dont know what company he his, he claimed to be from CRA and that they had evidence I failed to report on my tax reports... the line was noisy like he was calling with a bad ethernet phone... beware!!
I got a computerized message on my home voicemail saying it was the CRA taking legal action on unpaid taxes and that if I didn't return the call within 24 hours and speak with Officer Wood to take down some information from me, my bank accounts would be seized. When I called the number back (613-366-4184) a man answered. I told him I got a message and wanted to know who the message was intended for. He asked for my name, when I refused to give him my number, he stopped talking as if he wasn't there anymore. I called back again and he stopped answering.
Officer Wood's real name is Yuus bin Haad Esq. and he works for the firm Dewey, Cheatem & Howe...

Typical automated message claiming I owed the CRA thousands. They would not stop calling so one day I decided to call back and give them a taste of their own medicine. I called and messed with them a bit and gave fake info and told them I knew they were a scam and I was calling the police. The man on the phone threatened me, hung up and hasn't called back since! Bye bye fake calls.
