Ontario police warn of rising scams where fraudsters pose as law enforcement, demanding urgent payments.
The Ontario Provincial Police are warning residents about a surge in scams where fraudsters impersonate law enforcement, contacting victims by phone, text, or email to claim they are involved in crimes like money laundering.
Scammers create urgency, demanding immediate payments or cryptocurrency transfers, often citing fake fines or arrest threats.
The OPP stresses that real police never ask for money, personal information, or financial transfers over the phone.
Victims are urged to hang up and verify any suspicious contact by calling the OPP’s non-emergency line.
The agency reports these scams are increasingly sophisticated and targeting vulnerable individuals across Ontario.
