NewsJune 6, 2012 - Con artists have been using phony certified cheques to rip off equipment suppliers in the GTA and central/southern Ontario. The Canadian Rental Association reports at least three machines have been stolen this way, and 22 bogus cheques passed.
One of the victims, Kooy Brothers, was able to capture images of the thieves that appear below. The CRA reports Hitch City in Mississaga, Ont., was hit for a Hustler worth $5800. The CRA encourages rental operators to print these images and post them in their shops.
