Experts say that nowadays everything is going online. Most of the people are booking hotel tickets online. Taking advantage of this, thugs are offering cheap travel or more facilities at lower cost. Many people are falling into this trap. Along with this, they are also committing fraud by creating websites similar to those of big travel companies.
