Information on crime

Street crime is very common in conakry. Criminals particularly target visitors at the airport. Pickpockets or persons posing as officials will offer assistance and then make off with bags, purses, or wallets. Being met at the airport by travel agents,business contacts, family members, or friends, helps to avoid this possibility. In addition, there is a high incidence of residential break-ins. Commercial scams or stings have targeted foreigners, including U.S. citizens. These scams potentially involve the U.S. citizen business partner in illegal activity that may lead to threats of extortion. The ability of U.S. Embassy officials to extricate u.s. citizens from unlawful business deals is extremely limited.
