Unofficial 'Helpers' and Porters: At Blaise Diagne International Airport, travelers may encounter individuals offering unsolicited help with luggage or directions, then demanding excessive payment. Avoid by politely declining assistance from anyone not in official uniform, and only use clearly marked airport porter services with visible pricing.

Unlicensed Taxi Drivers: Unofficial drivers may approach passengers inside the terminal or just outside, offering rides at what seem like good rates but often charge inflated prices or take indirect routes. Avoid by using only official taxi stands with meters or pre-booking through your hotel or reputable ride services - check current options in booking widgets.

Currency Exchange Scams: Some individuals may offer to exchange money at 'better rates' than official exchange counters, but provide counterfeit bills or use sleight of hand to shortchange you. Avoid by only exchanging money at official airport exchange counters, ATMs, or banks, and always count your money carefully before leaving the counter.
