The RCMP in BC have said that are noticing a trend of people being scammed by fraudsters that they have met on Social Media or on dating sites.
In this year’s first 8 months alone, people are stating that BC’s residents reportedly lost 3.5 million dollars due to crypto investment scams, 3 times what was lost last year.
The Police also said that about five per cent of the victims of these frauds actually report these crimes.
One suggestion that the police have pointed out is never send money to a person that you met online.
