A Roman taxi driver recounted his encounter with the scammer. While he was busy taking a customer to her destination, a man appeared on the side of the road: “he made that gesture with his hand that deceived me, it seemed to me that he was telling me ‘pass’ and I passed. “. But then “he came at me and then and there I was struck. The ass protector uses the bag he has in his hand and throws that car at you: it’s the one making the noise“. So the taxi driver pulled over as soon as possible, with the customer in the car. “I went back on foot to see if he would fit but he wouldn’t. You can see that in his head he realized that I was a taxi and said ‘I won’t screw him’.” In short, “this guy comes at you on purpose and then tells you ‘see, you’ve done damage to me, like ripped jeans, and he takes money from you. But if you try to call the police, he tells you to fuck off and goes away. . I’m not telling you not to stop me, but be careful because you never give him the money in your hand.”
