More than 300 criminal charges have been laid after police in the GTA dismantled an alleged identity theft ring. Officers arrested five people, after raids in Milton, Mississauga, Brampton and Toronto resulted in the discovery of two high-tech labs, being used to make counterfeit driver’s licences and credit cards. So far, police have identified 100 victims in the GTA, many of whom didn’t know that their information had been stolen. Halton Police made the arrests, with the help of Durham Police, the OPP and the US secret service.
