As an albanian, living in switzerland and working for a swiss company with suppliers from prague. Coming every year more than 10 times for business and holiday to praha and fell in love with the city since the first time. Thank you guys. Drink some beers and one for me please 😄
Andrejko genuinely seems to like you :D Like a maffia boss: "You are a good guy, such a shame I had to have you beaten up. But we are still friends, aren't we?"
„You‘re gonna beat me in front of people?! Let‘s do it!“ Omg he‘s such a cool man 😍 Prague is one of my favourite cities ever, I absolutely appreciate your videos!
SMALL UPDATE! Just to clarify, the reason I call the scammer "turkish guy" is because, the first time I met him, he claimed to be from Turkey (he is NOT) as seen here: ua-cam.com/video/QTE5EIjxDbM/v-deo.html I should have been more clear regarding this. Really hope nobody was ofended. Thank you Janek
I’m British , you can call me the British guy anytime ( because I’m British ) Ps I am nice I don’t scam anyone if I were to then I deserve to be called worse
Hi Janek and Honza, a big fan from Turkey here! My humble take on this: this is unnecessary labeling, no matter the guy is actually Turkish or not. This naming unfortuantely is directly playing into the hands of the guy of interest, causing potential misperception. Many thanks for the explanation
I would pay good money to go scammer-spotting with you guys sometime. Please start offering guided tours, where we walk around in groups, spotting scammers, and you tell us about them. That way you have a whole crowd of people pointing and laughing at the scammers. Every day! :D
That is a horrible deal for the guide and can possibly be a dangerous situation, these are people who don't adhere to laws, you might catch one on a really bad day and thing can go bad this isn't a zoo.
@@patrickchrist4770 right now i am typing this from East Side Mall in Berlin, as a turkish guy living/studying in Poland, but coming to berlin every 2 weeks to see my girlfriend… Some of the German Turks are really “bad” but I’ve met countless of good people, mostly some of them lived much more than your age. I’ve met a guy who has been living in Germany for 55 years! Please don’t assume that every turkish in Germany is bad :( there are som great guys!
Not worth it to jail them. Cops most likely have arrested them in the past but they get let go right away from the courts. The only time the city will do something is if enough tourists make complaints and it starts lowering the number of visitors.
@@corail53but then it's already too late. Tourists scammed or worse and lost will never come back. Ai, I can just shake my head! They also forget, that back at home everyone this happened to tells at least 10 people. Those numbers accumulate fast, because people warn their loved ones and they will never go there. This is serious economic damage to the tourism sector that those scammers are causing. Judges are just too stupid to get that part and the ripple effect if they don't stop this as soon a possible.
@@corail53 The TRUTH is, jailing someone and/or putting them in prison cost $$$$$ MONEY $$$$$ a lot. Its like putting someone into a hotel. They'd rather have them on the street taking YOUR money.
There's a saying in our town that if you truly intend to kill someone, never inform that person in advance. Because surely, he will either prepare for it or just simply kill you first instead
I would think that it is the amount of paperwork that the cops would have to do and that the scammers just disappear for a time. I would suspect that if a tourist complained there might be a different reaction from the cops.
@@misamsung6191 Except that tourists DO complain, and the scammers continue to have no fear of the police. So I'm sticking with my initial assessment, and dismissing yours. 🙂
@@SebastianTombs both can be true. It’s indeed a lot of work for the police (not that I’m excusing it), for going after what in the end are just small fish and that even if they are arrested, will just be replaced by the next guy.
@@Undaglibenglaubengloben Spot on. At least where I am from, they mostly don't deal with these people as it's small crimes and they will get replaced the next day. They only deal with those scammers if they are caught red handed, which makes paperwork a lot easier
@@SebastianTombs We are talking about the difference between the reaction of the cops to the Honest Guides and tourists. Also how the cops/prosecution look upon the scammers. There is a finite resource and as long as there is no bodily harm the cops/prosecution generally won't bother. What an odd statement you made, "So I'm sticking with my initial assessment, and dismissing yours." That really falls into the so what category.
Honestly I went to Prague once many years ago. My experience was littered with people constantly trying to scam me, it even felt like officials of the city (cops, traffic controllers, museum people) were in on it too. It left a sour taste in my mouth and I have never returned. What you're doing is really important work, because I am not the only person who has experiences like these, and despite how lovely Prague was: interactions like these will put tourists off. So keep it up.
