Dolianova: Six people reported for cyber fraud against a winery.

They pretended to be employees of a company with which a winery in Dolianova had commercial relations , and thus managed to obtain the payment of a large sum of money .

For the six people, all residents of the province of Palermo, the scam was unsuccessful: they were unmasked by the Carabinieri following a complaint from the legal representative of the Sardinian company.

The investigations allowed the six individuals to be traced to the bank account to which the payment was made , which can be traced back to one of the suspects. From there, the money was then transferred, via multiple banking transactions, to other Italian and foreign accounts held by accomplices, thus making it difficult to trace.

The individuals involved have been charged with fraud and money laundering.
