The RCMP is warning the public about a “elaborate” bank scam that led to a B.C. woman losing $60,000 after she gave her bank cards to an individual she believed to be a courier from her bank.

The 68-year-old woman from Mission, B.C., reported to police she had lost as much as $60,000 after being targeted in the scam, RCMP said in a June 23 news release.
