He is about 6'3 tall and very skinny.
Be alert.

I failed to get a photo on that occasion so well done, we can all now see what he looks like. He is personally responsible for a number of different types of scamming going on around GA and has been getting away with it for far too long. Please be vigilant and let's try to nail this scumbag.

I will chase him ....................and i WILL catch him :)
I had him in my sights, unfortunately I didn't have an offence to detain him for but he was rattled when I said I was going to the Police with his photo. We need the registration and details of his car put on here, I was told he drives around in a hire car Fiat 500 which is an unusual choice for a chap 6'02.

If a conman sounded implausible, he wouldn't make a living.
Because you're away from home & relaxed, don't think the whole world is a better place.
I love life here, & back in Cornwall, but have to be realistic, there are people all over who look to make from the unwary or naive.
Stay alert wherever you are &: enjoy.

By the time I'd turned around the roundabout and went back he'd vanished. I'll be looking out for him though!

you might be watching this discussion. And you still owe me 45 Euros. I found that you've been acting like this for more than 10 years:
http://www.torrevieja.co.uk/torrevieja-forum/12/7817?p=69978&hilit=scam#p69978
How does it feel? You're clever, you do have some sort of charme (although I didn't fell for it), you speak excellent German without accent (from Hannover'?), you can obviously imitate a Dutch accent. You could apply for German social help, but why running around in these beautiful places on the Spanish coast and telling lies? (The German social system ensures that you have a flat and enough money to buy food and clothing, you have medical insurance, but of course it doesn't cover holiday trips or drugs more expensive than beer or cheap vodka.)
Would you rather if it were so, that you had a flat down there, had been robbed, had a wife and two young children? I simply can't understand. And your teeth need a dentist, that's the first thing I noticed about your appearance. So these 40 Euros here, 40 Euros there can't be a real income. (Ok, perhaps you have a phobia to visit the dentist, and it's not a question of money.)
I have one more question. Did you take two (cheap) cigarette lighters from my flat? There's nothing else worth taking there, you might have recognized.
I was disappointed about myself, silly me, not recognizing that you are a guy who wants to take me in. Apart from wanting money, there were a lot of these guys around in the 80ies in Germany.

@all
As to the beggar in front of Lidl with the cute doggie, I approached him and asked, if he knew 'Karl-Heinz'. But seems to be a different thing. He says he's Polish, but speaks German very well. (So accents and languages may be confused or faked ...) He has a place to live, he simply wants to buy 2 beers a day and food for the dog. I gave him one Euro, but as soon as I got to my car, I saw a man approaching him, (not a client of Lidl).
Is this organized 'beggaring'? The guy with the dog is doing his job, between 1 and 3 or so he has 'siesta', but his boss gets the most of the money? I found an article in a German paper about beggars with dogs. Of course the dogs are mostly more attractive than the beggars with cartons saying, I have no job, and so people are more inclined to give some money for their well-being. But when the puppies get older, they are left somewhere on the street ...
I don't know what to make of all this. Ok, in Eastearn Europe people are more helpless, if they don't have a job, but as for Germany I'd say it's a voluntary decision to choose a life like this. If you're in psychogical trouble, you could as well find help without paying for this, on the condition, that you're intelligent, and our 'conman' obviously is.
Next time I go to Lidl or elseware, I'll buy some dogfood or a beer or a chocolate bar. The boss will be angry ...

Would have thought there were higher priorities, but hey-ho.
Post by: John H on December 09, 2016, 14:11.
The Local Police of Santa Pola, during the last week, arrested eight individuals for different reasons, including careless robberies, theft in supermarkets, searches and catches for breaches of restraining orders. In the latter cases, specifically, one due to gender violence and another to stay away from schools (the detainee was not local). Through the Department of Public Safety and the Police Headquarters has proceeded to increase the number of identifications and controls on the public road for crime prevention both in the center of town and in Gran Alacant. The priority objective is to increase the level of prevention in view of the possible committing of criminal acts on certain dates, such as Christmas, which due to its commercial character and the dynamization of the population is more susceptible for those who want to make their August in December .
In Gran Alacant, prevention work will be important, through selective safety checks. Controls for the detection of drivers who are under the influence of alcoholic beverages will also be increased. They remember that the drink and the driving are incomplatibles, so they advise the figure of the designated driver and the use of public transport.
I doubt that the poor lad who needs cash to pay the locksmith will have been aprehended.
