Answer

How can you protect yourself from family-related fraud in Mallorca?

The safest approach is to treat money requests from relatives with the same care as any other payment. Ask for written booking confirmations, invoices, and proof of who should receive the money, especially if the request involves travel or large transfers. If something feels unclear, contact the company or authority directly before sending anything.
