They allege a paralegal purported to be a lawyer and allegedly sold automotive insurance at a value that was more favourable than what was otherwise available.

Police say the man was neither licensed to sell automotive insurance, nor was the insurance valid.

Fifty-six-year-old Min Hoi “Kenny” Yau has been charged with fraud, uttering a forged document and possession of proceeds of crime.

Police believe there may be more victims.
