The Superbonus is a tax incentive introduced by the government to promote the energy upgrading of buildings. However, as is happening more and more often in the presence of new opportunities, fraud is just around the corner. If a Superbonus scam is discovered, it is important to report it promptly to the competent authorities. The first thing to do is collect all possible information about the suspicious activity, such as the names of the people involved, the addresses of the websites, the telephone numbers at which you have been contacted. Subsequently, it is necessary to contact law enforcement agencies or legal advice specialized in tax matters, to make a formal report. In this way, not only are we helping to put an end to Superbonus scams, but it also protects assets and the right to savings. It is important to always be vigilant and to be well informed before undertaking the purchase of any service that concerns the energy upgrading of buildings

How to report a Superbonus scam
In recent months, there have been several cases of scams related to the tax breaks provided by the superbonus. Fraudsters disguise themselves as false operators in the construction sector, often using the names of famous companies to gain the trust of the victims. The objective of the scam is to convince the client to sign a contract for the renovation of the building, requesting an advance of money to obtain the documentation necessary to take advantage of the benefit. In general, fake companies disappear immediately after receiving the deposit and the perpetrators of the scam are lost track. These episodes reveal the need for greater attention and prudence during building renovations, especially in view of the increase in interventions foreseen by the superbonus. We recommend that you contact professionals in the sector, preferably trusted, to avoid cases of fraud and ensure that you enjoy the enormous advantages offered by
the superbonus.
Superbonus 110
In the last period, there has been an uncontrolled spread of offenses related to the 110% Bonus (commonly known as Superbonus). This form of fraud, which mainly involves unscrupulous construction companies, exploits the government’s will to encourage the renovation of buildings through fiscal support at national level. False printouts, inflated invoices and work never done are just some of the tricks used to take advantage of the situation. It is important to underline that the fight against these offenses is essential not only to protect the investments of honest citizens, but also to ensure the proper management of public resources and the development of the economy in the area. We therefore hope for decisive and timely intervention by the competent authorities to stem this phenomenon, also through awareness-raising and information campaigns on the
subject.
Penalties
The criminal superbonus represents an important tool to combat fraud in the building renovation sector. This tax incentive, introduced by the 2020 Relaunch Decree, provides tax and contribution breaks for energy upgrading of buildings and seismic improvement, but may be subject to fraud and abuse. Therefore, it is essential that the authorities in charge ensure adequate supervision and control over building recovery initiatives in order to prevent possible scams and ensure the correct application of the law. The fight against the superbonus scam requires the involvement of all actors in the construction sector, in addition to the collaboration of public bodies and professional organizations, which must work together to ensure legality and transparency in building recovery operations. In this context, the criminal superbonus represents an effective response to the prevention and fight against wrongdoing, but constant regulatory monitoring and updating is necessary to ensure the full effectiveness of the incentive and the protection of investors and
citizens.
