Two arrests for a “aggravated scam»To the detriment of a” gold buy “by Mirto di Crosia.
A roded system that is gradually spreading on the territory. The two subjects stopped, in fact, presented themselves at the shop specialized in the withdrawal of the gold used by first asking for an evaluation on the precious object that they intended to sell and then defining the transfer for an economic counterpart agreed between the parties.
The person in charge of the store, through a verification with the contrast solutions, verified that the object proposed for sale had all the characteristics of gold jewelry. But things were very different, because The gold one was only the external part of the object, or a sort of coating of the structure which, on the other hand, was completely in brass. The percentage of the gold present was minimal compared to that of the less valuable common metal.
An articulated scam that is sometimes not detected even after the merger of the precious, since the presence of the Ostone has the consequent effect only to degrade the overall quality of the casting obtained. What potentially appears to be an articulated scam has been documented through a technical report that allowed to ascertain that on the overall weight of over 5 grams of the precious, the gold that made it was the residual part, that is, the one corresponding to 0.2 grams.
The arrested people, already previously referred for similar crimes, were transferred to one in the Castrovillari prison, while the other was subjected to “house arrest”.
