Maidstone RCMP are trying to track down other potential victims of identity theft after checking out a possible stolen camper and vehicle at the Maidstone  campground. That was back on September 20 and their investigation determined the camper was purchased fraudulently, with a fraudulent identity of someone in Ontario used in the purchase process.

Investigators also discovered the vehicle was purchased fraudulently. During a subsequent search of the camper, RCMP say officers located multiple counterfeit driver’s licenses from British Columbia, Ontario, Alberta and Saskatchewan. Hundreds of documents containing the counterfeit data and identification, including social insurance numbers, of potential victims from across Canada were located.
