Got the same scam CRA message today. Fraud. Is there no way to find out who they are? Great to see them get roasted. They did increase blood pressure for a short time until the number was checked!
Yup. I just got the same call. Silliness. The accent of the caller did not match the name, e.g. Ryan Smith (English name....and super generic) and the accent was Eastern for sure. He didn't even identify Revenue Canada properly and he actually threatened me that if I didn't return the call I'd be in terrible danger. Does this scam actually work on anyone...?
Left the message on my answering machine, but did not verify who the message was for. Only mentioned his name: officer Ryan Smith from Revenue Agency. He said that we need to have a lawyer to deal with our tax issue. Yeah right...nice try fake officer Scam!
