VANCOUVER -- A former Mission woman fraudulently raised $135 million from at least 800 investors, including more than $69 million from at least 355 B.C. investors, the B.C. Securities Commission has alleged.
In a notice of hearing Monday, BCSC enforcement staff alleged that Doris Elizabeth Nelson - who is now under house arrest in Washington state awaiting trial on criminal fraud charges - told investors their money would be used to finance her payday loan business, which operated as the Little Loan Shoppe.
