Police in Toronto have issued a warning about a snow plow scam.

 

The first snowfall of the season has begun in Toronto. In this case, the police are warning about fraud gangs. According to police, gangs are extorting money from victims by promising to clear piled snow. According to police, fraudsters typically advertise their businesses on social media and ask clients to pay in advance to prevent suspicion.

 There are currently no such businesses, according to police, but officers are skeptical of advertisements advertising snow removal. The police also warned that if money is requested before snow removal, it is a scam. Inform the police if any such fraud is suspected.
