Scammers Impersonate Carabinieri to Trick Businesses in Garda Region
They impersonate Carabinieri when making phone calls to hoteliers, shop owners, artisans, and restaurateurs in Medio and Alto Garda, offering subscriptions to army magazines.
These are not military personnel, but scammers who, from time to time, claim to belong to finance, the police, fire brigade, or municipal police.
Recognizing scams
They often propose subscriptions to nonexistent magazines or publications that have nothing to do with the law enforcement.
Therefore, be cautious and immediately notify the genuine Carabinieri — simply dial 112 — as soon as you suspect you have been targeted by someone who,
wants money, ceases to appear.
