And from The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe #6 (June 1983),

I remember reading The Maggia organization from old italian translations of Marvel Comics comic books but do you know if there have been some appearances in recent years too?

There probably were, but offhand I'm not sure where / when.

I always loved how close the name was to "mafia" so that there would be no doubt in people's minds as to who the organization was a stand-in for.

The Maggia have recently resurfaced in Daredevil.

Daredevil current series will come to an end, next November with issue # 36, but Marvel has already assured us that there will be "a new beginning" for old Matt Murdock (not that we would have doubted this!)
Marvel has announced the wedding of Kingpin and the current incarnation of Typhoid Mary, too, so they'll have some material for the new series which will come!

Wilson Fisk has always had dubious taste in women.
