⚠️ SCAM ALERT⚠️ We are warning Calgarians of a financial scam that was recently reported involving individuals who claimed to be police officers over the phone. Earlier this month, a man attended a district office to report suspicious phone calls he received where the person on the other end was trying to extort money from him. 📍 In late-Feb. 2024, the victim answered the phone & the caller identified themselves as being from the CPS & was calling to let the victim know they had arrested someone for using the victim’s bank card at a local shopping centre. The caller then told the victim the next step in the investigation was to contact Detective Mark Baldwin, with the CPS fraud unit, who is a fictitious officer. The victim then contacted the fictitious officer over the phone & was told his tax-free savings account was vulnerable & he needed to wire transfer $135,000 to a ghost account to protect his money. The victim was immediately suspicious & contacted his bank to report the incident & fortunately did not lose any money. 👉 The CPS will never call & ask citizens to provide financial information or transfer money. ℹ Anyone who has suffered a financial loss or who has had their personal information compromised because of fraud can report it: ☎️ CPS: 403-266-1234 🛑 @stopcrimeyyc 🌐 newsroom.calgary.ca/police-w…
