tea is free in restaurants, but this is "special" tea. After an order is made, the Chinese native will order some really expensive tea without you even knowing the price and then you get hit with the bill when you're leaving.
I done some research on the Internet, appears to be a very popular scam. My buddy and I realized early on it was a scam, but fell for it because we didn't know how expensive the tea was. The same scam apparently happens with artists selling art and mixed groups of people wanting to tour you.
So moral of the story: Just say NO to TEA!!!! TEA is BAAAAAD hmmmmkay!
