Yesterday (11-2-2010) evening, 40 year old Italian man on parking place near shopping center in Kosice/Slovakia, with a story that he lost all his money in casino previous day and needs money for a gas to get home".
He was in black Fiat Punto with Italian plates/. Speaking english, italian, probably spanish?. He also showed me his passport and some bank cards, called his wife and son/.
In a good will, that I am helping , I borrowed him 390EUR (to earn this money I should work more than month)?. He also gave me some clothes (fake Armani?), as a "present".. Now I see, that this is worldwide spread fraud?.
From his passport I have this info:
Name: Luigi Zinzi
Passport number: F573376
Born: February 6th 1967
And two italian telephone numbers, which he gave to me:
00393343192892
00393312210072
He also showed me some paper, stamped by police in Naples..
Be aware! You can find reports about these “Armani” guys from whole Europe and USA! This is not minor trickery, it seems to be organized crime! 12975c7

| 1. Written by Be carefull!!! They are in Car on April 17, 2012 from vienna, wien, AT I finished work today and was waiting for a taxi, then i realized i forgot my keys...in this moment an Audi A3(white with Italian plates from Milano) stopped and asked me for the way to a city or something i doesnt understand because i already turned around... I stopped and go back to the car. There were 2 people in good looking suits in the car but he asked me and i dont understand, he was talking and talking.. "I work for an Italian designer, and he is a capitalistic ***...and so on" So i said to them.."If you need help finding direction drive down the street about 200meters there is a train station and police station where you an ask for the way" Suddenly he starred at me very angry when he heard "police station" He began to talk very angry in italian...it only took a few seconds and they were driving away very fast. |

| 6. Written by Marky on June 9, 2010 from london, england, UK Just got done by this scam in Bristol England. Guy pulled next to me as I stopped was extremely persistent and would not let me go unless I bought one of his jackets. £20 is all he got out of me just to get rid of him. The jacket is OK to wear doing gardening/DIY and saves a night down the pub. |
| 7. Written by Johnny on March 25, 2010 from bratislava, bratislava, SK Be aware, something similar happened to me as well. On March 25th in Bratislava (local part Ruzinov) on a parkplace near hotel Nivy at about 12 o'clock. Similar story, an Italian man well suited in age of about 40, offered me 3 peaces of on first sight true armani clothing (later on realized to be fake), telling that he has just finished presenting of a new Armani collection in the building of Incheba, Bratislava. He told that he wouldn't use it and if I want I can buy it for a symbolic price, he offered me two jackets and one suit for 350 Euro. Nothing would be more obvious of a crime here in Slovakia, but this man spoke only Italian and a little bit of Spanish and came out of silver Opel Insignia with Italian plates, very pesuasive. He also told that he's comming back to Milan and if I wouldn't buy it the clothes he showed me would end up in garbage. There were two of them. The second one seemed to be older was just sitting in the car, also well suited. These men were so luckily persuasive, that I beleved them. The only luck was I managed the price to 180 euros for the clothes thinking of making a good business. Unfortunately, ten minutes later in work I googled for "REA Emporio Armani" and found this article ![]() |
