The Guelph Police Service is again warning the public to be cautious when dealing with individuals online after a Guelph resident lost more than $6,000 in a cryptocurrency scam.
The victim called police Monday evening and advised in February they began communicating with two individuals online. This led to the victim providing nearly $6,200 which they thought was to be invested in cryptocurrency.
When they attempted to withdraw funds a week ago the victim was asked to pay a $5,000 processing fee. They instead called police.
