An esteemed professor, a stolen identity and a Kafkaesque spiral of unfounded accusations: this is the dramatic story of Vittorio Natalini, a mathematics teacher at the Flacco high school in Portici, living in Greek's tower.
Since January 2023, Natalini has been forced to defend himself from a series of fraud charges, all of which can be traced back to the fraudulent use of his personal data.
Five complaints in two years, summons to the police station, exhausting interrogations and mountains of documents to present to prove one's innocence in the facts. A surreal situation that, in four cases, thanks to the help of the lawyer Amato Del Giudice, ended with the full acquittal of the professor. However, the fifth accusation, advanced by a Sicilian victim, led to the referral to trial before the court of Marsala.
The mechanism of the scam always seems to be the same: a man, pretending to be Vittorio Natalini, offers advantageous insurance contracts. To sign the policies, he sends false documents, obtaining the payment of sums that rarely exceed 300 euros, deposited on prepaid cards. The victims, often unaware of the scam, discover the deception only after weeks, sometimes during routine checks by the traffic police.
"It's a nightmare. I'd like to wake up and find out that it's all over, but it's not like that," says Natalini, worn out by the legal costs and the inconvenience faced to prove his innocence. Now he's preparing to face the trial in Marsala, determined to prove once again that he's a victim of a scam system that continues to torment him.
The preliminary hearing on January 8th did not accept the evidence that had previously exonerated Natalini, dragging him into a new chapter of this judicial affair. A case that highlights not only the risks of digital crime, but also the flaws of a system that can transform someone who suffers identity theft into a defendant, forced to defend himself from unjust accusations.
