Unlicensed drivers approach passengers inside airport terminals offering taxi rides, but legitimate taxis wait in the official queue outside. These imposters aren't insured and charge two to three times the normal fare. Refuse any offer inside arrivals and find the official taxi line instead.
Never ever do this in an airport for your safety. I travel worldwide, and there's an airport scam that happens when you step out of the arrivals. Let me tell you what it is. If someone walks up to you smiling and asks, taxi? That's a trap. Because real taxi drivers never go inside the airport looking for passengers. They wait in the official taxi line outside. Those drivers approaching you aren't licensed or insured, and they'll charge you 2 or 3 times the real fare. So, if someone offers you a taxi inside the airport, the answer should always be no, keep walking, and look for the official taxi line.
