Here's a feel-good story from New Zealand. A ‘‘little old lady from Southland’’ was ripped off by scammers in Croatia with a highly inflated 'taxi' fare. They ran her card for €1506 ($NZ2992) after a 10-minute cab ride.

Her perseverance let to an appearance on Croatian prime-time news, an official apology from the Ministry of Tourism and their Ministry of Transport has introduced new regulations for taxis, with fare caps and specialised licence plates.

And she got her money back.

Go Carol!
