BoingBoing: Man hunts for poo-squirting con artist in Delhi[*1]

Sam Miller, the BBC's former South Asia correspondent, is looking for the person who squirts poo on his and other people's shoes in New Delhi's Connaught Place. It's part of a scam - foreigners get a squirt of poo on their shoo when then aren't looking and then a shoe shiner down the road points it out and offers to clean off the poo, for a fee.

Not the poo-guy hunter, the poo-squirter--or one of them, anyway. We had a run-in with one of them. I had to get mildly physical with an elbow to shoo him away.

UPDATE: BoingBoing link fixed.
