Scammed by fake Italian con artist.. I really hope this was some kind of joke. But when I realized how dumb I was, i was broken. So ystd when I was walking near the lakeside, a guy coming out form a car park asked me for help(an old guy in front of me ignore him). I talked with him through the window at first, he said he needs direction to the airport and he does not have data on his phone. So I give him the direction of airport with my google map and he took a pic of it. Then he thanks me and suddenly asked do I like fashion. He said he is a designer for a brand in Italy and have leftover clothes from the fashion show. (I got in his car to talk) And he want to get rid of it Becuz of the duty tax. He keep promoting them to me. And I didn’t know how to react so I thought I would just take them. He insisted giving them to me. So I finally accepted his bag with four leather jackets in it. Then he start mentioning a problem he had. He said he needs to pay the rental car fee but his bank account is frozen Becuz he didn’t notify his Italian bank prior and only have 50 euros on him. He explained it in broken English and with an Italian accent. I said I have a withdrawal limit and didn’t know how to help. But he keep asking and he was very friendly. So after understanding his need and talking , I agreed to call my bank to increase the limit to 2000 (he needed 1200 cad). He drove me to the bank I and withdraw 1200 to him. And when I got back, he got a call from the rental company and said he needed 200 more for paying in cash and some more for dinner. So I took out 400 again for him. He promised me he will transfer the fund by e transfer tmr at 10:30 after he arrived in Milano and got to the bank. He said he also left his contact card in the bag he gave me.

Looking back: it was very suspicious that he asked for 400 more, clearly he was trying to yoke more out of me. And the caller id of the rental car is just “rental car company”. And it’s also a common technique for people to advance some form of payment/ valuable to you and then ask ur for more help. I don’t really know what have gotten into me to give him so much amount of cash. I guess I’m a pretty gullible softball. Irl, when ure talking to scammer they will leave u with no time to think and they would have a somehow trustworthy charisma(I thought about should I really pay him, but the sense of obligation took control of me). As soon as I get back home, I search for his contact card and his brand. The card wasn’t there, the brand of google is followed by legit question mark. And I read articles and Reddit bout ppl from all over uk USA, Australia suffering from similar scams with varying amount of loss. I just didn’t know wut to do and was doomed by the fact that I lost the living expense for my remaining two months here. I called the police and am still waiting for them to call me for a report and also report the the cra(?). If you are reading this, please do not trust anyone so easily and do not give anyone money or in advance. PS. He goes by the name of Anthonio D. from Milano, he drove a black sedan. Anyone have any advice to getting some money. I am thinking about just fasting and buying less grocery 😢
