Kelowna senior scammed out of thousands of dollars
Description
March 6, 2024
RCMP in the Okanagan is reminding the public to be vigilant after an elderly Kelowna woman was scammed out of thousands of dollars. It involved the so-called grandparent scam and as Klaudia Van Emmerik reports, what's unsual in this case is that scammer came to collect the money in person.
