This is John Barker from Canadian Revenue Agency -- You are in serious tax arrears -- You or your attorney must call back right away -- Time Sensitive --If you don't call "GOOD LUCK" -- (TOTAL Scam call)
My house got called and this guy "John Barker" with an Indian accent asked for my mother... He said that he was calling from the Canadian Revenue Agency and that he was some kind of officer... She wasn't home, but he continued to ask questions regarding her employment during certain years and asked if she had paid her taxes... He proceeded by saying that there is a balance due of $X and that if she does not pay that balance she would be arrested...
I later called and the line was busy or a recording said that it was out of service... I continued to call until finally I got through and this guy with an Indian accent picked up. He said that he was representing the Canadian Revenue Agency. He asked me if I receive a call from this number so I said yes. He then asked me what number I was calling from, because my number is displayed as private, I gave him a made up number. He then said that he did not call this number and that unless I provided him with a number that he had called that he could not help me...
I them asked him what it all was about and he repeated himself then eventually hung up on me.
This is obviously a fraudulent call and that if you received a call from this number you should not be alarmed. What is most important is to not give out any personal information over the phone because the Canadian Revenue Agency themselves do not operate that way.
What I invite you all to do is to report this to the RCMP fraud department: 1-888-495-8501. They are open during regular business hours.
Bonsoir, j'ai reçu 2 messages téléphoniques, en anglais, de John Parker qui a un accent étranger; probablement indien. Le message est le même que celui mentionné ci-dessus de Friendly Mom.
Je n'ai pas retourné le message.
Salutations!
