The investigations relating to 51 year old man was scammed arose from the complaint filed by the victim at the Baunei Carabinieri Station. The man, interested in purchasing a car put up for sale through the site “subito.it”, has poured 800 € to the seller without ever receiving the vehicle.

Il 31 years old from Villagrande Strisaili, instead, was contacted via messaging applications “Messenger” and “WhatsApp” and convinced to pay 150 € to buy spare parts for your car. The seller, identified in a 36 year old resident of Porto Torres, after having set up a meeting to finalize the negotiation, subsequently communicated that he had had personal matters, asking for and obtaining further loan of 130 euros.

The 31-year-old, suspicious of the scammer's repeated justifications, sent his own IBAN to request the money back, without ever receiving it.
