Iran
Guy on the picture ( attached), approached tourists offering stay at his home. He approached us by Couchsurfing, sent us lots of messages. We intended to stay 2 nights, after 1st night stay he made up a story that he is in need for USD dollar and can exchange offering 60% value of free market - we refused. Following day at 6pm he asked us to leave his place. Also on the first night there were 2 more couch surfers - same story, questions about exchange for very bad exchange rate - they left. Avoid this guy or others.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
thanks for this warning.
I spotted him also on Warmshowers.org and was planning to stay there.
