Airline Scams
—————
1) When you buy your tickets, tell you travel
agent that your kids love to
play "travel", so could she please leave the voided
travel coupons in with your
ticket so you can give them to them. (this is the copy of the
ticket that is
included in the carbons looks just like a ticket, except it has void printed
them the voided portion . (make sure you have the good one in case they don’t
take it!) about
2 out of 5 agents just glance at the flight number and the date
and hand you a boarding pass.
when your trip is over, you cash your real
ticket back in at your travel agency and tell them
that you changed plans.
(don’t do this more than once at the same travel agency though!)
2) Another fun game is the "lost baggage" scam. when you check your bags in,
make sure you include one bag that is a "carry-on" size bag. when you arrive
at the
baggage terminal, you get all your bags and then tear off (discretly!)
the tag for the
carry-on-sized bag. then you march over to the airline and
tell them that one of your bags did
not arrive. they will ask to see your
claim stub and your ticket. then you will have to
describe the contents and
the style of bag. (make sure you pick out an *expensive* bag - all
leather or
a "hartman" type bag.) the contents should be a few silk ties, a $400
suit, a
hewlett packard calculator, an electric razor, a few computer program disks, an
assortment of irreplaceable papers, etc. your bags are insured for $1,250 per
trip, so with a
little creative paperwork, you can make $5-600 on a trip. once
again, the insurance industry
is involved, so always do this under a different
name and address each time. *never* use a
different name than appears on your
ticket…
