Canadian Man Arrested in Multi-State Elderly Fraud Scheme
Jia Hua Liu, a 36-year-old Canadian citizen, was arrested by Charlestown, Indiana police for orchestrating a multi-state fraud scheme targeting elderly residents across Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, New Mexico, Ohio, and Tennessee. Liu tricked an elderly Charlestown man into withdrawing $27,000 from his retirement account and handing it over, and was linked to additional fraud cases totaling over $309,000, with potential losses prevented by family intervention amounting to $70,000. Police found a large amount of cash in Liu's luggage and vehicle when they arrested him at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport as he was attempting to flee the country. Liu faces multiple felony charges including theft, fraud, conspiracy, money laundering, and criminal organization activity. Authorities suspect Liu obtained over $400,000 through his alleged scams and continue to investigate, urging anyone targeted by similar schemes to contact the Charlestown Police Department. The arrest was hailed as a result of extensive detective work and inter-agency cooperation dedicated to protecting elderly community members.
