613-366-5316

Scam!

Received a very menacing, pre-recorded call from this number.  The called indicated that it was CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) and that they were taking immediate action due to my inability to settle debts with CRA, and actions would include foreclosure on my home, seizing of my assets and possible arrest, if I did not call 613-366-5316 right away and make arrangements to settle the outstanding debt.  This is all quite funny, actually, because we just received our income tax refund from CRA, one week ago!   DO NOT call these scammers back, and DO NOT be intimidated by them!  They are preying on peoples' fear.

This people hang up in your ear and then when you call them back to confront them they ask if you are so and so and when you tell them no they rudely hang up on you, then they call you back a half hour later and you call them again to confront them and once again ask if you are so and so and before you get the words stop calling me out they have hung up on you!!!  They claim they are the CRA upon answering the phone, now we all know you would never get CRA without pressing options before speaking to a person! SCAM

Scam
Received the same message as above from this number. Threatened to put a lean on my account in 24 hrs for unpaid debts, send a collection officer, and threatened to arrest me..

Also received message....very nasty menancing as well....613-366-5316 The called indicated that it was CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) and that they were taking immediate action due to my inability to settle debts with CRA, and actions would include foreclosure on my home, seizing of my assets and possible arrest, if I did not call 613-366-5316 right away and make arrangements to settle the outstanding debt. DO NOT call these scammers back, and DO NOT be intimidated by them!  They are preying on peoples' fear. I have no issues with Canada Revenue Agency. I decided to look to see if anyone else got this nasty call...and it looks like a few people have been targeted. Beware!!!!

The United States is going through the same thing,  but in our case the alleged call are from the IRS. In fact my mother received tow of them. I have even seen posts from people in Canada claiming that they also received calls from the IRS. That makes me wonder if these telemaggoters forget which country they are calling.

Similar story as the others - though mine was a message on voice mail. No name of who they were trying to reach in our multi-person roommate style household. CRA- debts owing, collectors would be at my door just as soon as the paperwork was filed; possible arrest etc. Obvious spoofed line as call display came up as a string of numbers for the name and then this number under number. CRA communicates by mail and furthermore would never leave this type of message as it breaks privacy laws.

Ignore this call. I just got the message myself. The script they left on my voicemail (bad grammar included) is as follows:

"This message is to inform you that the CRA has decided to initiate legal proceedings against your name, so in next 24 hours we will be making a lien on your assets and your bank accounts due to your inability to settle your dues with the CRA. A bill collection officer would visit to you soon to complete the paperworks. If you have any questions then call our tax default line at the number that is 613-366-5316. I again repeat the number, it’s 613-366-5316. If you don't call immediately, or if you don't hear from your attorney either, then you'll be sole responsible person for all the legal consequences which also includes an arrest warrant that is being issued on your name. So for any further queries give us a call back immediately. Have a nice day. "

Just ignore.  The message I got was exactly what Jay received.  Very menacing voice until he told me to have a nice day.  Do not respond.

Called saying we owe money and all costs will be on us if we don't call back.

My mother got the same message on her answering machine. This number is a scam: 613-366-5316
