Police say the suspects used fraudulent certified cheques to buy merchandise on the Kijiji website. Investigators say the suspects were based in Ajax, and used a truck registered to a fictitious company, counterfeit identification and pay-as-you-go cellphones in order to prevent being identified. Two Sea-Doos, a trailer and a commercial generator were recovered.
