Dirty shoes scam in Common scams
A shoecleaner says your shoes need cleaning, and he points out that there is dirt on your shoes. When you take a look, there really is feces or any other kind of dirt on your shoe (a lot usually). He offers to get them clean again for a very high price.
What you most probably did not recognize is that a few meters before that cleaner a helper has thrown that very dirt onto your shoes.
This scam can also be combined with pickpocketing and has been observed in Cairo and Delhi.
