Subject: URGENT: VULNERABLE KOORI YOUTH - [TSN NOTIFY 824 - 2006, FEBRUARY 14]
Dear Colleagues
I'vebeen contacted by a subscriber who is very concerned about a flyerthat's making its way around Sydney's Indigenous community, andno-doubt further afield.
The flier, attached for yourinformation, claims to offer the job opportunity of a lifetime to 4Kooris aged between 18 & 24. The flyer advises that successfulapplicants will be whisked away for 8 months on the Greek Island ofKOS, where accommodation has already been arranged for them. Returnedtickets are also promised.
In an effort to determine thelegitimacy of the advertisement I called Mr Joe Parazakoni (the contactperson mentioned in the flyer) at 12:30 today. I advised that I wascalling on behalf of my daughter, a 19 year old Koori girl namedJacinta, who would love to travel.
Iexplained that Jacinta's mum and dad are old fashioned folk who'd likea little information about this amazing opportunity before puttingJacinta on the phone to arrange an interview. I also said thatJacinta's elder sister would probably come with her for an interview,just to keep her company. After this initial introduction, theconversation went like this...
Joe: "First, can you tell me where are you are?"
Me: "We're in NSW. Is that a problem?"
Joe: No, that's good. Where in NSW?"
Me: In Sydney, the southern beaches area."
Joe: "That's great 'cause I'm located in Sydney."
Me: "Can you tell me what the job involves?"
Jo:"Well what it is, it's that I've opened a bar on KOS which is a smallisland in Greece that's for tourists and I'll be employing 14 'RRs'altogether, 4 Koori and 10 European to make sure the guests are happy.The job is for 'PRs'."
Me: "I'm sorry, I don't quite understand."
Jo:"It's alright. What they will do is spend 4 days a week on the beachenjoying themselves and mixing with the tourists and 3 nights workingin the bar to keep our customers happy, to show them a good time andyeah, that's all." It's a small Island and most of our clients arefun-loving European tourists."
Me: "So really all Jacinta willhave to do is make sure the customers are enjoying themselves and allher airfares, accommodation and meals will be covered and she'll get awage as well, will she, is that right?"
Joe: "Yes, that's right. And the wages are very good"
Me: "Just one last question before I hand you over to Jacinta..."
Joe: "sure!"
Me:"Actually it's Jacinta's mother's question. She wants to know ifJacinta will be wearing clothes while she's working in Greece?"
Joe: I'm sorry, I didn't hear the question..."
Me: "I said, Jacinta's mother would like to know if there's any nudity involved?
Joe: "Click! Beep, beep, beep....."
Ihope that you will consider sending this email thither and yon via yournetworks, especially to services involved with indigenous youth.
Rest assured that relevant agencies, including law enforcement, have been advised.
Regards
Garry

What a creep!
Nasty stuff, isn't it. Thanks for getting right onto it. Yes, vulnerable young people could be taken in by this.
Re: What a creep!
did it ever occur to you mindless people that he hung up the phone because he knew they were just wasting his time.talk about crying rape
Paternalistic prudish, racist crap from Garry Mallard
Nothing wrong with working in the sex industry.
It is a massive and legitamate business.
Not enough Aboriginal people are involved.
Adults (18-24yo) dont need your protection or warnings.
Adults can make a the decision for themselves if they want to work in the nude or not.
Old enough to use drugs and make that decision
But not old enough to voluntarily become part of the sex industry.
So where are all the parents of the junkie kids? Why have you given them a free pass Laurel?
As for your comment "I would rather see Aboriginal kids furthering their education than entertaining rich white men."
Who cares what you think. Why should your racist paternalistic opinion matter. If Aboriginal kids want to fuck rich white men and get paid then so what.
p.s. Working in the sex industry is furthering your education.
PULEASE, Mods, Chuck out this utterly sexist violence!
And get pack-raped by rich, ugly, stinking, white men, "Adult industry"!
Hang on
Hang on a minute,
There is a big difference between legitamately choosing to work in the sex industry and being coerced to travel to a foreign country with promises of easy money for bar work only to end up in a brothel. There are numerous cases where people find they have no choice but to work as prostitutes to pay off their 'free trip and accomodation'.
And get pack-raped by rich, ugly, stinking, white men, "Adult in
Anonymous want's me to get pack raped and he / she pleads for the mods to get rid of violent posts.
What a pity that you all think young Aboriginal adults are naieve simpletons.
I am NOT against violence - i.e. against you sexist thug
it's called necessary counter-violence.
Anonymous ot only supports violence in the form of pack rape
But also thinks that young Aboriginal people aren't as smart as white people.
Your a real nice type.
Most of these racist, sexist
Most of these racist, sexist feminist types are into thuggish violence as well.
They're the shame of the Left.
Geez, unbelievable stupidity!
Castrate Paedophiles!
Re: Geez, unbelievable stupidity!
