Three Hills RCMP searching for B.C. woman in meat purchasing scam

Three Hills RCMP have charged a B.C. woman involved in a meat purchasing scam.

Penticton, B.C.’s Krysta-Lyn Williams, 36, has been charged with fraud over $5,000 and a warrant for her arrest has been issued following an investigation that began in December 2023.

The fraud investigation unveiled that 16 victims sent $60,000 through e-transfer for meat products that were not delivered as promised.

Police originally began investigating after one of the victims arranged a large meat order with DBL Meats, which was reported to be based out of Kelowna, B.C. and claimed to provide fresh farm products to Canadians.
