Langley police are hunting for a man who impersonated a Saskatchewan resident to file a false income tax return and pocket the refund. On Feb. 20, the suspect walked into a Langley tax return business to get taxes done. The man had both a T4 slip and an Indian Status Card, gave a date of birth and a Social Insurance Number to the accountants. He received a return of $1,500. The person whose name and identity were stolen never got the refund, and had never been in B.C., said Cpl. Holly Marks, Langley RCMP spokesperson. Police are asking for help identifying the fake tax filer, along with several other suspects in recent crimes. An attempt to use a stolen credit card was foiled by an alert clerk on May 5. A young man walked into the Esso gas station in the 19700 block of Fraser Highway and tried to buy several gift cards using a credit card with the “tap” feature, said Marks. The clerk noticed a woman’s name on the credit card, and challenged the man for identification. The young man left the store. Anyone who recognizes the people in any of the surveillance photos, or who can help police with their investigations, can call
