I spent 3 weeks in Greece and while no doubt most people are honest and hard working, it was the one place that I have ever travelled where I felt like people were constantly trying to rip me off. They are so nice when they think you have a lot of money but do a complete 180 when they find out you don't. I also had one of the people I rented from steal meds from my luggage.
I chalk it up to the fact that the people are starting to get desperate. They are getting really poor, but everywhere you go, there are signs of tycoonism.
