Aggravated fraud through unlawful use and falsification of online payment instruments, impersonation and ideological falsehood. This is the accusation that a 22-year-old Neapolitan will have to answer, denounced by the carabinieri of Samassi.
«We could define it – the investigators explain – the scam of the fake scam. The victims are a 36-year-old and a 27-year-old, originally from the town of Medio Campidano. The scam into which the victims fell consisted of being persuaded that they were the victim of an online scam. The clever interlocutions of the fraudster led them to carry out a fake protection procedure which ended with the transfer of around three thousand euros to an alleged protected transit account, pending the regularization of the procedures by the bank, which would thus put them protected from imminent unauthorized access. Of course, this phantom account was attributable to the fraudster».
The latter, to complete the scam, to divert the investigation, after having withdrawn the money, also went to falsely report to the Carabinieri of Naples the loss of the card attributable to him, in which the money had arrived.
