Police warn of new fraud schemes
The Niagara Regional Police are investigating two separate fraud cases.
The first fraud related issue involves people receiving unsolicited phone calls
during which the person on the line inquires about problems with the home
owner's computer or suggests that their computer may be infected with several
viruses. The caller then directs the home owner or resident to a website
