Italian police arrests fake prince of India

A man from the Balkans has been arrested in Italy after cheating people pretending he was a prince of India.

Dragan Dragutinovic (33) has parents from Croatia and from Serbia, but in Italy he ignored his roots and found it more profitable to present himself as a rich prince from India that had inherited a fortune.

It is believed his international frauds were as big as 50 million pounds, Serbian tabloid Alo has reported.

Dragan Dragutinovic was finally arrested in Milan under suspicion of a fraud involving the property business.

It is believed Dragan Dragutinovic had all together 16 different fake identities. He would take money in advance as a down payment on various deals and then would never appear to complete the business.

I think he's brilliant! A sort of Pink Panther. More fool the idiots who fell for it. No doubt their greed, gullibility and snobbishness was their downfall.
