    SO listen up, this is how they scam you: They give you the clothing, and leave. In the meantime, they're keeping an eye on you. A few minutes later the guy returns and tells you that he made a mistake and gave you the wrong jacket / dress and askes for them back since they actually belong to an important client. When you give them back, they inspect the jacket / dress and point out that there's damage )a pre-existing rip or stain) and they demand that you take responsibility for damaging the clothing. They will argue and argue with you, saying that the jacket / dress costs like $5000 and that you ruined it. They ask you for the money to pay for it. After more argument, they tell you something like "Ok, it's my responsibility too, I will assume the cost of this. But at least give me part of the cost, say $500." And that's how they try to get you. If this happens to you, don't argue, or try to negotiate. Just tell them: No problem, I'll call the police and we'll wait here for them. We'll let the police settle this. If you do that, they will try to weasel their way out, ask you for at least $200 and if you don't budge and wait for the cops, they will take their garbage clothing and scram.

    I thought it was a scam like stolen property from their fake company (anyone can have a business) then they'd report it to the cops and somehow got paid for the stolen jacket. They really are fucked up and basically if they give it to you, you gotta pee on it and call the cops whenever you receive the jacket

    This exact same thing happened to me in Paris in 1996. In my case, the charming Italian guy gave me a leather Ferrari jacket, because of course, he was the head designer of Ferrari. Anyway, I accepted it because the jacket was actually really nice. He then gave me another one for my girlfriend -- all for "free." So I accepted after he assured me there were no "strings attached" and I gladly accepted. After that, he asked me if I could give him some gas money cause he had no cash, was out of gas, and of course -- late for his flight at Charles De Gaulle to Milano. When he realized that I literally had no cash on me except for a few francs, and I wasn't willing to give it to him, he took the jackets back and left. Basically, they guilt you into giving them cash for garbage products. For me, it's a lot of work for very little profit, but the truth is, there's a sucker born every minute...

    english: - do you live in moscow? - no, i live in a small city - st. petersburg? - yes, st. petersburg this is a russian equivalent to the part in the video where the italian scammer asked him if he comes from odessa, tourist said no, he lives in a small city, the scammer then asked kharkov? And the tourist just said yes, yes, kharkov. The thing is that kharkov isn't a small city at all, it has over 1mio inhabitants and is the second largest city in whole of ukraine, so the scammer had no idea about the ukraine at all. just like st. petersburg, which is the second largest and very famous city in russia after moscow, not quite a "small city".

    ​@@narthex1681 In defense of Americans/British I would say t's not "a pretty normal thing", Europeans are bilingual at most on average, if they happen to speak English to varying degrees, only some regions in Europe encompass multiple languages/dialects, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands/Luxembrug/Belgium area, Balkans, etc 3+ languages on average it's a crazy lie to shame Americans or Brits even further, and I'm a Catalan (European) myself, just saying. Also because 99% of Europeans who are bilingual or more than 2, are simply because these languages are all native to their land, like myself who spoke Spanish and Catalan natively since I was a toddler, and learn English and Portuguese on my own. Americans and Brits don't have any more native languages than English, which is the lingua franca of this century, unless they want to go abroad to live they literally have no incentive whatsoever to learn any other languages.

    These scams go two ways. You accept the "free" items at which point the scammer asks for some gas money as a gift since he was "nice" enough to give you some designer gear for free. As a decent human being, 9/10 they expect you to cough up. The second way is that there are accomplices of the scammer nearby who will accost you when the scammer drives off and either mug you or harass you until you give them the items or some money to leave you alone. Never accept stuff like this when it is offered freely, especially if you are a tourist. They are scammers and you can get in all kinds of trouble. Politely decline and have them move on. If they persist, remain polite and make up an excuse that you have to be somewhere and someone is expecting you. At this point you will be too much effort for them and they will move on to the next person.

    If you logically think about it, giving a gift could be considered just as rude as not accepting one. Why is it rude to not accept a gift?: maybe you don’t value the gift which then translates into a lack of value for the person. Maybe it’s the emotional response of rejection that is being imposed upon the gift giver. I believe that either way you look at it the gift giver is putting the burden upon the one receiving the gift. How can you think you are burdened by receiving a gift? My response to that is why do you think the world must continue to operate in a manner that is consistent with materialism. At the end of the day is it really all about the plus or minus of things? I don’t believe so. With that in mind you could reasonably say that it is rude to try and give a gift to someone expecting them to have the same values as you ( this puts pressure on the one receiving and who are you to impose that upon them?) sadly we live in a world where hidden intention or personal gain is always present, aka this video ( even if it wasn’t obvious you can almost always assume that there is gain of value somewhere ). So why is it rude if the person receiving the gift rejects when the person who is presenting the gift is the one imposing the situation in the first place? (The person receiving the gift could say how dare you make me feel uncomfortable in this situation, that is rude.) I would think that in an ideal world a person would be logical enough to realize that they might not want it and that is okay, but sadly we live in a world of illogical people. I think at the end of the day if people in general stepped outside of their own interruptions of the world around them and realized it’s not about them then this world would be a better place.

