The things I’ve heard are shops charging more for tourists or short changing/refusing to make change, pickpocketing, or people trying to force some service on you then trying to charge you for it afterwards. Or for things that are mainly bought by tourists selling fake stuff, like fake gems or saying something is made of gold when it’s not or stuff like that.

Stuff like that is hardly unique to India. People say the same things about lots of countries.
