A story that had shaken the community ends with a happy ending CaiazzoThis morning the Carabinieri They returned the gold jewelry to a woman over seventy, the victim of a scam by the so-called "fake carabiniere," which took place on the afternoon of February 19th.
The elderly woman had been defrauded under the pretext of alleged legal problems involving a family member. Using alarming tones and clever artifice, the scammers allegedly managed to extract approximately one hundred grams of gold jewelry, before quickly fleeing the home. A carefully staged ploy designed to appeal to the victim's fear and emotional fragility.
The immediate call for help to the Single Emergency Number was crucial, however. The report allowed the soldiers of the Company's Operational and Radiomobile Unit to Caserta to quickly activate the search and intercept the alleged perpetrators shortly thereafter, managing to block them and recover all the stolen goods. The operation led to the arrest of two people, held responsible for aggravated fraud.
The jewels, held at the Carabinieri headquarters for formal procedures, were finally returned to their rightful owner. It was a deeply emotional moment for the elderly woman, who was able to regain what had been stolen from her through deception, but it also signaled a strong signal of the State's presence in the area.
The incident confirms the Carabinieri's constant vigilance in combating scams targeting the elderly, a particularly hateful phenomenon that continues to affect the most vulnerable segments of the population. The advice remains to be wary of requests for money or valuables made by claiming to be law enforcement officers and to immediately contact 112 if you suspect anything.

It seems like good news to me but I still know some things that don't add up, the police or the Carabinieri shouldn't act so easily, the question of reporting to 112 is correct but many elderly people don't understand the numbers so they are easily fooled, it would be better to have more frequent information and checks.