    Found elsewhere, this is how they do it. We were in Rome last week. Had just left our B&B to walk to the Colosseum when a car pulled up next to us and the well-dressed driver asked if we spoke English (yes) then asked for directions to the Colosseum. Then he started telling us how he is a manger for Giorgio Armani in Florence, showed us a folder of the latest designs and asked where we were from (Australia). Then he started on about his wife being from Australia etc etc. Then he gave us 2 coats ("leather and silk") telling us they were worth heaps of money, but we weren't to sell them. Then ... he asked for some petrol money ... €100 or €150. Fortunately we were also on our way to a bank and didn't have much cash with us, but foolishly we just handed over about €40 and he drove off. We went back to our B&B to leave the coats. Of course they are made of polyester and are very ugly - we can't believe how gullible we were and feel quite foolish about the whole episode. So as a warning to others - just be aware that this is happening in Rome. We can laugh about it now and are treating it as a story to relate when we get home!

A dude walked in, sat next to me and started talking in Finnish. I gave him a shrug. He immediately switched to German. I shook my head. Then, in a polished Oxford accent, he asked me for money in English. I got up and moved away. He glowered at me for a while, then he left. Who thinks about panhandling at 4 am in freezing weather? And if he took time to learn 3 languages, why can't he get a good job and stop scamming?

    The scam goes like this. On the passenger seat there are two jackets and one bag.Both jackets are on the bag. He shows one jacket and puts down as if putting it into the bag but it actually goes under the bag. The second jacket is shown to distract and cover the passenger seat and the bag. The the final part is producing the bag which you now think contains the first jacket. He knows at this stage if he has you or not because your greed will kick in and this is when the money is asked for. Just enough to keep you interested. The Jackets shown are real but the bag doesn't contain any. You pay because you think the first jacket is in the bag. You give him money thinking you got a bargain, he hands you the bag and drives off. Only when you look in the bag you realise there is no jacket only newspaper or a phone book. The same trick works with laptops and laptop bags and all you end up with is bottles of water or a phone book. It is effectively the three card trick using jackets, laptops, cameras or whatever instead of cards. It works by showing something valuable, switching it and preying on greed.

Here's how it goes down: he asks for a simple favor, like directions to the airport. Because you're such a good person for helping him, he offers you all sorts of samples of clothes and perfume, watches as gifts. They are leftovers from the trade show he visited, and since he cannot take them onto the plane, he gives them to you. He shows you a very official-looking invoice that lists the value of all these "free" samples you're now getting. Then, the scammer says he doesn't have any local currency and asks if you can give him some money-often a few hundred dollars (after all, you just received gifts worth over $2,500, right?). Of course, these gifts are worthless junk, not worth more than 20 dollars.

I deliberately parked some way away from the building to stretch my legs after driving up from Bath, that's why yer man zeroed in on me, he had all the spiel about having to catch a ferry back to Italy and he had to move the gear on to avoid paying 'import tax', even had a LHD car to complete the illusion. As I had just got out of my car, I couldn't clock the reg. plates. Walking to the building I thought to myself 'you've been 'ad mate!'. When I was getting back in my car having used the facilities another 'Italian' drove up and tried the same patter. My reply was a masterclass in finest West Country Industrial English!

Parisians would never leave the house dressed like going to a gym. Learn to have a non- interested look in your eyes. And as a girl in certain areas, don’t look young north african men in the eyes while walking on the streets. They sense unsecurity& may harass you verbally. But you know, Europe is quite pleasant . I made a cross country trip through Egypt recently. There you can’t walk 3 meters in peace. Especially in Cairo. 😡

    Man, I fell for this scam, haha. It happened to me in 2015 in Paris. I was studying abroad in Madrid, Spain, for a year, and my sister from the states came to visit me and we decided to meet up in London and then fly to Paris. We were walking down the street looking for a place to eat when suddenly a guy pulls up next to us in a car. We spoke to a guy in Spanish because I didn’t want to be identified as an American. He sounded Italian. Anyways, he tells us he’s some fashion director on his way back to the airport to go back to Italy and needs money for gas for his rental car. He said he’d give me a free leather jacket for whatever money I can spare. I think I gave him like £20-£50 because I didn’t have any euros on me. I was planning on keeping those pounds as a collection of foreign currencies I wanted to start. I legitimately fell for his scam and thought I simply got lucky to meet a fashion director. I’m usually very self-aware of scams but for some reason I didn’t think this was one. I ended up giving that leather jacket to my dad when my sister went back to the states and I went back to Madrid. It looked and smelled like good quality leather, but what do I know - I ain’t no fashion or counterfeit expert? It’s probably garbage for all I know. My dad liked the jacket, though, haha. After watching this video, I’m kicking myself in the butt for being so gullible and giving him so much money for probably a low-quality counterfeit leather jacket.

When I watch a crime show like The First 48 Hours for example, I am quite shocked at the number of policemen in Miami, Dallas (or other cities with areas where Spanish is the first languages) who don't even speak Spanish yet are supposed to solve murders committed in areas where most witnesses only speak Spanish. That, said British people also often only speak one language so it is not specific to American people but more to the fact that English speaking people rely on the fact that most foreign people have some kind of English. I am glad I am able to speak several languages myself not only because it is useful when traveling but also because when listening to the same news but from countries, you realise that each country has some kind of" tunnel vision" and a very biased and self centered view of the world.

So they are selling it for a couple of bucks to you out of kindness. They show you something that in fact is legit and expensive as bait and if you agree to buy they give you a bag with worthless rags.
