A man who wears gold chains, shirts unbuttoned far too low, drives a car he can not afford and believes that all these things make him an amazing person. A scamache is extremely full of himself and generally sleazy. A pinky ring or any excessive amounts of man jewelry is a dead give away. In some areas of the country, they are referred to as a "guito".
