Misadventure for an unemployed 24 year old from Pabillonis .
The young man had put an iPhone 12 pro up for sale on Facebook for 500 euros.
He had been contacted by a 37-year-old from Sinnai , known to the police, who had asked to be able to pay with a money transfer . After sending him a copy of the bank transfer, he met the victim in Cagliari in via Roma for the delivery of the telephone .
The transfer, however, was late in entering and so the young man called the carabinieri who reconstructed what had happened.
The scammer had cleverly crafted a bogus document : that payment never started.
