It is all very well to describe scams. But we should also tell how to avoid them and how to get out of them once you are in the situation. For example, "Rental damage": Can you rent jet skis witout leaving something as guarantee and if not what should you leave? And if they do take your passport hostage, will it help to call the police? --elgaard 11:26, 4 Jan 2006 (EST)

Can we have a cite of some kind of this (here, not in the article)? It does sound rather strange... Hypatia 02:22, 31 May 2006 (EDT)
