Computer fraud artists still active Const. Jeff MacLeod of the Killaloe detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police is investigating another computer fraud that involved someone posing as an employee of Microsoft. The victim of this crime sub-
sequently gave a credit card number and was advised there would be a cost of $308 applied to their card. The victim in these circumstances was having legitimate computer issues and was tricked
into believing the phone call was someone from Microsoft. Police are wanting to warn the public to be very cautious when dealing with anyone on the telephone and releasing their credit card numbers.
