They pushed a 59-year-old woman from Lanusei , pretending to be expert financial brokers, to make two transfers of 4,000 and 3,500 euros to current accounts linked to them. Then, they made her download a program on her cell phone to have full control of the woman's phone and remotely manage the operations of her current account.

The woman, realizing after a few days that she had been scammed, contacted the police, who, by tracing the recipient accounts of the transfers, identified the three scammers , a 69-year-old and a 59-year-old resident in the province of Biella and a 58-year-old resident in the province of Latina.
