CLUB HELPS TRAVELERS AVOID
TRAVEL SCAMS
When travelers go on vacations, they can take these steps to keep themselves
safe from scammers.

2. Step 1: Avoid Scammer Notice
• The Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club Scam Avoidance team says that
tourists are often targets for scammers because they are unfamiliar with
the area and less likely to notice inconsistences.
• Scammers look for clues that tell them someone is a tourist rather than
a local including the way that they dress, and how they behave.
• Travelers who do their research about the area ahead of time can
familiarize themselves with the location and its customs. If they are
familiar with the area they will not stand out as much or catch the
notice of scammers.

3. Step 2: Be Wary of Deals
• Sometimes, travelers will be approached by salesmen or vendors
offering amazing deals on things like jewelry and valuables.
• Many of these deals will seem far too goo to be true and the Lifestyle
Holidays Vacation Club Scam Avoidance Team wants travelers to be
wary if they encounter these types of deals.
• Deals that are too good to be true should not be believed because the
items are usually not actually what they are suppose to be.
• Travelers who encounter these deals should not accept them.

4. Step 3: Walk Away
• When travelers encounter people who are suspicious, offer
them unbelievable deals, or who in other ways seem like they
may be a scam artists, travelers should be wary.
• The Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club Scam Avoidance Team
wants to make sure that travelers are always protected when
they travel and says that the best way to deal with suspicious
characters is to politely refuse what they are offering and just
walk away.
