Sandra Elsley Fraud Niagara Falls Ontario

I am writing this as a warning to all businesses in the Niagara Region: beware of Sandra Elsley! She will rip you off without a second thought.

Sandra Elsley was a customer of my business for numerous months. We stopped taking cheques from her after they kept coming back NSF. She then used her Royal Bank credit card. I was contacted by the bank's fraud department to verify her charges. I was advised that she was claiming that she did not use our services and demanded the charges be reversed. After my confirmation that it was, indeed, Sandra Elsley, I was again contacted by the bank. I was told that she now claimed that didn't make the charges: it must have been her sister. Sandra then said if she did make those charges, she didn't remember.

I have since learned that this is a pattern that Sandra Elsley uses with a number of local businesses in Niagara Falls Chamber of Commerce. In fact, she was sued by the Royal Bank for fraud and lost.

I have worked hard building my company. I am frustrated and angry that a woman in her 60s who plays up the vulnerable old lady image, claiming she is a family therapist, is walking around out there ripping people off. Please beware of this woman. She is dangerous.
