Dartmouth Man Arrested in Fraud Scheme Following Reverse Sting Operation
DARTMOUTH, MA – A man accused of defrauding a local resident has been arrested during a reverse sting operation conducted by law enforcement. The suspect, identified as 37-year-old Tabor Cormier, allegedly conned a Dartmouth woman out of $35,000 through a fraudulent sale of vehicles online.
The operation unfolded when investigators, posing as the victim, arranged a meeting with Cormier, leading to his arrest at a designated location. Authorities revealed that the scheme involved Cormier claiming to sell high-end vehicles, collecting payments upfront but failing to deliver the cars.
Following his arrest, Cormier was charged with multiple counts of fraud and larceny. Fall River Police emphasized the importance of vigilance in online transactions, urging residents to conduct thorough checks before sending money or making purchases. The case has sparked conversations about online scams, reminding the community to remain cautious and informed.
Cormier is currently held without bail, and his arraignment is set for later this week. The investigation continues as authorities seek to determine if there are additional victims linked to Cormier’s fraudulent activities.
