One scam I encountered- a UK bloke (or one with a convincing English
accent) approached me outside Barcelona airport with a sob story about
needing exactly 37 euro to get back to the UK.

Its not crime, but I was surprised that one of the living statues
in Palma was from Essex.

Well, to be fair, I'm sure that plenty of the ones at Covent Garden or
on the South Bank in London are _not_ from Essex. Or London for that
matter!
