A 101-year-old woman in Messina narrowly avoided falling victim to a scam when a neighbor intervened just in time. She received a phone call from a man pretending to be a friend of her neighbor, claiming that the neighbor was in trouble and needed 4800 euros to get out of the police station. The elderly woman, worried for her friend, started gathering as much cash as possible and even offered a valuable ring to a person who was supposed to meet her outside her building to collect the money. However, she encountered another neighbor on her way and told him about the situation, leading to the discovery of the scam. The scammer is now being sought by the police, who are investigating the case and looking at surveillance footage from the area.