Or bomb these kind of tourist industries?
Justified by christian or Muslim morality?
18 to 24 is adult.
Rape is another thing.
Typical capitalist logic
So, 'sex industy', when a company tries to trick Aboriginal youths into becoming prostitutes, it's advertising, and when a group organises to advise Aboriginal youths not to do so, they are interfering in a personal matter.... right.
Isn't it obvious that if businesses have the right to advertise then other groups have the right to campaign against them. I guess it is unless you're highest value is making money.
On the criticism itself, I cannot judge the whole of the 'sex industry' but two criticisms have already been made here. First, that the people involved are being tricked. Second, that being far from home makes it easy to do things like force them to work so they can get back home. It's pretty obvious that even by 'liberal' standards, what's going on here is not OK.
great post
...studies show a significant proportion in the sex industry have serious psychological disabilities and as such are very vulnerable, maybe even as high as 50%. Sort of explains the prominence of drug use amongst sex industry workers. A sad business on display in a very unglamerous way every delivery run through east sydney.
sex industry is right
garry has done a good thing in letting us know about a shady charator looking for 4 young people with charactorisitics like our bali mules...yeah?...seems to me all he's done is engage in verbal masterbation again...
Garry, wheres a transcript of the conversation you had with police? What have you really done to stop Mr Joe Parazakoni entrapping our unprotected youth?
Why is everybody assuming
Why is everybody assuming this job was to do with the sex trade? I called the number and spoke to Mr Parzakoni. The condition of the return air fair was that I had to stay in his employment for the term I was working in Kos. I would be stood outside the bar in evenings getting people on there holidays from european countries, mainly English, to come in to buy drinks, I could then sit with them for 10 minutes, during the day I was required to go to swimming pools or beaches and hand out leaflets whilst sunbathing, shopping etc. I would be allowed free drinks while working and my living arrangments would be taken care of and I would receive a wage at the end of the week. I have a friend who went travelling to Europe and she did work in bars in Spain. There are alot of English youths who go out to Spain and Greece and Italy to do this work, They have a summer in the sun, meet lots of new people, work and have fun. All done fully clothed. Perhaps the leaflet wasnt thought through before being printed and worded wrongly. I dont know what the police or authorities can do about this as no law has been broken. I think its a case of advertising gone horribly wrong.
Re: SYDNEY ALERT !!! - Fwd: [Redfern-W] VULNERABLE KOORI YOUTH
It appeards that Mr Parazakoni has 2 names. His alias "Giuseppe Fazzari" was accused of rape on the island last year by a young British girl. "Fazzari" was let out on bail after spending 4 days in jail being questioned and put before a sort of court. He is an Australian National with a history of crime and desruption here in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Anybody that comes into contact with this man shouyld be aware that he is a conman and a professional fraudster of the worst means.
Re: SYDNEY ALERT !!! - Fwd: [Redfern-W] VULNERABLE KOORI YOUTH
To the person who posted this story could you please fill me in on the where abouts of this girl or some details of the incident as I am also looking for this piece of rubbish and dont know where to start looking
Re: SYDNEY ALERT !!! - Fwd: [Redfern-W] VULNERABLE KOORI YOUTH
Joe Parzakoni (this his actually his mothers maiden name-his surname his Fazzari) is in the UK at the moment and will shortly be returning to the Greek Island of Kos, no doubt intending to con even more people like myself. The girl in question in the rape charge as far as I know is in the UK. She was working at Crossroads Bar, Kardamena at the time. He has been charged of other things apart from this rape charge and owes lots of money to lots of people-including me.He's a professional con man, with 3 passports! Can anyone tell me if this man is actually wanted by the police? He has to be stopped.
Re: SYDNEY ALERT !!! - Fwd: [Redfern-W] VULNERABLE KOORI YOUTH
Hi, Joe was arrested on a rape accusation. As far as I am aware he paid the bail money after a brief court appearence and was let out. He had to report to the local police station weekly. At the end of the 2006 season he left for Australia as he usually does.
He returned and was managing ***** Bar on the island, presumably for ***** from Zoom club as the bar was Bonkers preiviously. At my last workings out he has left people in a debt of approx £100,000. One person was taken for £65,000 of that. He also had money lent against his mothers house I am informed. i dont know what Michelle has given him, or if he has taken / obtained money from her. i cant get any contact details apart from the ones I have for his mother in Kos and his brother in Sydney.
Joe has 2 passports. 1 Australian in the name of Joe Parzakoni. 1 Italian in the name Giuseppe Fazzari. there is no UK or Greek passport. I know this as fact.
I also know that the police in the UK and Australia are aware of what he is up to.
I do not usually use this site and can not give out my contact details for my personnal safety from Joe.
All I can say is that if anyone has googled this man trying to find out more. What I have written is the TRUTH, GOSPEL TRUTH. I will swear on anyone, anything that this is TRUE.
