Money Safety & Common Scams
Nashik & Trimbak
Spot fake priests, overpriced offerings and fake booking links.
Never pay unknown people for 'special darshan', 'pandit packages' or 'VIP entry' without a printed receipt. Use only official temple-trust booking sites. Prefer UPI or cards from known merchants, and keep small cash in separate pockets. Report suspicious cases to police or Kumbh help desks.
