Polish hostel scam

May 21 2009
A growing number of Polish workers are being dumped at hostels by ‘friends‘ A gang of Poles are charging their fellow countrymen ¬¨¬£250 each for the promise of work and accommodation, then dropping them off at the capital's homeless hostels and disappearing. A Westminster hostel told The Pavement that a growing number of Polish workers had been dumped on its doorstep in the last couple of months; they had thought they were there to inspect the facilities and stay. They had been collected from Luton, bussed down to London, and then abandoned at the hostel, all after answering the conmen's advert on the internet.
