Fraud/Elder Abuse

Our Fraud Unit investigates every fraud complaint that is taken in by the police service and works closely with banks, credit card companies and other financial institutions.  The Fraud Unit investigates financial crimes but also assists in educating the public on how to avoid becoming a victim of fraud.

This unit also doubles as the Service’s Elder Abuse Coordinator.  As the Elder Abuse Coordinator, this officer investigates financial crimes against seniors, nursing home/senior care related complaints and potential crimes related to Powers of Attorney.  In addition to these investigations, the unit works from a preventative perspective by providing education and presentations to various senior’s communities.
