Two citizens of Seneghe have triggered the investigations, reporting the scams suffered to the Arma. They had searched the net for offers for the purchase of pellets, ending up in the aforementioned sites and paying the scammers a total of 1,200 euros. Without receiving anything in return.
The military, having collected the complaints, managed to trace the 40 sites opened by the seven people in which they were fake data, addresses and telephone numbers.
