my Friend got a call today from 1 289 203 0016 So I listened to the message When he said his name was Robert Smith I Laughed and ask my friend How many East Indian people Have the last name Smith LoL Total scam
I got a call from someone claiming to be from Revenue Canada (but sounded from India). When I asked what department they said Investigations. I asked what number to call as proof and they gave me this one 289-206-0016. Upon calling actual Revenue Canada, they said my account was fine and it was probably a scam. The number is from Bolton area. Upon calling it, it says someone from India says "Revenue Canada" please leave a message.
I got an obviously bogus call that left this number. Claimed to be from "CRA" but didn't sound like he even knew who that is. Wants me to call him back or "an arrest warrant will be issued in your name". He concludes with "God Bless". Frickin' moron. I have his message recorded and hoped there was someone I could forward it to for prosecution.
You should file a report with your real CRA. Most of these calls are coming from India and Pakistan though, not much our governments can do at this point. Consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or so. If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number. For tracfone & straight talk:
