Negli ultimi giorni alcuni soci ci hanno contattato dicendoci di aver ricevuto una email in inglese scritta da una non meglio precisata Alessandra Raneri. Non tutte le email sono identiche nella forma e nel contenuto (in alcuni casi il mittente è un uomo), ma il messaggio è sempre lo stesso: un inglese sta progettando un viaggio in Italia e sta cercando prestazioni di counseling, come suggerito dal suo medico.
La parte della email che fa pensare ad un tentativo di truffa è l'ultima, dove il mittente si propone di pagare in anticipo le prestazioni. E' infatti assai probabile che, rispondendo positivamente, cercherà un modo truffaldino di effettuare il pagamento.
Oltre a questo, avendo inviato la stessa email a più persone residenti in città e regioni diverse, è comunque da ritenersi che tale email sia un fake. Al momento abbiamo registrato un centinaio di contatti, ma il numero dei counselor contattati è destinato a salire.
Si riporta una delle email che cirolano:
Da: "Alessandra Raneri"

Hello,
My name is Alessandra Raneri; I will be going on my annual leave on the
15th of November and I will be coming to Italy on holiday for 1 month. I
would be staying from Sunday 17th of November 2013 to Wednesday 18th of
December 2013. I require the services of a Personal Counsellor, though
this could be done rather flexibly for the entire period of my stay. I
will require your services for 2days each week and for 1 session of 1hour
or 1hour/30mins each depending on your availability.
I recently got divorced having been married for over 17years and I have
been finding it difficult to cope after the breakdown of my marriage. I am
unable to sleep well, poor appetite, anxiety, I feel low, insecure and
always generally unhappy. I have lost all confidence and am finding it
very difficult to work or socialize. My doctor says my mood is clearly a
sign of depression and advised me to see a psychotherapist or counsellor
who will be able to talk with me on a regular basis, which will help my
confidence and revitalize me all over again. Over the past 1 month I have
hired the services of a personal counsellor and I find each therapy
session very relaxing, refreshing and energizing. I find that the more we
discuss and talk about my issues the better I feel.
Since I am going on a 1 month holiday I would like to have a psychotherapy
or Counselling program during my stay in Italy. My Counsellor here in the
UK recommends I take at least 2 sessions each week while I'm on holiday in
order for me to continue my rapid progress. I believe the more time I
spend talking with you, by the end of my holiday's I should be feeling
revitalized and eager to come back home to make a fresh and joyful start
to my life again. I would greatly appreciate your thoughts, recommendation
and the total costs for your services (number of sessions: 8).
I'm 43 years old and a senior accountant, working with Puritan Foods
Limited here in the United Kingdom. I will be happy to pay in advance of
my visit to guarantee your services during my stay. I also speak Italian
language, so we can have the therapy sessions either in Italian or English
at your Clinic/Studio. I look forward to hearing from you, many thanks.
Best regards,
Alessandra Raneri

Dunque... occhi aperti e attenzione.
