I want to give a HUGE recognition to the OPP and in particular to Constible Lehaux (sp?).
We rent a secondary building on our property as a vacation rental and I received a call this morning from the company which reviews credit card charges and detects fraud. They advised me that the tenants currently residing in our place used a card that was considered high risk . It seems they had used at least six credit cards, all with different names, using the same address in the last couple of weeks. Of course the credit card charge was reversed and the fraud risk analyst advised that I call the police. I did as advised however, the residents were checking out today and left via a cab before the OPP could get to our house. In speaking with Constable Lehaux, I explained that they left in a cab and she immediately said she had a way to possibly track them down. About an hour later she had another Constable come to my home to tell me they had the three men detained. They were on the 401 near Chatham. I know I will likely never see the money for the two nights they stayed at our rental, nor recoup the money from damages they caused but if these guys are charged and locked up, it would definitely be worth my losses. So THANK YOU to the Belle River and Chatham OPP who worked so quickly to get these guys and showed concern and care by keeping me in the loop, we are so fortunate to have you!
