Beware of anyone calling you up claiming to be from the Canada Revenue Agency.
It’s a telephone scam and the RCMP say they have received more than 20 complaints about this fraud from around the province over the past 24 hours.
Fraudsters call you up claiming to be from the Canada Revenue Agency and demand money by saying you owe the government overdue taxes.
The callers are aggressive and often claim they will come to the your house and arrest you if the money isn’t paid. They speak with a foreign accent and insist the money be paid immediately either by credit card or via Western Union.
Police say Revenue Canada never does business like this over the phone.
