Man charged after non-profit defrauded $700K

A 36-year-old man from Richmond Hill is accused of defrauding a non-profit organization he worked for of more than $700,000 over roughly a year.

Police allege that between November 2022 and December of last year, the man made fake vendor invoices and bills payable to bank accounts he had access to and used the organization's money to pay them.

They say he was arrested earlier this week and charged with several offences, including two counts of fraud over $5,000 and forgery.

He's due in court to face the charges in July.
