Community News: Guelph man loses nearly $100,000 in cryptocurrency scam

Guelph police are investigating after an online cryptocurrency scam resulted in a man losing nearly $100,000.

Police said the man was contacted by an unknown individual after posting in an online forum in September that he was looking for assistance learning how to invest in cryptocurrency.

By the end of October he had reportedly transferred approximately US$50,000 and was told the investment was now worth more than $210,000.

After being asked to make two separate transfers of $21,000 to pay a tax on the profit, investigators said he became suspicious and contacted police.

Police encourage residents to be vigilant when investing in cryptocurrency — to perform extensive research before transferring any funds and not accept investment advice from someone you haven’t met.

Magic Johnson not looking forward to HB0 series on his Showtime Lakers

Despite the ravages of time, there still remains a large public appetite to revisit the Lakers dynasty of the 1980s led by Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

The Magic Man was queried about HBO’s upcoming Adam McKay-produced series on the 1980s Showtime Lakers, “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty.”

John C. Reilly will play Dr. Jerry Buss, the late legendary owner of the Lakers, and Johnson will be featured prominently, which does not please the icon.

Johnson looked as if the question had a bad odor to it.

“I’m not looking forward to it. I’m going to leave it at that,” Johnson said forcefully to TMZ.

One of the reasons Johnson may not be pleased is that he is already made it publicly known that he plans to produce his own documentary on his time with the Lakers. Moreover, current owner Jeannie Buss has also said she is planning a similar TV project on the Lakers.

So this may be a case of flooding the market on this one topic. This might be why Johnson gestured in the negative when asked if he will watch the HBO series.

“No,” he simply said.

There is also the concern that the HBO doc will spend a lot of time on Johnson’s reputation as a relentless partyer, something that Johnson has tried to downplay in recent years.

Delta says flight to Shanghai turned back because of new Covid rules The incident comes as China clamps down on Covid travel restrictions ahead of the Winter Olympics in Beijing.

Delta Air Lines said Monday that new pandemic-related cleaning requirements at a Shanghai airport were behind the turning back of a recent flight from Seattle in midair, a move that had prompted a protest from the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco.

An emailed statement said the new mandates at Shanghai Pudong International Airport “require significantly extended ground time and are not operationally viable for Delta.”

It wasn’t clear what the rules are and what prompted the change, but it comes as China tightens its already strict Covid-19 travel restrictions in the face of a growing outbreak in the city of Xi’an and ahead of the Winter Olympics in Beijing in six weeks.

Xi’an, which is about 600 miles southwest of Beijing, reported more than 300 new cases over the weekend, a sharp rise from previous days. The city of 13 million people has been locked down, with only one person per household allowed out every two days to shop for necessities.

The Delta flight that turned back to Seattle last week left passengers with expired Covid-19 test results and U.S. visas, according to Chinese media reports.

"Haiti’s GANG Warfare"

In a country dominated by gangs, photographer Rodrigo Abd’s images show both armed gangsters and the residents they terrorise

The two images are as stark as what they represent: the cause and effect of Haiti’s increasing woes. In one, a masked and armed gangster keeps lookout on a Port-au-Prince rooftop, just a few blocks from the presidential palace. In the other, a family recently displaced by gang violence takes shelter in a school that now houses dozens of families, a stone’s throw from their homes.

“Port-au-Prince is almost entirely controlled by gangs, and we wanted to show the efforts of people that are running businesses to survive,” says Rodrigo Abd, 45, an Argentinian staff photographer with the Associated Press who took the images. “But I was also trying to show another side to Haiti, to avoid the stereotypes that we always repeat, to show the violent without the violence, or the poor without the poverty.”

Haiti is beset by overlapping crises. The country’s president, Jovenel Moïse, was assassinated in early July in circumstances that remain mysterious. A 7.2 magnitude earthquake wrecked the country’s rural south in August. In September, thousands of Haitian migrants that had been living across South America were deported from Texas after years away from their homeland.

Meanwhile, in the political vacuum, local rights groups estimate that as many as 165 gangs continue to terrorise residents, throwing up roadblocks and kidnapping rich and poor alike for ransom. Aid deliveries to the quake-struck south are often turned back by militiamen, who in October kidnapped a group of 17 US and Canadian missionary workers and their families. Over 600 people have been kidnapped in Haiti this year, over triple last year’s total. Fuel shortages have added to the woes, especially in a country without a reliable electrical grid.

“You can feel an aggressive landscape, that it is a place that could explode very easily and at any time, because the situation is so bad,” says Abd, who has photographed war zones around the world.

Abd has worked several times in Haiti, travelling to the Caribbean country first in 2004, just before the coup that removed then-president Jean-Bertrand Aristide from office in another wave of instability.
