2024.9.19 ontario provincial police (opp) have charged two people and continue searching for other suspects linked to door-to-door sales fraud, impacting more than 200 victims.
2 charged, others wanted canada-wide in door-to-door sales fraud across ontario
ontario provincial police (opp) have charged two people and continue searching for other suspects linked to door-to-door sales fraud, impacting more than 200 victims.
investigators in collingwood, ont. launched an investigation in 2021, later evolving into project nettle.
authorities learned that suspects posing as salespeople would attend the homes of older adults and vulnerable people to initiate frauds where victims “unknowingly entered into home service and/or renovation agreements at outrageous prices.”
opp said several victims believed they were getting free services, installations, and renovations through government grants or rebates.
the suspects would then use fake agreements to register notice of security interests (nosis), which were paid off by suspects using high-interest mortgages against the victims’ homes.
investigators said that, in some cases, this forced some victims to sell their homes due to financial losses.
extensive investigation leads to arrests
through project nettle, authorities conducted more than 200 interviews and determined that the fraud incidents were “financially, emotionally, and physically devastating for many victims across the province.”
two men, 39-year-old rajivan thillainadarajah of mississauga, ont., and 40-year-old sajjad ahmad of scarborough, ont., were arrested and charged with various fraud offences.
thillainadarajah will appear in court on oct. 3, 2024, with ahmad set for a court appearance on oct. 22, 2024.
three other men, 23-year-old anas ayyoub of toronto, 33-year-old muhammad waqar afzal of pickering, ont., and 28-year-old muhammad wasiq afzal of scarborough, are wanted canada-wide on multiple counts of fraud and one count each of laundering proceeds of crime.
anyone with additional information is asked to contact authorities, and those who suspect they have been the victim of fraud are urged to contact their local police.

warrants issued in ontario scam that defrauded people of their homes
opp says multi-faceted scam involves door-to-door sales, secret remortgaging scheme and shoddy home renovations
police have made two arrests and issued canada-wide warrants for three more people as part of an investigation of a scam that defrauded many people out of their homes and was first discovered in collingwood.
ontario provincial police have arrested and charged rajivan thillainadarajah, 39 of mississauga and sajjad ahmad, 40, of scarborough. they both face charges of fraud over $5,000. thillainadarajah also faces charges related to laundering proceeds of crime, possessing proceeds of crime and conspiracy to commit an indictable offence.
a canada-wide warrant has been issued for anas ayyoub, 23, of toronto, for muhammad waqar afzal, 33, of pickering, and for muhammad wasiq afzal, 28, of scarborough. they are all wanted on charges of fraud over $5,000, laundering and possession of proceeds and property obtained by crime, and conspiracy to commit an indictable offence.
the ontario serious fraud office estimates the door-to-door sales fraud victimized more than 200 people across ontario.
since 2021, collingwood opp has been investigating the scam, which was referred to the opp serious fraud office in 2022 and the investigation renamed project nettle.
det.-sgt. jason lloyd explained during an interview in february 2023 that he’s been investigating this mortgage fraud scam since it was first discovered in collingwood when police began investigating what, at first glance, appeared to be a civil case involving a homeowner and a contractor renovating the home.
the mortgage fraud was soon identified as a mult-faceted scam involving door-to-door sales, a secret remortgaging scheme done without the homeowner’s knowledge, and shoddy home renovations. its victims are all over ontario.
unknowingly, people have taken out mortgages on their homes, only to have the homes taken away when payments are not made. the owner of the home is often never aware payments are due.
according to lloyd, the victims are most often elderly people who believe they’re signing a service contract to get out of payments for things like air conditioner units or air purifiers.
and the scam started years ago when those air conditioners were first installed.
a door-to-door salesperson will later convince a homeowner they are overpaying for those services, and present some way they can get money back, for example through a class-action lawsuit.
the homeowner will later speak with a lawyer, often virtually, and will be prompted by the salesperson (who is off-camera) to answer specific questions a certain way.