@@BopWalk that's a lazy excuse, this stuff has been going on for decades all over europe. back then you couldn't just say "you are r" and escape prosecution by doing so.
@@BopWalk You're repeating some alt-right conspiracy crap that is intended to fuel hatred and racism by creating fear. You offer very simple statements to very, very complex issues.

Maybe trust they will survive more better thn u think and not even Tht they will create an entire clan with Brasilia thr :( i am very sorry but u should check out wht this gypsi they have in Mexic :(
Nothing to be proud of. Yes, lots of scammers and scams in Brazil too. It's funny how both Romania and Brazil are amongst the most Christian countries while both are known for having a big scammer/thieves population. Cheers from Floripa...
I am so proud to be from Czech( now living in Prague) guys your work is unbelievable, you putting yourself in trouble to protect another people from scammers, one day I will find an award for you. Thank you for your effort. As the Batman protected The Gotham City, we have you.!
Went to Checkia for the first time during the Super Rally in 2016 and just loved it. Had no trouble with scammers, cheap food and lovely people was all i saw. Going again this year and i´d love to meet some scammers this time.
I spent new years with girlfriend in Prague and I got her to watch some of your videos over the past few years so we were prepared. Bit what a beautiful city!!! Amazing!! And thanks..
Great work, no doubts Prague (CZ) is beautiful and safe, but don't stop doing this videos, not only because it's entertaining af. But because you make travelling in general safer. And I love to see you being a stone in the shoes of these scammers
You guys are the greatest. You’re not fighting scammers just to have a video to post on UA-cam, you’re actually fighting scammers to make Prague a safer place for tourists 😍😍 I have recently moved to Czechia from Syria and you guys are one of the main motivators for me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the work you do ❤🙏🏼
When police is turning a blind eye, then people needs to action..you are a brave man..hope to bump into you in my holidays in Prague, starting tomorrow
Police are involved why do you And others get ignored by police making excuses for these type of People police are involved in large Ebay scams cars etc etc
One time I was in Prague and cops did patrol on train station. Annoying beggar goes on people and annoyed them to give him a money and even in agressive way. Cops turned right,plays blind and goes away.
spent 4 months working in prague this summer at a local hostel, love that you guys show that these people are out there! So many guests exchanged money with these scammers before we could warn them, hopefully you guys keep saving people :)
I am terribly sorry to say it in an impolite way: Czech Republic is in the middle of Europe, we have year 2023. Is there really anybody DUMB enough to exchange money on the streets from anonymous and very suspicious persons??? Never seen ATMs, payment via smartphone, etc. (by the way in Prague you can pay by card / smartphone virtually everywhere)... I am of course against these scammers, but regarding their clients, we have a saying: "The stupidity shall be punished".
It's the nice and friendly ones that are the most scary. Because when they see someone they care about being hurt or threatened, they go into protection mode.
This scammers are not Turkish or Albanians😂 Well done for a good job that you are doing with this scammers I have been to Prague many times and I love it and I have massive respect for Czech People Keep up the good work brother Respect from Albania 🇦🇱🇨🇿👍😀
turkish guy wears a greek hat writing "Chalkidiki" on top is just so funny. keep up the good work man, love from Greece. and i wish someone did your job in my country, Greece, too. you guys rock.
He is not actually Turkish though, its clear by the accent and our scammers make much more money scamming our own people so they dont need to operate abroad😂
@@hakkiyayla5351 whatever. Turkish are very nice people in general, people like him may be of any nationality or religion. Many shittty people are greek,turkish,chech, romanian and so on. And i imagine these guys agree with me. Love from Greece to Turkey, our mind and heart is with you.
the one at 1:16 - Fighter is Romanian at least by language- but looks like a gypsy. I wouldn't be surprised to learn all these are Romanian but after 12 years living in Prague, I think that the police are well aware of those scammers and not bothered. I would advise you to be more careful and avoid any harmful situations. They are not normal people.
Not necessarily from Romania, can be also from Moldova. These countries have exactly the same language - both countries were until WW2 together in one large Romania.
Im an Albanian guy and its sad to see these guys claiming they are Albanians. I can tell by the accent and the looks that they're not Albanian... They are giving us a bad name...
