VIDEO | Pedestrian scam returns to Rome

In the Don Bosco area of Rome, a man is filmed simulating being hit by a car while crossing a pedestrian crossing

ROME – “ATTENTION in Rome, Don Bosco area. For days we have been notified of this individual who gets run over on a pedestrian crossing and then asks you for money”. A new report from Welcome To Favelas, the social channel that has now become a true sentinel of street news in Italy. The video shows a man walking on a sidewalk while talking on the phone in a casual manner, at the pedestrian crossing. He waits for the arrival of a car and clearly tries to make contact with an object, probably a bag, which he has in his hands. “Look at that infamous man, he did it”, comment the authors of the clip .
