Door-to-Door Fraud Network Dismantled in Hawkesbury: The Town of Hawkesbury By-law Officers and the OPP take action


The Town of Hawkesbury by-law officers and the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) detachment recently collaborated to dismantle a door-to-door fraud network primarily targeting the elderly. This criminal network lured Hawkesbury victims into undertaking driveway paving services using high-pressure sales tactics. This was a scam that would have led to financial losses amounting to thousands of dollars for Hawkesbury residents.
