Italian police on Tuesday
arrested four people in connection with a suspected online scam
which defrauded thousands of unwitting clients.
Police in Cremona said the arrested persons faced charges of
conspiracy to commit online fraud, tax fraud and money
laundering.
In the alleged scam, they sold on e-commerce sites wines,
petrol vouchers, electronic products and other goods at
competitive prices, advertising them on national TV and radio.
The goods were paid for but never delivered, police said.
