Tell us some horror stories about the hassles you faced when you flew into the airports of Third World hellholes! (Touts, Guides, fake officials, and beggars.)
What are your stories?

I don't get too worked up over touts and such, so I don't really have any colorful tales. Then again I don't look at most places as "Third World hellholes". Though the old setup for United Express at IAD might qualify as a hellhole.
