They wanted to cheat him, but he - a 66-year-old from Suelli - sensed that something was wrong and turned to the carabinieri , avoiding the worst.
The man wanted to insure his motorcycle at an affordable price and for this he tried to look for offers on the internet.
And, right on the web, he found a really convenient proposal, made by a woman , who pretended to be the agent of a well-known insurance company: 145 euros for a year .
Before concluding the signing of the policy and making the payment, however, the man carried out a check at the headquarters of the insurance company, discovering that the agent in question did not exist .
Having the certainty of having ended up in a trap, the man then presented himself to the carabinieri filing a complaint .
Meanwhile, the fake agent has gone untraceable , even disappearing from the web. The military then launched investigations to try to trace the scammer .
