Fulton Market Visitors Are Being Warned About Fake Parking Attendants

  • On June 29, 2025, the Fulton Market Association alerted Chicago drivers about fraudulent attendants demanding $20 to park in unauthorized private parking areas in the Fulton Market and West Loop neighborhoods.
  • This scam has persisted for the last three months, mostly occurring on weekends, with fake attendants confronting drivers and claiming parking control.
  • Scammers wear fake security attire, use flashlights, shuffle cars into lots, and incidents have included heated exchanges and near violence recently.
  • Roger Romanelli, president of the association, revealed that over 100 drivers are deceived by the scam every evening, prompting police to increase surveillance in the area.
  • The association and police are developing a strategic plan, while drivers are advised to stay in cars, lock doors, and forward scam texts to 7726.
