B.C. senior defrauded $7.5 million in long-term cryptocurrency scam
Burnaby RCMP are warning the public after a senior was defrauded $7.5 million in one of the largest personal scams the police detachment has ever seen.
With the woman’s trust gained, the scammer then convinced her to invest millions of dollars into a cryptocurrency wallet on an online trading app. Police believe the app was a fake, designed to appear like a legitimate trading platform. The woman thought her problem was solved, though, when someone using a different name reached out to her and said he could get her money back. She invested more money and was again scammed.
