Wing Fung Wilfred Leung faces nine counts each of fraud under $5,000 and possession of property obtained by crime.

Leung allegedly approached younger Chinese residents in the North York area and said he needed gas money to drive to university or to pick up family.

Police said the accused would allegedly request an e-transfer from the complainant, promise to pay the money back and allow them to take pictures of his identification to gain their trust.
