VANCOUVER - Police in Delta say a newcomer to Canada was scammed out of $6,000 by someone pretending to be a police officer investigating her for money laundering. In a release issued Thursday, Delta police say the woman had saved up the money by working in a fast food restaurant in the city for six months. “Unfortunately, the woman was convinced she was talking to a police officer, and was instructed to purchase $6,000 worth of bitcoin, which she did through a machine in Surrey,” sa
