Conman faked having a heart attack in 20 restaurants to avoid paying the bill


A CON MAN has faked having a heart attack to avoid paying the bill.


Before being imprisoned, Aidas J., a Lithuanian resident of Spain, conned 20 eateries in the city of Alicante.


He would collapse to the ground through out his acts, clutching his chest to simulate being in excruciating pain.


The manager of El Buen Comer, one of the restaurants the con man conned, told the US Sun, "It was very theatrical; he pretended to faint and slumped himself down on the floor."


It wasn't until he performed his skit twice at El Buen Comer that Aidas's fictitious heart problems were discovered, despite his repeated requests for medical assistance. 


A second employee of the restaurant told the Spanish newspaper El Pais, "He went down on the floor, shook his head and pretended that his chest hurt."


Aidas (seen here being taken into custody) went so far as to ask for medical help for his false heart condition and was only discovered when he attempted to perform his skit two more times at a bar in El Buen Camino, where someone called the police.

Aidas even requested medical attention for his fake heart problems and was only found out when he tried his skit twice at El Buen Comer (pictured)


According to local authorities, Aidas poses as a Russian visitor who is illiterate in Spanish while dressing in "designer clothes" as part of his act. 


In an effort to alert nearby eateries and deter the scam artist from "striking again," the management of El Buen Comer forwarded Aidas' photo to them.

A second restaurant owner who was attacked by Aidas claimed that before pretending to have a heart attack, he had ordered multiple glasses of pricey whisky, a Russian salad and a main course such as entrecote or lobster.


Having turned down two fines for his theatrics, the con artist is currently serving a 42-day jail sentence.


Aidas only committed'minor offences' because each bill he skipped was only for a modest amount, ranging from €15 to €70 (£13 to £60).


He was detained multiple times throughout his two-month criminal spree, but each time he was released because the amount he owed the restaurants was negligible.


 In an attempt to keep the con artist incarcerated longer, the owners of the eateries that were conned wish to jointly file a complaint.


The total charge for the dine and dash instances is €766 (£666).

Kanye West's titanium dentures, worth $850,000, are considered 'permanent' and surpass the concept of veneers or grills

Featured Imaged Credit: Instagram @Kanyewest Kanye West reportedly paid more than $500,000 for experimental dentistry created by himself. It should come as no surprise that Kanye West and 'implants that are like nothing that has been done before' are mentioned together. He's a man who doesn't take things lightly, and his most recent financial decision was reportedly to spend $850,000 on palladium and platinum teeth. And the oddest part of all? His teeth are all still intact. Credit: Instagram @Kanyewest The implants are termed as 'fixed-prosthodontics', and he designed them with the help of medical and dental professionals. A person familiar with the matter said : "They are, as the name suggests, fixed and permanent, but this goes way beyond veneers or grills."And his implant is unlike anything done before." He collaborated with the so-called 'Father of Diamond Dentistry', Dr. Thomas Connelly, who made and fitted the dentures. The rapper s...

The 'luckiest man in the world' who survived death and won the lottery twice

Image
Featured Image Credit: 9News Your chances of winning the lottery are tiny, roughly one in 45 million, so it is doubtful that any of us would win a large fortune in our lifetime. However, trucker Bill Morgan won the lotto twice. Bill's heart stopped for 14 minutes in June 1998, but he was miraculously revived by physicians. He wasn't out of the woods just yet, as he ended up in a coma for over two weeks. After being engaged in a terrifying vehicle incident, Australian Bill was proclaimed 'clinically dead' by health specialists, yet he outperformed expectations. Bill was out and about one day when he decided to purchase himself a scratch card and was happy to learn he'd won a brand new car - a Toyota Corolla worth $30,000. When word spread of his dramatic reversal of fortunes, a Melbourne television station called Bill to tell his story. While filming the feature, the 9News Australia TV crew requested him to duplicate his victory with a new scratch card, which he duti...

Dog says ‘hello’ in ‘English accent’, leaving people people baffled

Dog says ‘hello’ in ‘English accent’, leaving people people baffled Featured image credit: Jam Press/Tik Tok @fuggersandcompany Dogs have long been known for their cleverness, but a chihuahua has apparently reached a new level of intelligence, as it can speak' with a British accent.  Of course, most dogs are trained to bark when their owners tell them to ‘speak’, but this isn’t your typical woof. It’s a sophisticated, well-chosen delivery of the word ‘hello’, as if it’s coming out of the mouth of a well-dressed university professor. But the amazing thing is that the word doesn’t come from a professor, but rather from a dog named ‘Fuggers’. You heard me, didn’t you? In the video below, Fuggers shares her greeting with her owner, Shana Gilbert, who lives in Bedford, UK. The video begins with Fuggers fidgeting, as if she’s trying to get Shana’s attention. She wags her tail and shuffles along the floor, but then stops dead in her tracks as she decides that words will have more impact....
