Scottsdale apparently had its very own version of Steve Martin’s Ruprecht in the 1988 film “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.”

That’s right; this Don Juan of deception coaxed at least six women into “investing” in his “company.”

This wasn’t Leombroni’s first brush with barratry. The man already has spent two years in prison after a different fraud conviction, and told police he thinks he may have a gambling problem.

Messing around big-time with the checkbook, and possibly the heart, of a Scottsdale woman? Sure sounds like a risky wager to us.
