Caserta, they sold fake insurance online: 3 investigated
They lured customers with fake websites by offering them insurance policies, which later turned out to be fake, at prices lower than the market prices. After the payment of the amount, made to prepaid or rechargeable cards, they sent customers false documentation, which often perfectly but illicitly reported the logos and format of well-known Italian insurance companies.
For this reason, three men, residents in the province of Caserta, aged 60, 39 and 25 respectively, will have to answer for the crime of fraud in competition.
