Do you know the way to the airport?
I have now been approached by three separate individuals in as many weeks trying to sell me cheap suits from the back of a car. The DIFC seems to attract them, i.e., typically well dressed individuals with dodgy Italian accents and the same opening banter each time. Is it a case of caveat emptor or am I missing something here?

Ahh, the Armani suit scam. Interesting link, thanks for that. Sounds like an episode from OFAH.

Maybe Moon Flower is trying to make money on the side to pay for that Villa, dog walker, posh cat etc etc etc

Glad to find out this week that there are still top quality Italian threads to be had on the streets of Garhoud if you loiter in the sun long enough.
Given the location he'd clearly found the airport, but needed directions to Abu Dhabi. |
Re: Do you know the way to the airport?
I'm sure I encountered them a few weeks back outside my building in the Marina.
Asked for directions to Abu Dhabi then started on the where are you from, how long here etc At this point I just said got to go, good luck etc. 100% sure it was the Armani scammers.... |

Re: Do you know the way to the airport?
Next time I'm asked for directions, I'm going to ask if they have any suits to sell.

He was wearing a great pair of gold mirrored sunglasses, I would have bought them.
