What you should have done was give the suit to your tea boy . He would have had a genuine Primani suit and you'd have felt a lot better about getting ripped off by some two bob chancer

Scam is still alive and well as of today, Mr Fabio Della Valle (gave me his business card and all) drives a white Audi approached me today on Al Diafa Street and offered me the great deal of 3 Armani suits for the cost price of one - only 2000 Euros wow what a bargain!! (not). Did not fall for it. watch out for smooth talking Italians in white Audi's

I came across these guys last year in Media City. The ones I met were definitely Italian, because I spoke to them entirely in Italian.

that guy has stopped me twice in Tecom. He also stopped my g/f father.

I told him the first time it wasn't Armani to begin with and he said I can have it for free. Told him to keep it.

5 weeks later......................

Just a note to let you know that Mr. Fabio Della Valle and his Armani Suit Scam have now arrived in Singapore where he is active in the CBD during lunch time. Guess when it sounds too good to be true it usually is!

Unfortunately I ignored the several red flags and am still not sure how I ended up with a suit from this ***hole. So if you're googling and read this message - it's a scam!
