“There is a package for your nephew. You will pay cash on delivery to one of our representatives”. The phone call did not fool an over-eighty-year-old from Atripalda, in the province of Avellino, who was supposed to pay 1.800 euros to receive the phantom package from the scammer.
He immediately warned his son, a deputy inspector of the Police on duty at the Police Headquarters Napoli, who in turn alerted the Carabinieri of the Provincial Command of Avellino.
The military stationed themselves and blocked the scammer at the door of the old woman's house. He is a 22-year-old from Naples, already known to the police, who was arrested and transferred to prison in Avellino.
