Six defrauded out of nearly $250K

A 40-year-old is facing charges after allegedly defrauding six people out of nearly $250,000.

An investigation started when Windsor police received a complaint about a person who convinced six people to invest a total of $244,778 into his incorporated business.

Through their investigation, the Windsor Police Financial Crimes Unit determined the money was never invested into the company.

On Tuesday, police arrested a man who was charged with one count of fraud over $5,000.

Investigators believe there may be other victims. Anyone who may have been affected is encouraged to file a report through the Windsor police website.
