Basically same story every one has already reported. I was just buying groceries when this guy came to me in his SUV. He told me he was in a rush to the airport -- showing an Italian passport. I remember his passport said he was born 1987, which would mean he's in his mid-twenties (assuming the passport is not fake, but then who knows). This time he told me the taxes to take his fine leather jackets back to Italy would cost him over 5 thousand dollars total -- and he showed me a paper that had detailed information on how that was being broken down.

He offered 400 but then I told him I was not interested, I didn't have money to buy and that I was in a rush too. Then he told me he would lower the price to 300 for the 4 very fine and luxurious jackets. He used a lighter over it, and because they were all supposedly worth over 1k's he was just gonna leave them to me for 300, simply because he did not want to pay all the taxes involved and was such in a hurry. Long story short, I was convinced and once I got home, I found out they were fake. They look almost real leather, but they aren't. They are just totally fake.

Greed

AUTHOR: Robert - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, May 12, 2011

It always amazes me how people can fall for this.  But the reason they do is for one reason GREED.  You think you were basically getting something for next to nothing.

He stated that he would have to pay taxes of over $5,000 on 4 jackets that are worth over $1,000 each.  I know taxes are high but a tax of over 100%...and that didn't tip you off?

Okay so you think his story is real and he will just let them go for $300 total.  What if they were stolen goods?  Do you really think you would be able to convince a judge that you truly believed his story and were going to get leather jackets for less than 10% of the retail value.  You would have to be a lot smarter than that guy to be able to convince the judge, and if you were you wouldn't have bought them in the first place.

The one unique thing in your case is that you look like you got all 4 for $300(or $75 each), where most people who fall for this usually get one or two for that price.  This is probably close to what they are actually worth.  So while you didn't make a few thousand dollars, you also didn't really loose anything.