“they believe they’re signing a legal contract to get out of payments, when in fact they’re actually signing mortgage documents,” says lloyd. “it is a legal mortgage, but it’s been done fraudulently.”
later, a cheque will arrive, disguised as the winnings of the fake lawsuit, but the money will be from the refinanced mortgage, which the homeowner still isn’t aware of.
“it’s their own money,” says lloyd. “then what they say is that the courts have ruled … you’ve won this sum of money … but the courts have ruled that part of this reward money that you’ve been given, needs to be invested into your house.”
they’ll be told the condition of their winning the lawsuit is to use some of the money for a home renovation. the home renovation contractors will over-charge, but because it’s less than the full amount they received from the scam, often homeowners will agree to it.
they are given options for what they can or can’t do in the interest of a “sustainable home,” and they get a quote, which is lower than the amount they received.
“and they’re thinking, ‘wow, i got the work done, i got all this cash in the bank,’” says lloyd. “but it’s their cash!”
organizers of this fraud then used the fake agreements to register notice of security interest’s (nosis) which are similar to liens against victims’ homes without their knowledge, states a news release from the opp. later, these nosis were paid off to the benefit of the fraud organizers using fraudulent, high-interest mortgages against the victims’ homes.
months, or years later, the mortgage defaults because of non-payment and the lenders take the home. sometimes it can show up after a person dies and the home is in the estate but has a mortgage with a high interest and late fees attached to it. in some cases, people were forced to sell their homes.
“the contract that they sign, it’s a bunch of legal jargon, but if you read the fine print … the payments are due per annum and you don’t get any notice if you’ve defaulted on a payment,” says lloyd. the interest rates are usually upwards of 25 per cent. “it’s scary. and we have victims like this all across ontario.”
opp investigators conducted more than 230 interviews for project nettle, and victims of the fraud were offered support from victim services throughout the process.
as a result of this fraud investigations, the opp are advising the public they can check for nosis registered against their home by purchasing a copy of your parcel register through the ontario land registry access at www.onland.ca.
“if you find a nosi against your home, the newly enacted homeowner protection act deems all consumer nosis registered before june 6, 2024, to be expired and allows them to be removed by registering an application to delete an expired nosi through a lawyer,: states the opp news release.
“the consumer protection act also allows you to withdraw from a contract within one year and get a full refund if a business or individual has misrepresented a product or service. products or services sold door-to-door also have a ‘cooling off period’ that allows you to cancel an agreement within 10 days.”
the serious fraud office had help and contributions from the following services: collingwood opp, barrie police, durham regional police service, guelph police, hamilton police service, ottawa police service, peel regional police, toronto police service, york regional police, waterloo regional police service, as well as the financial transactions and reports analysis centre of canada (fintrac).
investigators are asking anyone with additional information regarding this fraud to call the dedicated tip line at 1 (833) 941-5865 or email opp.nettle@opp.ca.
anyone who suspects they have been the victim of any other fraud is urged to contact their local police or anonymously to crime stoppers at 1-800-222- 8477 (tips) or online at www.ontariocrimestoppers.ca. you should also report to the canadian anti-fraud centre at 1-888-495-8501 or through their online reporting system. for resources on scams and fraud, visit antifraudcentre-centreantifraude.ca.

