Welcome to NYC Karl ;) This has been going on in Time Square since they cleaned it up decades ago. The child character thing is relatively newer but I bet at least 10 years now it's been like this? The guys with the CDs is the one that's been a long time scam especially in the 90s. Make your way to the Toronto area! Being from NYC and not here, I always wished for more Indian food/culture in NYC but now in Toronto it is like a little version of Westernized India. Very unique, don't see another Indian diaspora like this in the world even in the UK. Come and stuff your face withy good food please would love to see a Canada video about the Indian community one day!

I live in nyc and the mini mouse girls They got me before. The 3 of them. They grabbed my 4 year old at the time on holloween 3 years ago and they posed and told me to take my phone out to take a pic and then all three of them put there hands out for money so I pulled out a 5 dollar bill. I put it on one of the lady’s hands and told them to split it and the other two put their hands in my face for more money. There is the male version in suits as well of them around.

Time square is horrible. In 2019 walking through there I had two guys talking about how they were trying to get into the music industry with their new rap music, so I played along because honestly why would they need to approach some random person on the street to do that. I said I worked for a music label in Europe. They followed me two blocks, insisting I should take a CD for free, so I agreed... And then they asked for a donation, to which I said no, so they asked me for the CD back and then headed back towards time square hurling loud insults at me down the street. Amusing :)

If you've ever lived in a suffocating small town environment where you can't express yourself you would know what I'm talking about.

Most NYC residents and natives stay away from Times Square unless they're passing through to get to shows. It's mostly for tourists, which is why it's full of scammers. They know people not from here don't know any better and are susceptible to folks who seem friendly. Times Square is really not representative of the city as a whole, so I hope you were able to visit some of the outer boroughs to see how most regular New Yorkers live. As always, kudos to you for exposing scams wherever you may find them, ESPECIALLY in my hometown!

6:36 At the Eiffel Tower I was also harassed by a group of women. If you MERELY READ the sign they are holding they expect payment. We were told to divert our eyes. I, a bit of a rebel at the time, was like “screw that, I’ll look where I want”. Made eye contact with one, and decided to look up and read her sign. Instantly she shuffled over with her hand out and goes “excuse me, money for prayer?” And I said no thank you. She then insisted, by me reading the sign, the prayer was finished. I can’t remember if she was the same person who was trying to raise money for a deaf school or not. But we were warned those dead school things are a scam as well. Unfortunately very few are actually raising money for deaf/blind schools. So the ones that are real.. go underfunded because everyone thinks it’s a scam. We were told to make donations directly. The SICKEST thing was when we went to an orphanage in Italy and people were outside asking for money for the orphanage. We were immediately told ALL OF THEM were completely unaffiliated.

The other day I asked an ai to list the top 100 art deco bars in NYC and it filled the list. What you find really depends whether you look beyond the most known tourist traps. Dont let those cockroaches at TIimes Square be more than what they are.

@aakhbaf4921 you'll love NYC bro. Just avoid Times Square. Only go there to buy the discounted theatre tickets. Then get out.

Being a long time subscriber, and meeting you today at a mall was surreal , was happy, nervous and way too shy to approach you. Such a gem of a person you are ❤❤❤

😅😂 Bro this world needs more people like you especially in NY🗽 expose them all!!

First rule of being a costumed character or mascot...NEVER remove your "head" in view of the public!

When we went to NY, my mom was scammed from one of these people. We just gave them the $5 without any fight because we were on vacation, but I’m sure they make WAY too much money from other vacationers who don’t want to just say “no” to tipping because they’re too nice or they don’t want to get into any trouble

Thanks for highlighting this. I’ve lived in NYC (15 years) and am currently in LA - and these folks can really bring down a visitor’s experience of these fab cities. They have no fear and the best defense is to not engage -= general rule of thumb DO NOT MAKE EYE contact!

Do I look poor or homeless? I've never been approached by these people. I've gone up to them because I heard them speak Spanish and wanted to know where they were from. Has NYC seen an influx of people from Puebla in the past 5 years?

You're so handosme. You look like PewDiePie as an older man 😊

“I have 4” “No man” I was dying 😂😂

Thanks Karl for posting this!!! I felt so sorry for that little girl when Minnie Mouse took her phone and refused to give it back unless Mum paid up!! No matter where you go, there is Scamming everywhere and thanks to you, I am so glad you catch them out!!!! Awesome Karl :-) Stay Safe 🙂

Great video, as always! I found speaking Polish to those street scammers scares them away. My language is scary i guess 😮

Hello from Belgium 🇧🇪 Thank you for opening our eyes for all this bad people is out there ... Big thank you

Nice to see someone confront these scammers

As a moderately wealthy tourist this kind of hustling really , really puts me off visiting these places . I am well travelled and perfectly able to say no or stand my ground , but it's really tiresome like constantly having to swat flies away on a hot day also some of these hustlers really do get aggresive sometimes and who needs that shit spoiling their day as a visitor to these places . Nope I tend to spend my money elsewhere . Where it is valued to the extent that I am not hassled walking around public spaces . Keep up the good work bro , it's a worthy thing you do .

Churches do the same thing to like the monks…. U pay X cash for prayer blessings/requests online😂😂😂

That same monk approached me in Times Square. He wanted “suggested donation” of 700$. It was a FREE TIBET scam. He was trying to get belligerent with me. But I turned it around and ended up getting a a free bracelet outta him. The same bracelet he took back from the OP. I wear it sometimes with pride. It’s like my anti-scam amulet.

The monk is such a hypocrite 😂 reminds me of the movers scam where shady agencies expect large tips on top of their charges or they bad mouth you : (

Haha. Don't even try pulling this in Los Angeles 😂😂

Didnt expect less from that place. First time in your channel bro. Just subbed.

Karl! I totally agree about Five Guys. Weird that guy was trying to 'stop the violence' then offered you drugs while you were recording him on the way...

Thanks Karl. I have a few friends who love going to NYC as much as they can and they never told me about these type of scams. Great info for people thinking of going there.