Ahoj, zbožňuju Vaši práci co děláte pro Prahu a ČR, už na Váš kanál koukám nějaký ten pátek a jsem strašně rád, že se na světě ještě najdou spravedlivý a upřímní lidé jako jste Vy. Jen jsem chtěl dát vědět, že Vám moc fandím a děkuju co pro tento stát děláte! Keep up the great work :)
As an Albanian I want to say Thank You For The Nice Words about my country. You are always welcome here and those “Gangsters” claiming they are Albanian don’t have a clue where Albania Lies on the map. 😂
Huge respect for your reaction to "Albanian threat". And for promoting Albania on your channel. I hope to meet you someday there . It's a bit heartbreaking though to see the authorities reaction (or lack of). It always puzzled me how in many European cities lot of illegal things happen in broad daylight and somehow nobody seems to care that much ...
It's true, actually. Like, here in Russia bike theft is very rare, but in european cities every person who drives a bikes probably had their bikes stolen at least once. Well, qt least it seems so from my personal experience
In the USA, criminal threats can be charged whether or not you have the ability to carry out the threat even if you do not actually intend to execute the threat.
Its same here in Czech republic, death threats are punishable by the law. BUT! The police will be convincing you NOT to report it and let it go, so they dont need to work the case. The only thing that works is keeping this in public view and make it interesting for media.
Same thing applies pretty much anywhere, then again most police forces make an calculation of severity because of funding. A low risk criminal like a scammer is not worth the time or effort, in their eyes most likely.
There are guys like this in other cities too - I've had experience of them in Lisbon, Barcelona and Milan. In Milan they did an elaborate scam in which they managed to steal my mobile phone - but I am more careful now! Thanks so much for trying to stop their nefarious activities!
Congratulations on your commitment to exposing these scammers! It shows that you love your country and that you are working for the common good! Also collecting garbage shows that you are a very socially minded, down to earth person ! God bless you !!!
Hey! Greetings from Albania! Always watching your videos and I like the support and promotion you give for your city. One day I will visit Prague and for sure I will be familiar with the city thanks to this channel. And if someone will try to scam me, I will answer: don't try it with me, I'm from Albania, you are in danger. It remembers great Italian movie: "I'm american, dangerus for you, dangerus for Italy". 😂. All the best!
I am retired from 24 years in the United States Air Force. In the late '70s was my first time in Prague, but the next time I can visit it would delight me to provide help to the Honest Guides!
I recently moved to Prague, it indeed is safe and beautiful. And I think I have I may have seen honza on the street walking with an elderly gentleman a couple days ago. Idk. But it indeed is a lovely city. Can't wait to learn more about it and explore myself
I would’ve gone off on him too, for picking on Honza. That made my blood boil. People: Do NOT touch Honza. He has many admirers who will drop you like a sack of spuds!
Albanian Here!I have watched a lot of your videos and you are doing a great work my friend!Too bad that the police is not helping you at all,in your job doing the World a better place!I work with tourists myself (I have a souvenir shop in Gjirokaster city).Thank you for the good words you said about my country and the people and thanks for cleaning up our beaches :D !Keep up the good work you're doing!
you are doing awesome job, one of the first channels that I followed and watched regularly on UA-cam. You are making great fun of those thugs from Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey (nothing against those countries, but scammers often come from these or at least declare themselves as such). It would be great if the volunteers join you to protect you from those when situation arise, I would like to see those rabbits how they would threaten you then. They would just run away and they would at least change the locations for the next few months. I realize now that I live in country that is safe from such scammers, and where such scammers cannot exists, because they would be wiped immediately. Best wishes from Croatia and keep going strong.
Just for saying this you could put him in prison for up to 2 years (and for threatening with significant violence, which murder certainly classifies, it's a minimal imprisonment of 9 months). All you had to do is to call the police and say you're worried for your life because a man who you know to be a criminal just promised to off you and you have a recording of the incident with a visible face and a fully audible voice. And if they didn't want to make a report (because many people in the Police just want to do nothing and take the money as everywhere else) you should've insist and tell them you want to talk with a higher ranking officer (who in that case will tell the guy to take a report and send a patrol to arrest the guy because it costs him nothing - everything will be done by the drones below him - and a clear video means to him another solved case this month which looks good on paper). That's why the first line really doesn't like when you ask for the manager for valid reasons.