200多人受害！多伦多上门推销诈骗大案 2人被捕3人被通缉
安省警察局 (opp) 已指控两人，并继续搜寻与上门推销诈骗有关的其他嫌疑人，该诈骗案有200多名受害者。
安省collingwood的调查人员于 2021 年启动了一项调查，后来演变为“荨麻计划”。
警方了解到，犯罪嫌疑人会假扮销售人员，到老年人和弱势群体的家中实施诈骗，让受害者“在不知情的情况下以高昂的价格签订家政服务和/或装修协议”。
安省省警表示，一些受害者以为他们通过政府补助或回扣获得了免费的服务、安装和装修。
犯罪嫌疑人随后会使用虚假协议来登记“担保权益通知”（nosi），犯罪嫌疑人会用受害者房屋的高息抵押贷款来偿还这些款项。
调查人员表示，在某些情况下，这迫使一些受害者因经济损失而卖掉房屋。
通过“荨麻项目”，当局进行了200多次访问，并确定这些欺诈事件“对全省许多受害者造成了经济、情感和身体上的毁灭性打击”。
两名被捕男子，分别是安省密西沙加市39岁的 rajivan thillainadarajah 和士嘉堡40岁的 sajjad ahmad，被捕并被指控犯有多项欺诈罪。
thillainadarajah将于 2024 年 10 月 3 日出庭，ahmad将于 2024 年 10 月 22 日出庭。
另外三名男子，分别是来自多伦多的 23 岁anas ayyoub、来自安省皮克灵的 33 岁muhammad waqar afzal和来自士嘉堡的 28 岁muhammad wasiq afzal，因多项欺诈罪和一项洗钱罪而被加拿大全国通缉。
任何掌握更多信息的人都可以联系有关部门，怀疑自己遭受诈骗的人则可以联系当地警方。
2024.9.12 $1.7m lost in fraudulent scheme to help chinese students: bcsc
meiyun zhang pressured 3 people in metro vancouver into giving her over $3m, securities commission says
$1.7m lost in fraudulent scheme to help chinese students: bcsc
meiyun zhang pressured 3 people in metro vancouver into giving her over $3m, securities commission says
posted: sep 14, 2024
a woman defrauded investors of around $1.7 million that she said was intended to support chinese students and tourists, the british columbia securities commission (bcsc) has found.
meiyun zhang told investors she would use their money to support chinese students and tourists coming to canada, and in turn generate up to 10 per cent monthly returns without risk, the commission said in a decision tuesday.
between 2014 and 2016, the bcsc says zhang defrauded three investors in vancouver and richmond, b.c., pressuring them into giving her more than $3 million.
she told the investors their money would be used for a variety of purposes, including being exchanged for chinese yuan, helping chinese students get or renew visas, and helping chinese students prove to immigration officials that they had enough money to study in canada.
but instead, the bcsc says, zhang used the money to pay returns to other investors in canada and china and pay off a personal loan to a calgary realtor, as well as shopping, paying utilities and gambling at casinos.
the commission also said she used the money to pay a lawyer to dispute an immigration order that she leave canada. cbc news has contacted the bcsc, immigration, refugees and citizenship canada and the immigration and refugee board of canada for more details about this order and whether the case is ongoing.
exact place of residence unknown
the commission said zhang paid back some of the money, but failed to return about $1.7 million. in the decision, the bcsc executive director compared zhang’s scheme to a ponzi scheme, in which money from new investors is used to pay existing ones.
it’s now up to the bcsc panel to determine penalties against zhang, which could include fines and bans from market participation.
in an email to cbc news, a bcsc spokesperson said the securities watchdog doesn’t generally comment on cases while they’re still before the panel.
zhang could not be reached for comment.
zhang held a b.c. driver’s licence and listed mailing addresses in calgary, but her exact place of residence is not known to the bcsc.
while running the scheme, zhang said she had many occupations, including homemaker, business owner, caregiver and investor, according to the commission.
‘calculated and even predatory’
the bcsc said zhang met one investor through a mutual friend in 2014. the investor, referred to as “ld” in the document, worked as a cleaner at the vancouver international airport and as a translator.
zhang allegedly treated the investor to an expensive dinner, during which she told the investor she was in the business of lending money to chinese students who needed to show immigration authorities they had enough money to remain in canada.
ld told the commission they were initially hesitant, but zhang called them daily, pressuring them to give her money.
“there are additional factors … which convince us that zhang’s actions were calculated and even predatory,” the bcsc panel said in the decision. “one of these factors is the persistence zhang demonstrated in convincing the initially reluctant investors to advance both their initial investments and then to continue investing more.”
eventually, ld gave zhang $90,000 and, days later, zhang repaid $50,000, the bcsc said. after that, the investor started following zhang’s directions. they took out a line of credit and several loans, to make a total of 102 payments to zhang totalling more than $1.7 million.
the investor received about $760,000 in payments back from zhang, but at the time of publication, still has not recovered almost $1 million.
the commission says zhang also targeted a metro vancouver tailor and a businessperson in the hospital industry.
while the three investors spoke to bcsc investigators, zhang did not participate in the proceedings and has not disputed the evidence against her. one of the reasons she did not participate was her refusal to provide updated contact information and place of residence to the regulator.
zhang has been temporarily banned from participating in markets since april 2023.
the involved parties have until oct. 25 to submit information before the panel decides what sanctions to impose.

