VANCOUVER - A 32-year old Lower Mainland woman will spend the
next three years in jail after pleading guilty to seven fraud-related
charges.
Baljit Uppal's offences date back to 1998.
Most recently she was caught by the vpd after de-frauding a Vancouver
car dealership of 35-thousand dollars after she got a job there under a
false name.
Between April of 2005 and May of 2006, Uppal also
de-frauded T-D Canada Trust of more than 42-thousand dollars and Coast
Capital Savings of 11-thousand by targeting Indo-Canadian females of
similar age and apperance to her at their workplaces and then waiting
for an opportunity to steal their wallets so she could open bank
accounts or obtain credit using their identities.
