Ontario Provincial Police have charged four people in an investigation into an alleged investment scam that cost a Puslinch Township resident approximately $500,000.
Wellington County OPP began investigating in October 2025. Police say the investigation also uncovered evidence of suspected money laundering. They have not released details about how the investment was presented to the victim.
On March 27, officers searched a Brampton home and seized cash, high-end clothing and purses, electronic devices and personal documents. A 29-year-old Brampton resident was charged with fraud over $5,000, possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000 and laundering the proceeds of crime.
Police arrested a 34-year-old London resident in Mississauga on April 16. That person was charged with possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000 and laundering the proceeds of crime.
A 28-year-old Vaughan resident was arrested on September 4 and charged with fraud over $5,000, possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000 and laundering the proceeds of crime.
The fourth arrest followed a September 10 search of a London home, where police seized electronic devices and documents valued at an estimated $8,000. A 31-year-old London resident was charged with laundering the proceeds of crime and possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000.
