People in Canada ! There is a regular scam going on. I have had 4 phone calls today of Revenue Canada threatening to sue you, call your attorney and what not within 24 hours unless you pay up.
We all just filed our taxes and all that. BE ASSURED that Revenue CANADA does NEVER send canned phoned calls. You all got your " results" in writing.
DO NOT FALL for those fakes. Be careful though. Someone might come around demanding money by whatever means.

THIS IS SCAM AND FRAUD. AND SOME PEOPLE STILL FALL FOR IT. REVENUE CANADA DOES NOT AND I REPEAT DOES NOT SEND THREATENING PHONE CALLS. IT IS ALL IN WRITING.

Yesterday, my husband answered via our speaker phone. It was a man from India, and he started the same spiel about being from Microsoft. I heard his last name was Wilson, and I yelled, "That's the same idiot who tried to cheat us out of $400.00 three months ago!" "Tell him to never call us again, and hang up!" I'm not usually so rude to people.
I couldn't believe he was stupid enough to call us again, but maybe he doesn't keep track of those who chewed him out the first time that we almost fell for having a lifetime technician for all of our computers.
