Edmonton Police Fight Scams with Ethical Hackers
Description
Edmonton police join forces with ethical hackers and U.S. law enforcement to combat scams, preventing over $42 million from being lost. This initiative, launched in July 2025, targets sophisticated criminals exploiting cryptocurrency and digital fraud. Ethical hackers intercept victim data, sharing it with partners like the U.S. Secret Service and Collin County Sheriffs Office. Since July, theyve reached out to over 300 victims and collaborated with 50+ agencies across Canada, U.S., and U.K. to disrupt fund transfers and freeze accounts, warning potential victims and launching investigations.
