ONTARIO’S Peel Regional Police investigators from the Fraud Bureau have arrested and charged a Brampton man in connection with a fraud that primarily targeted members of the South Asian community — specifically those with temporary immigration status.

The investigation, launched in the summer of 2025, alleges that individuals with temporary immigration status were recruited by the accused to commit fraud against financial institutions and automotive dealerships in the Region of Peel.

Investigators believe that the accused intended to use others to obtain credit products, including high-value auto loans, with no intent to repay. The funds and vehicles obtained were allegedly intended for unauthorized use, resale, or export.

On March 9, 2026, 21-year-old Udayveer Dhillon was arrested and charged with attempt to commit a criminal offence.

As March marks Fraud Prevention Month, Peel Regional Police is reminding the public to stay informed about common scams, trust their instincts, walk away from anything that feels wrong, and report fraudulent activity to local police and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre to help protect themselves and their communities.
