hey loser. i'm your wife. how do you not know me?

Just so people know, the company that is attached to this number is in fact called CRA. HOWEVER, it is a debt collection agency and NOT Canada Revenue.

I would advise against giving anyone from that number your personal information, as if they are the government like they would have people believe, they would have it in front of them when they call (I asked a rep from Canada Revenue about it the last time I spoke to them).

This is directly from the Governement of Canada website:

Call to discuss payment arrangements for debts owing to Human Resources and Skills Development Canada,  such as;  defaulted Canada Student loans, Employment Insurance Overpayments, Employment Programs overpayments and Canada Pension Plan overpayments.

1-866-864-5823

It also states that they never ask for SIN or any other personal information on the phone or by email.

CCRA is an old acronym that the fitment hadn't been using for some time now. It was Canada Customs and  Revenue Agency now its just Canada Revenue Agency. If they said CCRA then its definitely a scam

people are saying they are identifying themselves as revenue canada.. i got a call and they were looking for a super at some building.. sounds fishy.  DONT GIVE ANYONE ANY INFO> TELL THEM TO F OFFF

This is a fake! they are scamming people for money and info.. check out this link for more info from the gov on security breach: http://www.canlearn.ca/eng/main/spotlighton/privacy/index.shtml 

I got the call and they were on my facebook for information. They were MUCH too nice to me to be the CRA LOL ! The CRA would give me a min payment and that would be it, they would say "just pay what you can.." .. He was really trying to get me to send money. I wouldnt give him any info.. if that was CRA they wouldnt be so nice about it!

dont trust it! protect your info... and share so other people know!

Our student loan info, that was on a hard drive in Quebec, got stolen?!?!?! (check it out here:http://www.canlearn.ca/eng/main/spotlighton/privacy/index.shtml )
How is this ok?? I think our loans should be forgiven for this breach of privacy!!
Some people may have already had their identity or money stolen!
FOr this risk, WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY A CENT! That is the only fair thing to offer!
What a horrible thing to happen..

they call here and asked for my sin and address not even asking my name. I told them to [***] off

Got the call today and the idiot completely butchered my name.  I called after 5 and thought it was weird that I was on hold after 4:30.  Waited 15 mins and clued in that something wasn't right.  Decided to google the toll number I was given and found this.  I got the messed up letter from HRSDC and know that my info was on that hard drive.  Annoying thing is hubby got the same letter to.  Guess I'll be phoning Equifax in the morning.  &uckers.

I freaked when i saw this number on my cell phone. I then realized it was someone i already know who works for CRA and he was calling me from work. The number is legit, it is the collections department in the Vancouver office.

I received a call from this number yesterday. They guy on the phone said he was from the Canada Revenue Agency and wanted to update my information. The first thing he asked for was my birth date and SIN number. This is obviously a scam and I didn't give him this information. If you get a call like this, give them no information and call the CRA yourself. I called the CRA and they said they have no record of anyone calling to update my information and the case number he gave me on the phone was not valid.

I could understand wanting to verify/update my address, but why would he need to verify/update my birth date and SIN which would NEVER CHANGE.

Looks like a shill for the fraud here.

got call from this number many times and  they wanted last 3 digits of my SIN and tax gst #

got call this morning, she wanted my birthday and last 3 number of my SIN
I told her, if this is a fake what can I do?

I received a call from this number and, not recognizing it, didn't answer.  The phone indicated 'Message Waiting' and I checked my messages, receiving a call from an indivdual from the CRA with whom I'd been working for a number of months.  She simply asked me to return her call and left a different number.  It was all ligitimate.

Got a call from this number today asking for my daughter (who has NOT lived here for about 20 years). I asked who was calling and was told "Government of Canada." I asked if they wanted to leave a message and they gave a toll free number (1-800-661-5991) for her to call, and when I asked if there was a message on what it was regarding he said "it's the Government of Canada." Our kids are all grown and moved out long ago, and they all have their own contact information. They have however given our number as a contact number "for emergency purposes." I find it asinine that anyone would call this number for any reason other than an emergency. If you want to reach my kids, kindly phone them or send mail to them at their own residence. And if you can't reach them by phone, definitely have the common sense to send them snail mail instead of harassing their elderly parents. I am NOT an "answering service" for your convenience.

Further to my other post... If you can't leave a proper message - do everyone a favour and go find a job that does not involve using the telephone!

its a real number... its Canada Revenue Agency for Federal Student loans that are in arrears... they do ask for your SIN but i wasn't comfortable... so i gave the first part of the number and he verified the last numbers... he also knew my suite # of my condo and my payment arrangement dollar amount... talk to them... cooperate... they'll be good to you

Got a call from this number and it wasn't for a student loan it was about a family member that passed away saying they had owed them money and because I inherited a large amount of money they wanted me to pay it when I asked for the amount they refused to give it to me saying that because the debt wasn't mine they couldn't give me an amount owing THIS NUMBER IS A SCAM the cra would tell you the amount owing if they wanted there money back and they wouldn't call someone who isn't the person owing if someone owing them money passes away it would be there loss no one else's

Sorry people but this is the CRA I am accountant and we get these calls weekly for clients, they ask you for your sin number to prove to them who you are even though they are the ones phoning you
If you do get someone who is totally not listening to you ask to speak to their supervisor they have to let you talk to them.
When someone passes away the CRA usually wants a clearance certificate to show that the person who passed away had no taxes owning then the remaining money gets inheritied so yes you will be and so would anyone else who receivied money from the estate owing that money sorry again
