Cancún, Quintana Roo, 22 de abril de 2024 – Un reciente incidente capturado en video y compartido en TikTok ha puesto nuevamente en el foco a los taxistas de Cancún, después de que un turista canadiense denunciara un intento de estafa por parte de uno de ellos. Según el relato del extranjero, el taxista intentó cobrarle $1,000 USD (aproximadamente 17,000 pesos mexicanos) por un breve traslado de la Terminal 4 a la Terminal 3 del Aeropuerto Internacional de Cancún.
El video muestra al turista dentro del vehículo, visiblemente alterado, solicitando la intervención policial mientras enfrenta al conductor sobre el cobro excesivo. “Quiero a la policía ahora mismo”, se escucha exigir al canadiense, quien posteriormente captó la placa del vehículo como evidencia de lo ocurrido.
Tras el incidente, el turista logró bajar del auto y continuar grabando. Expresó su frustración y anunció que presentaría una denuncia formal ante la embajada de Canadá en México. “No puedo creer que esto sea tan horrible. Tu país es realmente malo, no puedo seguir siendo estafado”, comentó el afectado en el video. Asimismo, declaró que el conductor intentó huir con su equipaje aún dentro del auto, pero fue detenido gracias a la pronta acción de la seguridad aeroportuaria.
El caso ha escalado rápidamente, atrayendo la atención de las autoridades locales y de la comunidad internacional, sumándose a una serie de quejas que turistas extranjeros han expresado en los últimos años sobre prácticas deshonestas por parte de algunos taxistas en esta región turística.
@calisthenixpro PART 1 – EXPOSING the SCAMMERS that work at the CANCUN AIRPORT🇲🇽⚠️ FULL STORY BELOW Airport Taxi driver : Eduardo Galicia Guadarrama Airport Taxi Plate number: 67-HB-1R Security Agent 1 : Cristian Pollo – working at Terminal 3 Thursday April 18th 2024 at 2am Security Agent 2 : Alejandro Choch – working at Terminal 3 Thursday April 18th 2024 at 2am ! I was traveling to the airport going back to Montreal Canada at 2am Wednesday night / Thursday Morning the 18th of April 2024 when I got set up by the taxi company from the airport and the security at Terminal 3. They told me I could not stay there and need to pay another taxi ( from the airport! ) to go to Terminal 4 for 5$ which I did. I was alone with the 2 security and the only taxi available when they start pressuring me to pay via Credit card. I did not want to but I had no other choice and could walk between terminal they told me. After paying with my card and getting back in the Taxi for only 2 minute I Realized the payment that went on my card was over 1000$ . I was still in the car and the situation escalated at the Terminal 4 where I managed to get the attention of the touriste and traveler waiting for they flights. When the taxi saw the security he tried to escape with me and my luggage in the car but I manage to jump in the front of the car and shift the transmission on Park which almost result in a car accident. The airport security arrived just in time before situation got even more crazy. I filled a report number against the driver and the taxi airport , I believe some of the cops and security agent over there where also in the scam because they wanted me to go the police station to press charge against the driver but to only get rid of my story and all the proof I have against the scam system at the airport including Security and the Airport Taxi Company. I believe if I would stop the car in time something even worst was waiting for me. Are these scammers still working at the Cancun Airport?! If yes help stop this corrupted system and DO NOT TRAVEL TO MEXICO!🇲🇽⚠️