woman defrauds richmond, vancouver investors of $1.7m
a panel found meiyun zhang’s actions were ‘calculated and even predatory.’
sep 12, 2024
a woman was found by the bc securities commission (bcsc) to have defrauded investors in richmond and vancouver of about $1.7 million under the guise of helping chinese students and tourists.
meiyun zhang raised about $3.2 million from three investors in richmond and vancouver between 2014 and 2016, telling them their money would generate monthly returns of six to 10 per cent without risk.
the bcsc panel described how zhang “varied her ‘pitch’ to the investors in order to find a message which would work for each of them,” that they would earn returns by exchanging foreign currency for chinese students and tourists visiting canada, or by helping students immigrate to canada to study, or by providing loans to chinese students to obtain canadian visas.
instead, the panel found the funds were actually used for zhang’s personal purposes, including making retail purchases, gambling in casinos and paying utility bills.
although the three investors got some of their money back, they lost a combined $1.7 million.
one investor lost almost $1 million, another lost about $130,000 and the third, about $580,000.
one investor told the panel she had lost several properties securing loans for the investments with zhang.
the bcsc panel noted in its decision that the investor funds weren’t secure. furthermore, the panel stated “the returns the investors received did not come from the underlying business, but came from their own funds or those of other investors,” adding the “investment scheme had elements of a ponzi scheme as well as an affinity fraud.”
the panel stated it’s convinced “zhang’s actions were calculated and even predatory.” this was demonstrated by the persistence zhang displayed in convincing the initially reluctant victims to give her their initial investments and then to continue providing funds.
the panel concluded zhang, who had a b.c. driver’s licence and used calgary mailing addresses throughout the scheme, had “actual knowledge” that her actions were putting the invested funds at risk.
since april 2023, zhang has been temporarily banned from participating in the investment market because of the seriousness of the allegations against her and the delays in holding a hearing.
the hearing was conducted in writing after several unsuccessful efforts to conduct an in-person hearing, which zhang didn’t participate in.
the panel will next consider what sanctions to impose, which could include monetary sanctions and bans from market participation.

“精心策划，甚至掠夺成性”
加拿大卑詩證監會：華女詐騙投資者170萬加元
加拿大卑詩證監會（bcsc）揭露了一起詐騙案，一名華裔女子張美雲（meiyun zhang，音譯）以支持中國留學生和遊客的業務為幌子，詐騙了投資者約170萬加元。
據cbc報導，張美雲向投資者承諾，將他們的資金用於支持來加拿大的中國留學生和遊客，並承諾提供高達10%的月回報率，且無風險。然而，卑詩省證監會指出，張美雲在2014年至2016年間騙取了溫哥華和列治文的3名投資者資金，共計超過300萬元。
張美雲聲稱，這些資金將用於兌換人民幣、幫助中國學生獲得或續簽簽證，以及協助他們向移民官員證明有足夠資金支持在加拿大的學習。實際上，張美雲將這些資金用於支付加拿大和中國其他投資者的回報、償還卡爾加里一名房地產經紀人的貸款、購物、支付水電費及賭博。
此外，張美雲還用這些資金聘請律師，對要求她離開加拿大的移民部決定提出異議。
證監會表示，儘管張美雲已償還部分資金，但仍有約170萬元未歸還。證監會將張美雲的詐騙行為比作龐氏騙局，即用新投資者的資金支付舊投資者的回報。
張美雲持有卑詩省的駕駛執照，列出的郵寄地址位於卡爾加里，但證監會尚不清楚她的具體住址。文件顯示，張美雲在運營騙局期間，自稱為家庭主婦、企業主、護工及投資者等不同職業。
下一步，卑詩省證監會裁決小組將決定對張美雲施加何種處罰，其中可能包括罰款以及禁止她參與市場活動。

four reports of possible fake taxi
the guelph police service is investigating after four reports of males in a possibly fake taxi defrauding good samaritans.
