⚠️ Rome Scams to Avoid (Indian Travellers Targeted)
  • "Free" roses near tourist spots — once you take it they demand payment
  • Restaurants with menus in 10 languages near major sights — walk 2 streets away
  • Unofficial taxis at Termini station — use official white taxis or Uber
  • The "broken meter" taxi trick from Fiumicino — always agree price upfront or use train
