Got a message on the answering machine to call some mike wallace (cant really tell because there was static and a buzzing sound) so i called the number on my caller id. no answer. then i instantly got a call back, gave me some other name, said he was returning my call. i said no, i returned his call but no one answered. he was arguing with me about who called who and i said, who are you and what do you want. gave me a [***] answer, something about cra crime or fraud unit. and i so, what do you want, he said who am i speaking to. i said you called me, you should know who you called. i think he got fed up and just hung up. then i get a call again, one ring and hangs up. i knew it was a scam from the moment he said hello. he didn't like my attitude so he didn't want to deal with me. i called back after 5 minutes. someone else answers and saying something about how i don't know how to talk because i kept telling him how are you working for cra when you are not even in Canada. he got fed up too and hung up. i just wanted to piss them off so i kept calling the number over and over and over again. no one would pick up. i just tried now and the number doesn't work. if cra was contacting me, it wouldn't be by phone first of all and he would know my entire name, not the fake stuff i put on the internet.
the guy was talking slow at first and there was a lot of static and buzzing sounds, you can barely hear him. come on people! i can't believe there are still people out there who believe these guys. they wouldn't be doing this if people didn't give up their information.
plus the number they called me back from was not the same as the first one. but the 613 655 9944 is not working right now. or at least not for my number.
just keep calling them back over and over again, they will eventually block your number i think. i tried that today and now i can't get through. i get a funny busy signal. they probably blocked my number from their phone! haha!
the numbers i got on my phone are 613 655 9944 and 1 954 794 9258.
thanks for this site and comments I am always in good book of CRA He scared me too much and I was almost close to haert attack and under tension til I GOT HOLD OF MY ACCOUNTANT.
Same thing happened to me, he called for my Dad telling me his name is Mike Walters and he is from CRA Tax crime unit, and gave me his call back no 613 655 9944 and that my dad needs to call him back. Sounded like a Scam because the government representatives always give their government ID first and its a CRA govt phone number. THIS IS SCAM DO NOT FALL FOR IT!! I called back the number that showed up on my caller and it was a MAGIC JACK no.
The same thing just happened to me. He had an Indian accent and said his name was Richard Brooks. He said that a warrant has been issued for my arrest. He said he had some questions and was going to record the call. I hung up.
This Mike Walter phoned me today @4:45pm telling he is from CRA tax crime unit with id no.002005533SA, with his phone no:613559944. He talks so fast not giving me a chance to disturb him telling this is my last chance the CRA giving me to pay 6000$ for fraud i made with my taxation year 2008-2012, if i do not pay him now CRA will freeze everything i have in the bank, my house will be taken away, lose my job to the extent of imprisonment and penalty of $50000 if i dont pay now, i further questioned him for evidence this is not a prank call but he told me a police officer will come in 24hrs. time then he hung up on me
