(WEST NIPISSING, ON) – The Nipissing West Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have arrested a suspect in connection with a fraud case involving the double presentment of cheques, where the same cheque was deposited twice.
In November 2023, the OPP launched an investigation after a business reported several instances of cheques being deposited twice. Through a production order and further investigation, officers determined that 18 cheques had been fraudulently processed a second time, resulting in an estimated loss of approximately $12,000.
As a result of the investigation, on October 2, 2024, Stephane DESCOTEAUX, 32-years-of-age from West Nipissing was arrested and charged with the following:
Fraud over $5000
Fraud under $5000 (18 counts)
Obtain credit by false pretenses or fraud (18 counts)
The accused was released from custody and is scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in North Bay on November 7, 2024.
Intentionally depositing a cheque more than once is considered fraud under the Canadian Criminal Code. Fraud is a serious criminal offence, punishable by imprisonment.