approximately 8 p.m. friday a guelph male was entering a woodlawn road west business when he was approached by a child. the child said he was trying to pay for a taxi but the cabbie wouldn’t accept cash, and asked the male to pay his fare by debit and the child would give him cash.
the witness complied and was handed back a receipt and his debit card, but later realized the card was not his. he contacted his bank and discovered his card had been used to withdraw $3,000.
approximately 10:15 p.m. saturday a guelph woman was in her car at a woodlawn road west business when she was approached by a child and told the same story. she paid the fare but a short time later realized she had been given someone else’s card and was able to lock her bank accounts before sustaining any loss.
on sunday, police were contacted by a second guelph woman who reported she was waiting outside a business near edinburgh road south and stone road west saturday evening when she was approached by a similar vehicle. after paying the supposed fare, the victim realized $1,500 had been withdrawn from her account.
also sunday, a third woman reported a similar interaction with the males approximately 9:30 p.m. saturday in the parking lot of a stone road west business. she later discovered the males had kept her card and withdrawn almost $1,000 from her account.
in all cases the driver was described as a brown-skinned male in his 20s with a thin build, possibly with a beard and wearing a mask. the child was possibly white, 11-14 years with dark hair and wearing a blue shirt, grey and white shorts and black and red shoes. the car was described as a white audi with an orange and white taxi sign on the roof.
anyone with information is asked to call the guelph police service at 519-824-1212, leave an anonymous message for crime stoppers at 1-800-222-tips (8477) or leave an anonymous tip online at www.csgw.tips.

scott tracey is the spokesperson for the guelph police service and says a similar scam involving adults has been reported in the city before, but this is the first time they’ve had reports of a child being involved.
he said having a child approach people may have meant people let their guard down about this kind of scam.
“anecdotally speaking, we can assume that if someone is approached by a small child saying that they’re having some kind of difficulty and asking for an adults help, that people are maybe more likely to feel sorry for the child and to do what they’re being asked rather than, if they were approached by, say, two adult men saying they’re having this dispute with the taxi driver,” tracey told cbc news.

圭尔夫警察局已接到四起关于多名男子乘坐疑似假出租车诈骗善心人士的报告，目前警方正在展开调查。
周五晚上 8 点左右，一名圭尔夫男子正要进入伍德朗路西的一家商店，这时一名儿童走近了他。这名儿童说他想付出租车费，但出租车司机不接受现金，于是要求这名男子用借记卡支付车费，然后孩子会给他现金。
男子照做了，收据和借记卡也还给了他，但后来他意识到这张卡不是他的，他联系了银行，发现他的卡已经被人用提取了 3,000 美元。
周六晚上 10:15 左右，一名圭尔夫女子在 woodlawn road west 的一家商店开车时，一名儿童向她走来，并讲述了同样的故事。她付了车费，但不久后才意识到她拿到了别人的卡，于是在遭受任何损失之前锁定了她的银行账户。
周日，另一名圭尔夫女子报警称，周六晚上她在爱丁堡路南和石路西附近的一家商店外等候时，一辆类似的车辆向她驶来。在支付了车费后，受害者发现她的账户中被盗取了 1,500 美元。
同样在周日，第三名女性报告称，周六晚上 9:30 左右，她在 stone road west 一家企业的停车场遇到了类似的男子。她后来发现，男子拿走了她的卡，并从她的账户中取走了近 1,000 美元。
在所有情况下，司机都被描述为一名 20 多岁、身材瘦削的棕色皮肤男性，可能留着胡子，戴着面具。孩子可能是白人，11-14 岁，黑发，身穿蓝色衬衫、灰白短裤和黑红鞋。汽车被描述为一辆白色奥迪，车顶上有橙色和白色的出租车标志。

斯科特·特雷西 (scott tracey) 是圭尔夫警察局的发言人，他表示该市以前也曾报告过涉及成年人的类似诈骗案，但这是他们第一次接到有关儿童参与的报告。
他说，让孩子接近人们可能意味着人们对这种骗局放松了警惕。
tracey 告诉 cbc 新闻：“我们可以假设，如果某人被一个小孩接近并说他们遇到了某种困难并要求成年人帮助，人们更有可能对孩子感到同情并按照他们的要求去做，而不是被两个成年男子接近并说他们与出租车司机发生了争执。”

between august 11 and september 4, 2024, 16 vehicles are believed to have been stolen through reprogramming tactics by organized vehicle theft groups. the vehicles targeted were primarily toyota tundra pickup trucks, toyota grand highlanders, and lexus suvs. the vehicles were stolen from residential driveways during the night.
