An Italian couple stole 50,000 euros from a woman in the
Sicilian city of Palermo after convincing her they were vampires
who would impregnate her with the son of the Anti-Christ if she did
not pay them.
The man, a cabaret singer, and his girlfriend took the money from
their victim over four years by selling her pills at 3,000 euros
each that they said would abort the Anti-Christ's son.
Police uncovered the fraud after the 47-year-old woman's family
became concerned when they discovered she had spent all her
savings, local news agencies AGI and ANSA reported.
