Lake Cowichan RCMP File #2025-1417

The fraud involved the sale of fake wrist bands to unsuspecting victims at the Nickelback concert. Investigators believe multiple patrons were defrauded after purchasing entry wristbands from a male which were later discovered to be fake. 

With the assistance of event security, a suspect male was identified, taken into custody and released with a future court date. While some fraud victims have come forward, the Lake Cowichan RCMP believe there are additional victims who have not been yet identified. 

Officers would like to speak to anyone who may have information related to this investigation, and are asking the public to come forward by calling the Lake Cowichan RCMP at 250-749-6668
