Great; Kathryn, when you have the opportunity are you (or someone else with
knowledge of the events) able to report the fraud to the Canada Anti-Fraud
Centre? You can file the report online (Report a scam (rcmp-grc.gc.ca)
<https://report.con.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/>) or call the Canadian Anti-Fraud
Centre at 1-888-495-8501 from Monday to Friday between 9 am and 4:45 pm
ET.
Perhaps the best option is to call in the report.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.
