Another famous foreign Youtuber named Dale Philip has complained of getting scammed and harassed by local horse riders at Karachi beach.
The YouTuber went on a Karachi beach and asked a man for a horse rider who told him that he will charge Rs200 for a ride but the situation soon escalated after he went for a ride with the local man.
Taking it to his official Facebook page, Philip wrote, “I previously had some great experiences at this beach, taking a camel ride, driving the dune buggy, eating delicious food, and meeting dozens of friendly people. That’s the reason I decided to move to a guest house next to the beach, so I could have many more fun days there.”
He went on to say, “I believe that 99% of people in Karachi are kind and honest but if you end up meeting one (or in this case, two) bad guys it’s enough to completely ruin your experience. Now I don’t think I’d dare return to that beach.

I’d advise any tourists who do want to go there, please go with a local friend who is wise to these kind of tricks that are played.” In the video, it can be seen how the YouTuber was scammed for a ride at the beach. It was simply a ride of Rs200 but since he was a foreigner, the local rider asked him to pay Rs5000 instead.
A similar case surfaced a few days ago where a boy was arrested for scamming another Australian YouTuber named Duke Damant who complained on his Facebook account how he was harassed by the local horse rider at Karachi beach.
