Scammers Faking Law Enforcement Contact Hotels and Businesses in Garda
They pose as Carabinieri when calling hoteliers, shop owners, artisans, and restaurateurs in Medio and Alto Garda, offering subscriptions to magazines of the force.
These are not military personnel, but scammers who, from time to time, claim to belong to the finance police, police, fire brigade, or municipal police.
How to recognize scams and how to respond
They often offer subscriptions to non-existent magazines or magazines 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 are being targeted by those who,
after obtaining the money, cease to appear.
