Geraldton woman facing new fraud charges after investigation into $20,000 scam

A Geraldton woman is facing new and additional fraud charges after initial investigation found she defrauded a local company for $20,000.

According to an Ontario Provincial Police media release, a 37-year-old Geraldton woman has been charged with making forged documents, using forged documents, and fraud over $5,000.

These new charges stem from an investigation where Greenstone OPP found that she defrauded Pagwachuan Equipment Sales of nearly $20,000. The woman is already facing fraud charges from an investigation in July that found she defrauded Silver Linings Cabinetry of nearly $6,000.

The woman made her first court appearance on Friday, Nov. 17 in an Ontario Court of Justice. None of the allegations have been proven in court.
