This "Italian guy" who drives around an SUV stating that he is a designer and that he is on his way to the airport will try and scam you with his fake Armani jackets. He has AE and EA collections of these jackets. He has a short cut, about 5'6. Well groomed. Eye brows done with green eyes and a creepy smile.
He will come to you and ask you for directions regarding the airport and such. Then he goes to explain that he is a designer and works for dolce Gabana and yada yada. He will pull out his "fake" passport in green and kinda try to show it to you, but really doesnt. After, he will pull his Fake Jackets and light up a lighter on them explaining how they are real and how he does not want to take them back as he just finished living a collection show in nyc and blah blah. He says he will give you all 5 if you pay him money for him to pay off his "rented" SUV.
I did fall for it. I had all the suspicion in me but was very tired and was really in need of a dam leather jacket. I was going to cross reference his passport and an ID and didnt. Even after i gave him the initial payment for the first 5, he went and offered me 7 more for less then the original payment which i found strange. I mentioned to him that this feels like a scam and he went ahead to make sure he was really a designer and that he was leaving soon. He flashed his Passport once again with what it seems to be some plane tickets. Again, i bought it.
I paid him way too much. I wont disclose how much because is embarrassing to say the least. He went ahead and gave me about 11 of these fake jackets.
After i came home, i looked them and they sureley dont extist. I am wayy too trusting. If it sounds too good to be true, then really, it is too good to be true.
I learned from this mistake and sure hope no one else in the Tri-State area will get scammed like i did.
The jackets do look nice though. =
