She was looking on the web for affordable insurance for her vehicle but ran into an online scam . Victim of the affair was a 56-year-old woman from Cagliari living in San Sperate . The woman, after finding an ad on the net, apparently sponsored by a well-known insurance company, took out the policy through an agent whose telephone number was indicated.

The victim was provided with an IBAN code on which he paid 512 euros . Having not received any receipt of payment and no documents certifying the stipulation of the insurance, she then went to a branch of the insurance company for more information, discovering that she had been scammed.

After the complaint, the soldiers of San Sperate managed to identify the person responsible for the scam : it is a 22-year-old from Sant'Antimo, in the Neapolitan area, who will have to answer for aggravated fraud.
