Scammers Impersonate Carabinieri Offering Fake magazine Subscriptions

They impersonate Carabinieri when contacting hoteliers, Shopkeepers, artisans, and restaurateurs in the Medio and Alto Garda areas, offering subscriptions to military magazines.

They are not military personnel, but scammers who each time claim to belong to finance, police, fire brigade, or municipal guards.

Recognizing scams

They often suggest subscriptions to nonexistent magazines or those unrelated to law enforcement forces.

Therefore, be cautious and immediately alert the Carabinieri — just dial 112 — as soon as you suspect you are being targeted by someone who,

if they have money, disappears without a trace.
