Public Assistance Sought in Identifying Additional Fraud Victims
Region of Peel – Investigators from the 21 Division Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB) are seeking the public’s help in identifying additional victims after receiving reports of fraudulent activity in the City of Brampton.
In July 2024, police received reports regarding a suspected fraudulent contracting business operating under the name A&E Contractors, associated with Timothy Glen Carter.
Following a year-long investigation, it was determined that the company had no legitimate business presence, physical address, or corporate records. The known financial loss to date exceeds $800,000. As a result, Carter is currently wanted on a warrant for Fraud Over $5,000.
Investigators believe there may be additional victims and are urging anyone who may have had dealings with Carter or A&E Contractors to contact 21 Division CIB at 905-453-2121, ext. 2133. Information may also be left anonymously by calling Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or visiting www.peelcrimestoppers.ca.
