In Montpellier, travelers should be cautious of pickpocketing, especially in crowded areas like the city center and public transport. Common scams include distraction techniques where one person engages you while another targets your belongings. Avoid unlicensed taxi services and always use official providers. Be wary of overly friendly strangers offering unsolicited help or deals. Staying vigilant in busy spots and keeping valuables secure helps ensure a safe visit.
