ENFIELD: Over the past week, East Hants RCMP officers responded to 109 calls for service.
Here are a couple of the spotlighted calls as provided by Community Policing Officer Const. Preston Burns.
BITCOIN SCAM
On November 21, East Hants RCMP were advised of a scam whereas an Elmsdale resident was fooled into depositing $4,000 into a Bitcoin ATM in Lower Sackville.
They did that after being told that her accounts had been compromised by an unknown male over the phone.
The investigation continues.
East Hants RCMP wants to remind the public that these types of scams are on the rise and should contact the police before sending any funds to anyone they don’t’ know.
PEDESTRIAN HIT IN PARKING LOT

The incident took place in the parking lot of the Elmsdale Superstore.
