Don’t be fooled by people calling your phone who claim to be Canadian Revenue Agency representatives, especially if they are threatening you with arrest.
Another CRA scam is making the rounds and a Castlegar resident has been duped out of $1,200.
Castlegar RCMP Sgt. Laurel Mathew says the individual was told to purchase that amount in Steam fast cards for video games and to provide the bar codes to a phoney CRA rep.
Mathew says the CRA will never send officers to arrest anybody.
She adds these scams happen with gift cards from any number of stores.
