A rather young looking Italian male, approaches in a red, Ford Fusion, (vehicle may be different if another may come into contact with this individual.) He is dressed somewhat orderly, speaks Italian, and claims to be somewhere around the age of 21 or so. Tells a moving story about wanting to go back to Italy, but lost all of his money gambling at one of the casinos in Las Vegas.
Says he was staying at the Belagio Hotel & Casino for business, and that he is a fashion designer and works with Georgio Armani line of products. He shows 3 different jackets, one made of lamb skin (black), another is leather (also black), and the last is brown suede. There is a emblem of the Armani company, however the products do not carry the certificate of authenticity. The real certificates are included with the tags, and are written in Italian on original and true Armani Products.
He offers 2 of the jackets as a friendly offer for helping him financially to get back home in Italy. He further offers to repay the debt via Western Union and shows a foreign credit card and claims that the ank is closed in Ital and will not fund him his money at the moment to pay off his debts. This guy will show rental car reciepts depciting a certain amount due, and will request a bit more money in addition to that in order to pay for the rental fee and still be able to eat.
I was fooled into giving $231.00 in total to this scam artist. His items that he offers look genuine, but are in truth far from the real thing. Noticeable items are the bag he uses to carry them in. The word, "Reportage, " is spelled on the bag as, "Refortage." So, don't be conned by this guy too!
