There are also further alleged fraudulent acts by DOUSE on members of the public while he was working as a financial advisor.
Investigating officer Detective Constable Rogan of the Orillia Crime Unit said, It is essential to confirm that your investment funds are being directed into the products you intended. This means regularly reviewing your investment statements-whether by mail or through your secure online investment portal-and by keeping track of all transactions.
