A cool video has emerged of a savvy American tourist uncovering an attempted gold ring scam on the streets of Paris.

The 'Paris ring scam' typically involves fleecing unwitting travellers of their money after a worthless ring is 'found' nearby.

The scammer then pretends it is a highly valuable object for which they have no use, and suggests the victim can keep it providing they offer some payment.

In this video, the filmer is aware of the trick which is being played on him, managing to outwit the hustler by proving the worthlessness of the piece of jewellery he is offered.
