Cousins went to Jamaica once and got tired of locals offering (almost demanding) to braid their hair, locals offering (almost demanding) they buy drugs, locals rushing to get in front of their camera when they were sightseeing so they could demand a fee for "taking their picture without permission" whether they were in the shot or not, and all sorts of other assorted cr@p like that.
I went there as part of a wedding party. It felt like everyone was trying to con you out of something.
Worst was the resort.
One day I was left a note from the maid (I had put up a 'do not disturb' sign on my door that day too), saying she found my safe open, so she locked it down and I needed to call security to have it opened.
Security showed up, opened the safe, and went through everything in the safe, laying the items on the bed as he went.
My uncle, stopped by while this was happening and asked me what was going on, when I explained the situation to him, he told me they pulled the same thing with his daughter (bride) and his new son-in-law an hour earlier. He then yelled at the security guard "Hey, you are the SOB who tried to sell me weed last night!" I narrowly stopped a fight from happening.
The thinking was that the resort staff knew that people came to jamaica to buy ganja, and it was illegal to do so. They could pull a scam by locking people's safes down and confiscating he contents if they found any contraban, and a foreigner would have no recourse.
