Paris Cafes Caught Cheating Tourists with Cheap Wine | Vantage with Palki Sharma | N18G

An investigation has uncovered widespread wine fraud in Paris cafes, where tourists are being served cheaper wine instead of the premium bottles they paid for. The report reveals that restaurants in popular tourist areas are swapping high-end wine with budget alternatives to boost profits. Wine fraud is illegal in France, but tourists rarely notice the deception. How can you avoid being duped?

  1. White people cheat more while pretending to be noble. Sad thing is, the rest of the people fall for the false propaganda.Just look at the history of the world.

  2. Good job exposing their scam. The last time I went to Paris with my wife, I got scammed too and they ridiculed me for for asking too many questions.

  3. Use technology to test the wine. Use some of AI to find practice areas or people doing it. And the best – not to drink liquor and wine at all.

  4. I think this is a perfectly predictable expression of the arrogance tourists have been meeting since at least the 1970s.

    I hardly ever buy French wines anymore. The price rarely matches the quality. If they don’t change their ways soon, they’ll end up like Italy whose wines are always on sale in the supermarkets.

  5. 👀
    Honte Honte Honte …
    I want a refund for all the wine I’ve had there 10 years ago + interest and the fine for being cheated!!!
    Up yours scammers!!!

  6. Your first mistake was expecting the French to be honest about anything. There's dishonesty at the core of being french. You Can NEVER be French if you are honest

  7. They should serve individual bottles (smaller) and unopened instead of selling a glass. I remember being served another drink that way where the bottle was opened In my presence.

  8. Fake paneer, fake tofu, fake wine… if you are not rich you are not eligible to have anything authentic… this is the new world order

  9. Please ignore this post
    France are in already triable position, poorest country in Europe, unemployment rise up to 26%, Government failed to paid their employees, electric run out, society in mess,
    In this situation wine cheating is normal.
    Poor France 💯

  10. When I am in Paris, I don't visit cafes or bars. I normally eat at my favorite place. Also, I am the wrong person to be cheated on wine-red or white. If I ask for example a glass of Sancerre, and the server gives me an old one or not Sancerre, I send it back. This should be a habit to avoid scams.
