Guelph Police Daily Update 07Jan2025

Residents are reminded to be cautious when dealing with individuals online after a Guelph man lost $188,000 US in a cryptocurrency scam.

The victim reported he met a male in the summer through an online chat forum and believed the two knew each other from childhood overseas. Between September and the end of November the victim transferred $188,000 US through a series of transactions for the purposes of buying cryptocurrency.
