BANK INSPECTOR FRAUDS
During the past two, years,
thousands of dollars have 'been
taken from trusting . and un-
suspecting elderly P e r s o„n s
throughout Ontario by a scheme
,commonly referred to as "Bank
Inspector Frauds."
Ontario Provincial Police

some urgency to this message.

of an elderly widow.
Th.' male caller, • in a very
husinetis like and authoritative
nrannor, will identify himself as
either a "bank. ;'bil'icial" or a
member , of the police depart-
ment, presently investigating a
dishonest bank employee sus-
pected. of tampering. with the
-customer's account.
The caller will then, in a very
persuasive lone, obtain from the
vi'ctini information , concerning
the amount of money on deposit
in her -act i'rt: ' • .-,-..
Ile will -then request that she
go .to the bank and withdraw a
substantial sum of 'money from
her :i: count: As hart- o
scheme, the victim is advised
that in making this withdrawal,
she. will assist in trapping the
dishonest employee; she will
also be advised not to tell any-
one, and to wear gloves in order
that she will not leave her fing-
erprints on the money.
The caller will likely tell the
Branch, under the direction,
Chief Inspector J. L. Erskine,
relpor`s that an increase of ac-
tivity can be expected in "Bank
Inspector Frauds" with the ap-
proach, of the summer• months.
