Police warn against buying from sellers of "luxury" dishes

The Slovenian police are warning citizens about a recurring scam involving individuals posing as sellers of high-quality kitchenware, cutlery, or motor tools. These fraudsters, often organized groups of foreign nationals, deceive residents by claiming they offer genuine products from renowned brands at significantly lower prices. In reality, these items are typically low-quality replicas or poor-quality goods with much lower value. The scammers are described as persistent, manipulative, and sometimes aggressive, and they may enter homes under false pretenses to steal valuables. Police advise against purchasing from strangers on the street or uninvited visitors to homes, recommend keeping doors locked even briefly, and encourage reporting any suspicious activity to the police via emergency number 113.
