I didn't see these guys when I was there in December. I really loved Tokyo for it's lack of scams/touts/hawkers. It was the first major international city I visited where I felt really safe and didn't worry about being harassed.

I'm not sure if it's a scam but around Asakusa there are still people collecting money for the 2011 earthquake. When I was there with two visiting friends they asked them for cash but they looked kind of dodgy and it seemed like they were only going after tourists. They might also have been from some horrible cult or something using the earthquake as a pretext to raise money mostly for themselves.
