Hamilton senior victim of romance scam: Cops

A Hamilton senior is out of pocket after an alleged repeat offender scammed him out of $20,000.  

The victim allegedly fell prey to a 58-year-old woman from Niagara Falls with an alleged history of several romance scams. The accused was already out on two separate forms of judicial release in connection with similar offences in the Kitchener and Hamilton areas.  

According to police, the third alleged attempt began when a 75-year-old man met and developed a relationship with the accused in March 2025.

In the months that ensued, the woman allegedly persuaded the man to give her thousands of dollars when she asked for money to cover funeral expenses for her parents. She assured the victim that the money would be repaid. The cops alleged that the funds were obtained through deception. 

On July 22, Hamilton Police arrested Victoria Medalla and charged her with fraud over $5,000.  

Investigators believe there may be additional victims.

Anyone with information related to this investigation or anyone who believes they were a victim is asked to contact the crimes against seniors unit at 905-540-5351. Tips can also be submitted anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
