Lol. I saw that..bot? or whatever it is, upvoting a spammy comment, and I thought it was supposed to be some kind of ironic joke. But maybe it's just upvoting comments completely at random? Not quite sure as to the purpose of it.

Many of the scams that hit travelers are of this kind. You get proper service, but at several times the normal price. And/or there are some extra charges added on here and there that nobody realizes are unnecessary.

I ran into such a scam in Thailand, when I first started my travels. I purchased a bus trip at a travel agency pretending to be an official tourism office. They were using the same name but with 1 letter changed. The bus was real and got me where I wanted to go. But I found out during the trip that other passengers paid 1/3 the price that I did. Otherwise I would have never known I was scammed.
