A 21-year-old Chinese student allegedly used dead bugs and used condoms to secure free hotel rooms. The student, known as Jiang, has been accused of using these props to make rooms appear unsanitary. The traveler would then complain and threaten to leave bad reviews, prompting the hotel to compensate him. “Over a span of 10 months, Jiang frequently stayed at hotels, sometimes checking into three or four different ones in a single day,” an unnamed Linhai officer said. However, several hotels recognized the pattern. Police say up to 63 hotels fell for the trick. (Oddity Central)
