On May 1st, 2023 we were informed by the victim in Marcel André Vautour’s criminal fraud case for which he is facing up to fourteen years in prison, that Marcel never returned to the Upton, Quebec drug rehabilitation facility that he was required to stay at by order of the court. Marcel’s case is currently in the pro-forma stage at the Palais de Justice in Drummondville, Quebec, and there has been very little meaningful progress since his arrest on October 5th, 2022.

We were horrified to learn that not only was Marcel residing at this facility, but he was granted weekend release privileges, even after victims from across the country submitted statements and evidence to both the Drummondville police and the prosecutor in the case that Marcel is a flight risk.

Congratulations, you have been conned.

We are demanding more transparency, more resources to be devoted to this case, and a nationwide warrant.

We're starting to feel defeated. The question was shifting from, where in the world is Marcel Andre Vautour, to–is there anybody who even cares?

That's when a flurry of messages start appearing in our group chat.

“Holy s**t group call ...he is arrested. We did it.”

Follow along as we proceed with cautious optimism about the day we've been dreaming of: seeing justice served.

But could it be too good to be true?

is BACK.

Over the next 4 episodes, we’re going to tell you everything that’s happened since season 1 aired.

This crazy whirlwind starts in January 2022 with Kyra, a single mom in British Columbia, who’s working multiple jobs to build a better life for her kids. Her tip to us set off a sequence of events that have us closer than ever to getting some justice.

And we don’t want to completely spill the beans, but our twisty turny journey finds us face to face with the elusive man we’ve been chasing for 3 years.

March has been an oil tycoon, an embassy officer, a non-profit founder. He’s had cancer, a heart condition and Crohn’s disease. He’s a skilled survivalist, a truck driver, a helicopter pilot. He’s a war veteran, and a sporting goods entrepreneur.

On top of romance fraud, he’s committed business fraud, bank fraud, employment fraud, investment fraud, and medical fraud.

Even though March has a wide ranging criminal record with police reports filed across the country, he continues to evade capture. And until now, no one has examined the totality of his crimes together.

It’s déjà vu.

Despite the warrants, police reports and barrage of evidence, the shoddy legal frameworks in Canada has allowed Marcel to slip right out of Andrèa, Jodi and Kym's hands time and time again.

One of the most troubling aspects of fraud? Most people believe it could never happen to them.

And March is the ultimate conman: he’s a master opportunist who reads his victims, mirrors them, and becomes exactly what they need. With incredible detail, he constructs a web of lies designed to keep his victim’s mind swimming, so they don’t see the red flags. Fake emails, documents, hospital stays, and even a network of fake family and friends who text him from pre-scheduled burner phones.

That's how Nikola, a twenty-something tourist on a work Visa from the Czech Republic who unwittingly met “Mark” at a hostel in Toronto, ended up homeless on the streets of British Columbia.

Refusing to be seen as dupes, Kym, Andrea and Jodi created "Stop the March Madness" two years ago to raise awareness about March, seek out other victims and educate about fraud. The online campaign has collected tips, new leads, and grabbed media headlines. Not only that, they’ve found dozens of new victims - in Canada and abroad - and made shocking discoveries by digging into March’s past.

Less than 5% of romance con cases ever get reported—let alone solved—and a key reason is the shoddy legal framework surrounding these kinds of crimes.

Most victims are women, and even though these women often suffer irreparable damage both financially and psychologically, the feds consider these scams to be too ‘low stakes’ to pursue.

At the regional level, victims are often discouraged from even filing police reports --how can you prove it wasn’t just a lover’s quarrel or you weren’t lending money to a friend?

His trail of destruction has led to heartbreak, bankruptcies, foreclosures and even PTSD. He’s got open warrants for his arrest, a criminal record dating back 30 years, and the crazy part is, he’s still on the run.

Reports of Romance Cons have nearly tripled in the past few years—costing North Americans over $400 MILLION DOLLARS in 2020.

And that’s just a fraction of the real number because only 5% ever get reported.

One of the most troubling aspects of these crimes? Most people believe it could never happen to them.

A key reason is the shoddy legal framework surrounding these kinds of crimes. Most victims are women. And even though these women often suffer irreparable damage both financially and psychologically, the feds consider these scams to be too ‘low stakes’ to pursue.