Hello Jan, Since you are often on the road in Albania, you should know that none of the a*holes who claim to be Albanian is actually Albanian. Thank you for your wonderfully informative videos and your work in service of the beautiful city of Prague and its visitors. Přeji vám všechno nejlepší
Hey Honest Guy, do you have a specific video of the “Me albania guy”. People keep claiming he id Albanian,,,we are not those kind of people. I would like to hear from you. thank you

the one at 1:16 - Fighter is Romanian at least by language- but looks like a gypsy. I wouldn't be surprised to learn all these are Romanian but after 12 years living in Prague, I think that the police are well aware of those scammers and not bothered. I would advise you to be more careful and avoid any harmful situations. They are not normal people.
If normal police doesnt make their job complain to Justice department
Good luck
All of them are gypsy's from Romania :))
Not necessarily from Romania, can be also from Moldova. These countries have exactly the same language - both countries were until WW2 together in one large Romania.
Nothing makes me prouder than a man defending his hometown 💯 God bless your work man 🙏🏻
Much Love from Albania man. Didnt expect to see videos from my country ❤️❤️❤️ Respects for your cause 🇨🇿 🇦🇱
Man, you got balls. Well done for looking out for people
Im an Albanian guy and its sad to see these guys claiming they are Albanians. I can tell by the accent and the looks that they're not Albanian... They are giving us a bad name...
Don't worry brother ,you should be proud being albanian just like me pure white race
99% of people know they are really from romania.

Ahoj, zbožňuju Vaši práci co děláte pro Prahu a ČR, už na Váš kanál koukám nějaký ten pátek a jsem strašně rád, že se na světě ještě najdou spravedlivý a upřímní lidé jako jste Vy. Jen jsem chtěl dát vědět, že Vám moc fandím a děkuju co pro tento stát děláte! Keep up the great work :)
As an Albanian I want to say Thank You For The Nice Words about my country. You are always welcome here and those “Gangsters” claiming they are Albanian don’t have a clue where Albania Lies on the map. 😂
Thank you for standing up to bullies. May you live forever!
Huge respect for your reaction to "Albanian threat". And for promoting Albania on your channel. I hope to meet you someday there .
It's a bit heartbreaking though to see the authorities reaction (or lack of). It always puzzled me how in many European cities lot of illegal things happen in broad daylight and somehow nobody seems to care that much ...

@@spirtualmood7088 google can’t translate your message…
It's true, actually. Like, here in Russia bike theft is very rare, but in european cities every person who drives a bikes probably had their bikes stolen at least once. Well, qt least it seems so from my personal experience
@@4stringed in Russia you are stolen if you protest the government. Each country has its problems
In russia, the importing of culturally corrupt foreigners is also very rare. Think you might have part of your reason there:)
Hmm the Turkish guy sounds like a Romanian :)
There are a lot of Turks who immigrate to Romania/Bulgaria
"Pula mea" means my dick...in romanian,he is romanian,for sure.
And there are lots of Romanian speaking non Romania citizens or ethnicity in the diaspora
Sounds like a gipsy 💯
Scammers exist in every ethnicity. Some are just very obvious about it while others act from the dark.

You should not apologize, you are a true friend for defending him. Even if it is just bumping him. True friendship indeed!
Thanks! It's not much, but have a beer on me :)
In the USA, criminal threats can be charged whether or not you have the ability to carry out the threat even if you do not actually intend to execute the threat.
Its same here in Czech republic, death threats are punishable by the law. BUT! The police will be convincing you NOT to report it and let it go, so they dont need to work the case. The only thing that works is keeping this in public view and make it interesting for media.
Same thing applies pretty much anywhere, then again most police forces make an calculation of severity because of funding. A low risk criminal like a scammer is not worth the time or effort, in their eyes most likely.
everybody needs a buddy that protects honza like that
Janek every video: Very nice. Very polite. A little cheeky.
Janek when scammers mess with Honza: *Czech republic mama bear activated*
Papa Bear 👍😄
What does janek mean??
@@ustaz_abu_jan it's a Czech name, Janek/Honza or John in english.
There are guys like this in other cities too - I've had experience of them in Lisbon, Barcelona and Milan. In Milan they did an elaborate scam in which they managed to steal my mobile phone - but I am more careful now!
Thanks so much for trying to stop their nefarious activities!
And Paris, Madrid, London, Berlin...
@@aderitodealmeida5644 Perhaps yes - but it's never actually happened to me in those cities!
