Burnaby RCMP say the case is one of the largest personal scams the detachment has ever investigated.
Burnaby Mounties are issuing a warning after a local senior was defrauded out of millions of dollars in an "elaborate" long-term cryptocurrency scam.
Police say the scam escalated over several months, with the scammer creating a "friendly relationship" with the victim and communicating in Mandarin by phone, text, email and through a chat app. The victim was then allegedly contacted by someone using a different name, saying they could help her get her money back.
