Brazilian territory lives each year an increase on inflow of foreigners tourists.These tourists bring with them not only their luggage but also numerous images about the country, images that will guide their manner of thinking and acting in the Brazilian territory.Some stereotypes so observed in Brazilian culture like trickery, knack, carnival and freedom, lead to an erroneous interpretation about Brazilian culture, giving the tourists the feeling that this is a licentious country where everything is allowed.This research proposes to show how the intercultural differences can lead people to jail based on the research on how tourists understand what kind of behavior is or is not proper in Brazil.The main methodological action of this study was the analysis of news reporting cases of tourists accused of some offense in Brazilian territory published on web.We used the studies of Richard D. Lewis and Geert Hofstede, authors that present concepts about culture and multiculturalism, and whose categorization model about culture are used as a parameter to our research, to the choice of informants and to the data analysis; and Roberto Augusto DaMatta, a Brazilian anthropologist who studies Brazil, its dilemmas and contradictions.Through the studies of these authors, we show how and why were built the wrong images about Brazil and in what manner this interpretation can lead tourists to behavior improperly
