Farah Saadia gets scammed in Nathia Gali
Pakistani actress and beautiful television host Farah Saadia has warned tourists about an alleged fruit scam in Nathia Gali and urged visitors to be careful when buying fruit from roadside vendors.
In a video shared from the hill station, Farah claimed that some vendors sell leaf cones advertised as fresh local cherries.
According to her, only a few cherries are placed on top, while the rest of the cone is filled with leaves and unripe, sour plums.
Showing the contents of the cone, she said the fruit being sold as cherries was actually unripe plums made to look appealing.
She questioned why vendors resort to misleading customers.
She also added that tourists would still buy the fruit if it were sold honestly.
In her next part she requested the vendors to market their produce truthfully, saying visitors come to enjoy local products and should not be deceived.
She encouraged tourists to check what they are buying before making a purchase.
