/Sounds like "ehs" (as in "egg") + "kah" (as in "car") + "MOH" (as in "more") + "soh" (as in "solo")/

Meaning

A suspicious, distrustful person who is always on guard and never takes anything at face value. In Colombia, calling someone "escamoso" means they have a sixth sense for detecting scams and lies, they question everything and are nearly impossible to fool.

Examples

Don't be so paranoid, nobody is going to rob you.

That guy is super suspicious, he doesn't believe anyone.
