Between June and August 2022, police said various victims in Peel Region and across the GTA allegedly retained the services of 20-year-old Tom Delaney, who allegedly falsely identified himself as belonging to a legitimate road repair company.
Delaney and his associates allegedly created a sense of urgency and asked victims to pay up front for his services, police said.
“In some cases, he would start but not finish the job. In others, the project would not start at all and communication with victims would stop,” Peel police said in a news release.
Police say Delaney is currently wanted on a charge of Defraud the Public.
Investigators believe there may be more victims who have yet to come forward.
“Peel Regional Police urges all members of the public to consider not prepaying for products or services when dealing with unknown or unverified individuals. Review reports and create a contract and payment schedule for services rendered,” police wrote.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 905-453-2121, extension 3335 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