@@iamjoestafford , it happened to me.... and this was more than 20 years ago, before EURO era and when Reichmarks, Pesetas and similar were a thing...
Respect your courage and righteousness. Every country needs an honest guy like you. Take care
The guy from 1:07 is Romanian, but I can't say that I'm surprised, since they are everywhere, making a "living"
Yep, they're all over the place. I've saved a few tourists in Vienna from them.
He is a Romanian gypsy and he is an embarrassment to the entire country
You and Honza are great!!!!
Congratulations on your commitment to exposing these scammers! It shows that you love your country and that you are working for the common good!
Also collecting garbage shows that you are a very socially minded, down to earth person !
God bless you !!!
Hey! Greetings from Albania! Always watching your videos and I like the support and promotion you give for your city. One day I will visit Prague and for sure I will be familiar with the city thanks to this channel. And if someone will try to scam me, I will answer: don't try it with me, I'm from Albania, you are in danger. It remembers great Italian movie: "I'm american, dangerus for you, dangerus for Italy". 😂. All the best!
I am retired from 24 years in the United States Air Force.
In the late '70s was my first time in Prague, but the next time I can visit it would delight me to provide help to the Honest Guides!
Air force? What you gonna do? Ask for an A10?😂 (Jk)
Appreciate your courage and determination to expose this scammers.
Keep going !
I recently moved to Prague, it indeed is safe and beautiful. And I think I have I may have seen honza on the street walking with an elderly gentleman a couple days ago. Idk. But it indeed is a lovely city. Can't wait to learn more about it and explore myself
Love how you casually hang out with them every now and then 😂
Respect to you from Albanian boy i been to Prague for holiday in 2019 for a week it was very good experience i love the city and your country
I loved the part where he admitted to scamming a drug dealer, the irony in that 😂😂
I would’ve gone off on him too, for picking on Honza. That made my blood boil. People: Do NOT touch Honza. He has many admirers who will drop you like a sack of spuds!
Hey Honest Guide, you are just right. The GUY that said I am from Albania is not. Thank you for the correct information and what you do! Keep going
Albanian Here!I have watched a lot of your videos and you are doing a great work my friend!Too bad that the police is not helping you at all,in your job doing the World a better place!I work with tourists myself (I have a souvenir shop in Gjirokaster city).Thank you for the good words you said about my country and the people and thanks for cleaning up our beaches :D !Keep up the good work you're doing!
Your work is fantastic. We have to get to the point where tourists walk up to these guys to take selfies with them. Only then the goal is reached :D
you are doing awesome job, one of the first channels that I followed and watched regularly on UA-cam. You are making great fun of those thugs from Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey (nothing against those countries, but scammers often come from these or at least declare themselves as such). It would be great if the volunteers join you to protect you from those when situation arise, I would like to see those rabbits how they would threaten you then. They would just run away and they would at least change the locations for the next few months.
I realize now that I live in country that is safe from such scammers, and where such scammers cannot exists, because they would be wiped immediately.
Best wishes from Croatia and keep going strong.
well... To be honest, as a Turkish girl who loooves Prague I felt sad because even he is not Turkish and was labeled as a Turkish scammer ☹
He looks Turkish anyway lmao

Just for saying this you could put him in prison for up to 2 years (and for threatening with significant violence, which murder certainly classifies, it's a minimal imprisonment of 9 months). All you had to do is to call the police and say you're worried for your life because a man who you know to be a criminal just promised to off you and you have a recording of the incident with a visible face and a fully audible voice. And if they didn't want to make a report (because many people in the Police just want to do nothing and take the money as everywhere else) you should've insist and tell them you want to talk with a higher ranking officer (who in that case will tell the guy to take a report and send a patrol to arrest the guy because it costs him nothing - everything will be done by the drones below him - and a clear video means to him another solved case this month which looks good on paper). That's why the first line really doesn't like when you ask for the manager for valid reasons.
Hello Jan,
Since you are often on the road in Albania, you should know that none of the a*holes who claim to be Albanian is actually Albanian. Thank you for your wonderfully informative videos and your work in service of the beautiful city of Prague and its visitors. Přeji vám všechno nejlepší
Exactly. Theyre not Albanian. They probably use it not to expose themselves
He knows Shqipe, they are all from romania everyone in Europe knows that.
Much respect from Albania
