Langley Mounties are looking for a 57-year-old man accused of preying on senior citizens across Canada.

They say Richard Earl Rupert is not only wanted on an arrest warrant by them, but by more than a dozen police departments around the country.

Langley Police allege that last week, he managed to convinced an elderly woman walking home from the grocery store that he was the son of a family friend.

He told her he needed money to fix his car, and took her to an ATM, where she withdraw a wad of cash and handed it over.

Rupert is described as white with receding gray hair and a pock-marked face.
