(CALEDON, ON) – Members from the Caledon Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have laid charges against an individual following an investigation into a fraud incident.

On October 21, 2025, officers from the Caledon OPP received a fraud report from a Caledon-based corporation. The complainant reported that they received a fraudulent phishing email, which resulted in the loss of nearly $300,000.

As a result, Jeyarajah VALLIPURAM, 67, of Montreal, Quebec, was charged with:

Fraud over $5000 – two counts
Possession of property obtained by crime – two counts
Laundering proceeds of crime
The accused is scheduled to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Orangeville on May 14, 2026, to answer to the charges.
