Canadian currency can be seen in this file photo. (David Prisciak/CTV News) A buy-and-sell meetup in Waterloo took a violent turn this weekend, after a seller was assaulted and robbed during what was supposed to be a routine transaction. Waterloo Regional Police were called to the area of Spruce Street and Columbia Street around 5:30 p.m. on Saturday. According to police, the victim had arranged to meet two people to sell an item listed online. But when the exchange took place, they realized the money handed over was counterfeit. Police said when the seller confronted the suspects, they were physically assaulted. The suspects then took the item and fled in a vehicle. The victim sustained non-life-threatening injuries. As the investigation continues, police are reminding residents about the Buy and Sell Exchange Zones set up across the region — well-lit, monitored areas at police facilities where online transactions can happen more safely. Anyone with information or surveillance footage of the incident is asked to contact police at 519-570-9777 ext. 6399. For more information on safe Exchange Zones, visit:
