  • Delta woman charged with fraud

Police in Delta say a 31-year-old woman is facing dozens of fraud and identity theft charges related to an investigation that began in November 2020. 

Delta Police say Tarndeep Uppal of North Delta faces 40 charges in total after investigators allege she obtained identification and credit card information for personal gain.

Police say Uppal faces one count of identity or credit card theft, 14 counts of fraud under five-thousand dollars, and 25 counts of possessing identity information with intent to commit fraud. 

Officers say the woman has been released from custody on the condition she doesn't possess any credit cards or I-D that are in any name but hers.
