I have just received this e mail from someone. Thought that I should post it here. Is there anyone with a similar story or experience?

Friends,
Please be careful when going to Dar-es-salaam.
There is new scam just started to steal passports in the last few days. After Visa and Immigration when you go through to customs they ask to see you passport. When you hand them your passport they give it to a person near them who takes it and runs straight out of the building. This is planted so you cannot even run behind them and catch them.
Suggest you hold your own passport and just show it to them, refuse to hand over your passport to customs- ... also make few photo copies too !

Please forward this email to anyone who is likely to be going to DAR soon
 
sasa wakishachukua hiyo passport what follows next,i mean is it of any value to anyone else?
 
Bongo bana, watu wanatafuta kila njia ya kuanzisha ufisadi wa kiaina, ukiziba hapa wanaboma pale,

Kazi kweli kweli kujenga Bongo.
 
Mmmh .... this define the word WEIRD!! Thanx man
 
Hii habari haijatulia, kama anayechukua passport in customs iweje wewe uondoke hapo na wakati umemkabidhi mtu unamuona yupo pale pale? mbona mimi tena majuzi nilisahau hand bag yangu, nikalazimika kuwaachia passport yangu pale immigration nikaenda kuchukua handbag yangu na nikakuta passport yangu bila shida?

Labda mtoa mada alikuwa ana matatizo mengine pale airport. Au walikuwa wana mhisi kitu wakaenda kuichunguza pass yake.

Passport za sasa huwezi ukafanya hivyo, picha haijabadikwa, ni scanned na kila kitu digital (yaani yale mambo ya height, colour, eyes colour, mwanya etc) yapo encrypted.
 
Hii habari haijatulia hii, hakuna ukweli wowote... Passport yaweza ibwa kariakoo, si Airport, tena immigration desk.

Sinunui hii taarifa!!
 
Hii haijatulia kabisa. Ina maana wale watu wa customs washirikiane na wahalifu kutorosha passport halafu wao wabaki hapo hapo wakiendea kuchapa kazi? Kwani customs wako interested na kitu gani, passport au mzigo ulioshuka nao (na thamani yake if possible)?
 
Wanaijeria mbona wanafanya hiyo miaka mingi tuu. Ndio mana nchi nyingine kama USA wanachukua alama za vidole, kila ukiingia tena wanakwambia weka kidole chako. Hamna hata haja ya kubadili picha, hawa weupe wahatutofautishi sana. Wengi tuu wanatuma passport zao kwa ndugu zao , na wanazitumia kusafiria

Unatuharibia lugha ndugu!
 
well siwezi ku-rule out kilichosemwa na mtoa mada............

Kuna kitu niliona ni cha kijinga sana pale unapotoka.....siku moja nimeshapita immigration na customs........pale mlangoni nikakutana na kijana mmoja na eti akanitaka aone passport yangu...........
 

Naungana na wewe mkuu. Sidhani kama passport ni kitu valuable kiasi hicho. Suppose passport ni ya mzungu mbongo ataifanyia nini bana?
 
LOOOOOOOOOOOH! Kasheshe!!!
Tunaomba utusimulie mkasa wote kwa kirefu maana kila aliyejibu ameshindwa kuelewa mantiki na majaliwa ya tukio lako... tafadhali tuhabarishe kwa kina na hatua ulizochukua na maedneleo au matokeo ya tukio hilo yakoje. UWE MUWAZI ILI WATU WANUNUE USHAURI WAKO ili wafute maswali waliyokuuliza wewe na pia mawazo juu ya maafisa wa Uhamiaji walishughulikia pasi yako
 
Nyie bisheni tu hapo ukishalizwa ndio utaaminI.Wanaigeria wananunua passport za Tanzania $2500-3000..