police encourage individuals to consider taking the following measures to help prevent these thefts:
block the access to the onboard diagnostic port to prevent thieves from reprogramming the vehicle’s key fob or purchase an aftermarket immobilizer.
use a steering wheel locking device to deter theft.
when not in use, place the vehicle key fob inside a radio frequency shielding bag/pouch to block cell signals.
consider equipping your vehicle with an aftermarket global positioning system (gps) tracker, as organized groups can easily defeat onboard manufacturing tracking. the tracker may assist police in locating the vehicle and/or suspects.
consider installing a wired camera system and audible alarm, as subjects are known to carry devices with the ability to jam wireless cameras.
ensure all keys are accounted for and never left in the vehicle or unattended.
wrps has seen a drastic increase in reprogramming auto thefts this year in comparison to 2023. so far this year, the region has experienced 147 stolen vehicles from january to september. in 2023, the region had 88 reprogrammed thefts in the same timeframe.
if you observe suspicious people in your neighbourhood looking into vehicles, we encourage you to call police immediately.
police believe that members of the community, specifically youths and young adults, are being targeted for recruitment by organized crime groups to assist in these thefts. these vulnerable members of the community are often placed into dangerous situations and face the most immediate risk of arrest or injury.
anyone with information is asked to call police at 519-570-9777 or crime stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. anonymous tips can also be submitted at www.waterloocrimestoppers.com.
a crime in progress can be reported by calling 9-1-1.
waterloo regional police service is committed to reducing vehicle theft as a recipient of funding provided by the ontario government preventing auto theft grant.

wrps 继续调查剑桥多起有组织的车辆盗窃案
安大略省滑铁卢地区 ——滑铁卢地区警察局入室盗窃和车辆盗窃 (bevt) 小组成员继续调查剑桥多起车辆盗窃案。
2024 年 8 月 11 日至 9 月 4 日期间，有组织的汽车盗窃团伙通过重新编程手段窃取了 16 辆汽车。目标车辆主要是丰田 tundra 皮卡、丰田 grand highlanders 和雷克萨斯 suv。这些车辆是在夜间从住宅车道上被盗的。
警方鼓励个人考虑采取以下措施，以帮助防止此类盗窃：
阻止对车载诊断端口的访问，以防止窃贼重新编程车辆的遥控钥匙或购买售后防盗器。
使用方向盘锁定装置来阻止盗窃。
不使用时，请将车辆钥匙扣放入射频屏蔽袋/袋内，以阻挡手机信号。
考虑为您的车辆配备售后全球定位系统 (gps) 追踪器，因为有组织的团体可以轻松绕过车载制造追踪。追踪器可能有助于警方找到车辆和/或嫌疑人。
考虑安装有线摄像系统和声音警报，因为众所周知，目标携带的设备能够干扰无线摄像头。
确保所有钥匙都妥善保管，并且不会留在车内或无人看管。
与 2023 年相比，wrps 今年的重新编程汽车盗窃案大幅增加。今年到目前为止，该地区从 1 月到 9 月共发生 147 起汽车被盗案。2023 年，该地区在同一时间段内发生了 88 起重新编程盗窃案。
如果您发现附近有可疑人员正在查看车辆，我们建议您立即报警。
警方认为，社区成员，尤其是青少年和年轻人，是犯罪团伙招募的目标，以协助实施盗窃。这些弱势群体往往处于危险境地，面临被捕或受伤的最直接风险。
任何知情人士请拨打警方电话 519-570-9777 或犯罪热线 1-800-222-8477。
