KUWAIT, Sept 27 (KUNA) -- Travel agencies in Kuwait should be warned of the presence of international scam groups that use false credit cards, said an official here Monday.
Managing Director and Head of the Master Group for Aviation Dr. Bader Al-Sa'ad told KUNA that the scam occurred when such parties would use false credit cards to book for hotel and flights, noting that highly professional con-artists would be using such cards.
Such individuals would focus their activities within regions such as the GCC which always witnesses a huge surge in tourism, said the official, who called on travel agencies and companies to take extra precaution to prevent such scheme from fooling them. - Kuna
