Scammers Impersonate Carabinieri Offering Fake Magazines in Garda

They impersonate Carabinieri when calling hoteliers, shop owners, artisans, and restaurants in Medio and Alto Garda, offering subscriptions to the arma magazines.

These are not military personnel, but scammers who, from time to time, claim to belong to the finance police, the police, the fire brigade, or the Comune police.

How to recognize scams

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

Therefore, be cautious and immediately inform the real Carabinieri — simply dial 112 — as soon as you suspect being targeted by those who,

after obtaining money, no longer show themselves.
