The St. Thomas Police Service is investigating a bank fraud that saw the victims lose $15,000.
On Thursday, two people from St. Thomas were contacted by a man, who said he was a Scotiabank employee.
The STPS said the man convinced the victims that he needed their bank cards, sending a courier to pick them up.
Later in the evening, a man picked up the cards, which were then allegedly used to make $15,000 in transactions.
