In a statement released on its website, the Peel Regional Police said between June 2021 and July 2023, two victims believed they were in a genuine romantic relationship with the suspect, whom they met through an online dating platform, adding that the suspect fraudulently claimed to own an ‘Oil Rig’ in the Middle East and urgently needed money, promising repayment, and an eventual meeting.
“The victims only communicated with him electronically and never met in person.” the statement partly read.
After the victims confronted the suspect, he reportedly cut off all communication, and they were never reimbursed for the financial loss which totaled $610,382.
The police revealed that on April 28, Nwabueze was charged with one count each of uttering forged documents, laundering proceeds of crime, participating in activities of criminal organization, and instructing commission of offence for criminal organisation, as well as two counts each of fraud over $5,000 and possession of property obtained by crime.
He was released afterwards on an undertaking and will appear later before the Ontario Court.
