Hey Brandon, I have a question. Do the agents actually do anything, or do they just collect their 3500 for nothing? I mean, do they actually pay bribes to the officials?

This is where local people might suggest unsuspecting tourists to feed the birds with bird food. After feeding, you might be asked to pay an amount for the bird food or even get tricked into buying bird seed.

Khlong Scams

Khlong scams in Thailand occur when boat drivers charge an exorbitant fee to their passengers. Drivers might also falsely claim that tourist attractions such as the Grand Palace is closed and make several stops, sometimes at shops or vendors, where they receive commissions for bringing in customers.

Common around: Areas along the Chao Phraya River and Grand Palace.
