An American lawyer, Andrew Hammel, shared a disturbing experience at a hotel in Jaipur that has gone viral on social media. Mr Hammel recounted that the hotel manager falsely claimed the cab driver had mistakenly given him Rs 3,000 extra in change, demanding that he return the amount. Despite the number being barely legible and printed on a worn, laminated instruction sheet, he managed to dial through and report the incident. He credited his narrow escape from the scam to a crucial detail: the international complaint hotline number provided by the hotel in his room. The situation escalated to the point where the manager threatened to involve the police. The incident occurred at a Holiday Inn which was supposed to be one of the best hotels in the city. The hotel manager and cab driver refused to back down, persistently knocking on his door for another 45 minutes before he decided to take matters into his own hands and fight back against the attempted scam.
