Title: Scam man about again
Post by: sunseekers on May 24, 2017, 21:46.
A couple of nights ago a friend here in Altomar 2 had the 'can you lend me money for a locksmith' scam man at her door at 10.00pm. He had the nerve to come in her gate and into her garden and shouted her by name, thankfully she came to her door which had the grills locked and she told him to clear off or she would call the police which he did, he had even used the name of someone else she knew to say, Ive tried xxx but he wasnt in!! Is this a new tactic, its definitely the same man from the description, please pass it on.

I sent the details of this scally wag to the editor of the GA magazine a couple of weeks ago, he has sent the details off to the council / Police, so will probably get a reply in December.

Surely this guy isn't still playing this old card. Do the police have long tea breaks out here or just sit in a lay by with their feet up . Why is he still on the loose after all the pictures and evidence that's already been given.

As posted quite a while ago;

Unfortunately under Spanish law, non-violent theft of amounts under €400 are not covered by the criminal code.  This is how he and others like him get away with it time and time again.

Yes he was unlucky enough to knock on a English policeman who contacted his Spanish police neighbour

Your man is on the loose again, he  called at 2 houses near the Carabassi strip, Monday night about 8pm.
One of the owners suggested he should disappear , only to find next morning his car tyres were slashed.
Coincidence or not!!
