| Italian Guy Giovanni, Emporior Armani, EA Collection leather Jackets Italian Guy Who Asks for direction to Lincoln Tunnels with New Jersey Plate Numbe |
| 10th of Oct, 2011 by User216484 |
| An Italian guy driving a white Jeep with New Jersey plate number asked me for direction to Lincoln tunnel on the corner of fifth Avenue and 26th street on 10/10/2011. After that he told me he would give me a gift of three Armani Jackets as he need to fly to return back to Italy that night. He works for Giorgio Armani in Italy and his money was stolen at the club and he need to pay for the rental car when he gets to Airport. He showed me his passport and ticket say that to give him $500 to cover his cost and will give me the 3 jackets. I told him i don't have any cash and felt sad that he acted so distress so i told him, i can go home since i don't live far and i can scrap to give you $250 and when you get to Italy call me so we can find a rightful buyer for your jackets since i wouldn't like to rip anyone off just b'se he has lost his money. I was actually thinking of giving him the money without taking his jackets, but he insisted that he will have to pay taxes if he take the jackets back to Italy. I began to be suscpicious as he was changing his stories from working for Gorgio Armani to a businessman. But i was determine to help the guy, So I gave him $260 and there he goes. Fortunately, he is on my building camera from the point he came into the building, inside Elevator and leave the house. After he left I went online to see if he is not a scam Artist. I could not believe reading the same story from other people who came across this guy. The question is, should i report this guy as he is clearly captured in our building camera and probably he is a known scam artist and deserve to be in NY1. He takes advantage of people good faith for his greedy and selfishness. Not knowing that that is not a way to make a living, scaming people. |

| I think this is a large organization not just one person. One of them got me today in Caverlton shopping center, Maryland. Looking for direction for I-95 North. Didn't lost anything but just need to get rid of the remaining jackets after the collection show at Maryland convention center. Italian Passport, lot of money (dollar and euros), rental car etc.. 3 jackets initially proposed at half the price of one i.e 600$. Finally got them at 100$. Jackets look very good and the deal was not bad, I accept though not convinced of his story. But he seems disappointed. watch out because someone else will really pay high... |

Just got slimed by the bastard! Beverly Hills off all places. $700 for 3 "leather" jackets and a bunch of nice EA watches which don't even work. I have a bag full of 7 watches in nice cases but they don't work and I realized that a few minutes after I gave him the money. It all looked great. He seemed really cool and I can't believe I fell for it. He preys on your sympathy to help a guy out. He mentioned he wanted to get a MacBook Pro for his little daughter in Italy and that his cards didn't go through for some reason. Said he is a rep from Armani in Italy and printed out these nice circular cards.
Drove in a White Chevy SUV. I am going to call the Beverly Hills Police and let them know. They take these things a little more seriously than LAPD since they have more resources.
Goodwill is going to get 3 jackets very soon which I hope find a home somewhere nice. |

| Just got scammed at the Home Depot parking lot, dundas and 403, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. SOB!!! How did I get scammed when I know that these mofo's are out there?!?!? $400 for 4 crap jackets. Sorry friends and fam - you're getting fake gear for Chirstmas now!!! They say there is a sucker born every minute - I guess this is the website we all go to when we grow up??? Damn Guiseppe! I'm just happy I'm not the only one... At least it was only a few hundred and not some serious ponzi scheme taking my life savings! Let this be a lesson to us all - if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is. |

pintoo jewellers in new jersey, Edison, area also cheated by that person. He gives 6 jackets to Mr. pintoo & He said that I am a Model & Company gives me free jackets. These are very high price jackets & I am going back to Itly. Company is giving free jackets to me. So you take the jackets & give me 500 US$ for this all. Mr. Pintoo gives money to him & he gave the jackets to him. May be this is the style of that guy to sale the jackets by fake stories.

Has foreing money but no dollars. We become friends! I help you you help me... They are good.. Be carefull. |

| Do the fake jackets have 'Made in [Country]' tag? If not, they are smuggled into USA. Selling them is illegal and a crime. Report it to police and try to stop this scam. |

| Same guy appeared in the restaurant parking lot today around 8:00PM in Iselin, New Jersey. He asked me address for Newark Liberty Airport. After I gave him directions. He mentioned the same story as he is Italian, hardly speak english. Not looking to pay tax if takes it back to Italy. Offered six jackets for half the price of $350. I offered him $160. He said Ok... He goes like...I have no problem with money...showed me a bunch of cash money at the same time asked me for $20 more for gas once given $160 cash. At that point I realized, this guy is making up all the story. I followed the guy to see if he goes on the directions which I told him. Guess what...he immediately made a turn in a different direction. I knew the guy was fake but not 100% sure. My question is...Who ever got those jackets...are they real leather jackets or fake??? |

I also encounter this same guy at Kroger Parking Lot (Westhiemer/ Elm street In Houston, Texas. With same story line from A-Z except for, he claims the 4 Black jackets with one Brown suede like were left over from international fashion show just ended in Galleria. He asked for $500 I told him, I do not have such amount I ended settling for $150 for the 5 jackets,
Galleria is part of Houston where the top notch elites shop in Houston.
He was so convincing, he also show me his Italian passport and airline tickets also claim the Jeep he was driving was a rental car He have a flight to catch back to Italy on that same day and trying avoid paying excess luggage. I never thought I will ever fall a victim to scam artist, This fellow even gave me his business card that support his claim. When I got home find out that the Jackets are fake. Under the made in Italy tag, is the actual tag with made in China. |
