I just got a call from a man claiming to be from the CRA. He knew my name. He said he was with the police and I was being sued for tax evasion. I went to get my husband and he hung up.
A call came from this number pretending to be from CRA (Canada Revenue Service). It was a recorded message saying that there was a lawsuit against us and that if we didn't call back to that number immediately with the information they needed we would be responsible for all parties legal costs.
NOT !! It's a scam!!
The vagueness was the first clue that it was a scam. No name given.
CRA, or any business, does NOT do business this way (phone calls with threats). This is extortion pure and simple.
Finally, if you are being sued, an officer of the court arrives at your door with a paper summons or subpoena to appear in court. You don't get a vague threatening phone call.
This guy called me to day and said he is from the crime investigation of Canada. When I asked him for a full name. There is no answer. And he cuts me off. RCMP please investigation on this telephone scam.
Received a call today from this number, automated call stating they were from the CRA, that there was a lawsuit against me and if I did not call back I would be responsible for costs.
This is a scam!!! do not call back these people and give personal info!!!!!!! Beware!!!
