Presenter
the popular show “Solved” on the channel “Che”
Vlad Chizhov told about the most common
mistakes tourists, explained how to
myself to not become a victim of fraud,
and also warned men from the fatal
meetings in Thailand.

— Vlad,
recently faced with fraud
in one of the social networks. Scammers
hacked page of my friend and
sent out on her behalf the message that
her mother died
from a heart attack. The next step accordingly
there was a request to transfer money to
the funeral. Have you encountered this
a view of the crooks and exactly how need
lead, so as not to become their victim?

—
I personally did not experience, because
defended their social
networks two-level password authorization
via SMS. But we had such a plot. If
happened to this story,
the first thing to do is call
the person from whom the message came,
and find out what happened. To be sure,
that man is alive, that with him all right,
or confirm that he has
problems.

— You — the leading
the popular show on TV. Hard to believe
once the story began with
simple blog for her.

— I was not a blogger
as such. Rather, I’m on the page
the social network gave recommendations
like how not to fall into the trap of scammers.
This idea emerged more than time.
At that time I was not in Russia
I lived in Asia, and there are often faced
people that took in a variety of low
good stories because of silly mistakes.
Helped one another. People have become
to contact me. Came just
to talk or get help to take
money… In the end, my personal page
turned into a the public where people
asked questions and received answers, and
particularly egregious cases were resolved by
hot pursuit. Back in Russia, I
received an unexpected offer from
channel Th to do a reality-based
this public. Thus was born the program
“Solved” on TV “Che”.

— Where exactly in Asia
you have lived?

I lived in Thailand, lived
in Vietnam, in Singapore. But mostly
in Vietnam.

— What can
to warn tourists, for example, in
Vietnam?

In Vietnam, as in
any tourist to the country, developed
the street crime. On the street rip
bags, money are very similar — can
slip the bills of smaller denomination.
This situation is common in Italy,
in Greece and Cyprus. Yes, everywhere, even in Sochi.
Caution is very simple: don’t
let go off the bag, do not carry
all our money and not keep them in the same
place – better keep documents and money
in safes at the reception.

— I thought
in the safe in the room money to be sure
protected…

That’s a common mistake.
Remember, all the staff there
the key that will open your safe in case
if you forget your password, for example.
It happens that the hotel employee,
do not clean the hands. And they are stealing in this
the case is tricky. Let’s say you have
the safe in the room lies a bundle of money, and if
she lost everything that you are, of course, raise
the alarm. And if a thieving employee
take two or three bills, you do,
may not notice… I’m not saying
that this happens everywhere, but it
it happens… the Main thing to prove in
this case does not work —
video surveillance in the room has no…

— I heard that
in Asia it is easy to lose mobile
phone…

Yes. And literally
15 minutes to the stolen phone will have
sold. I would also advise hiring
the taxi driver, to immediately,
how long it will take you. And to do
need it in writing, just in
paper write the agreed amount and
show to driver. Because as much as you
well neither owned, for example, English,
the driver in the end of the trip calmly voiced
a sum three times exceeding that to which
you were hoping for. And your objections
will be repeating one thing: “do not understand.”

— As for
new Dating? Men with girls
for example?

— If a local girl
came up to our camper on the street
to get acquainted, as she had not been
attractive, it is better to understand,
that he does not intend to continue communication.
You do not need to be carried out beauties! Maybe
article, you will find yourself in a very
suspicious spot where you’ll gather
to the bone: formed, will strip and Rob you.

— Women tenderly
are men-to defenders, to the
who can solve everything. Groupies you
often write?

— I will disappoint you. As
any fans I do not write. On
a thousand letters can be only one, where
says “I like You!”
And in 999 cases people write about their problems,
they often swoop on fraudsters.

— And signing autographs
the street did not ask for?

— There are,
what you ask, but this to me is very
unusual.
