Approached me in Costa Mesa, Ca in a bank Parking lot, with the story that he was opening a store in South Coast and wanted to give me some of his Designer samples ? Tried to talk to me in a broken Italian and asked if I was Italian ?
He showed me a passport with his home and name on it and also a rental agreement to try and prove who he was.
He then showed me two Leather Jackets that he claimed were worth 1000 to 3000 dollars.
Since I just got back from Rome / Milano/ nice / vience etc I was able to quiz him on certain aspects of Italy.
I then knew he was a fake. He told me a sob story how this girl that he was living with in the hotel took his credit card and charged up 8000 dollars and now needed to get 365 dollars to fly home to Rome. Big mistake as it cost more then 360 dollars one way to Rome. I got rid of him by saying (it was 3:00 PM ) as your flight is at 4:30 "Go to the airport and if you still do not have the money call me and I will come there and buy you the ticket.
Buy the way when I went over the coats they were real good fakes and the clothes he was wearing were very expenses designer clothes. He is a very good looking man about 25 to 35 in age and does speak Italian very good.
I forgot to mention that a giveaway was the passport as it was blue not dark red that Italy uses. Also the Pin on the bottom of the leather coat was not correctly put on.
