Athens Scams: Two years ago the pickpockets on the Athens Metro almost robbed me. On this visit to Athens, I got scammed by a little kid in what is a similar scam to the one Harald Baldr exposed in his Florence Italy video. Don't fall for these scams like I did when you are in Athens Greece or anyplace in the world. Luckily I have video of me getting scammed and of when I confront the scammer.
