The police want to remind people the CRA will never request for prepaid credit cards; will never ask for information about your passport health card, or driver’s license; will never share your taxpayer information with another person, unless you have provided the appropriate authorization; and will never leave your personal information on your answering machine or ask you to leave a message containing your personal information on an answering machine.

When in doubt, people can ask themselves the following: Is there a reason that the CRA may be calling? Do I have a tax balance outstanding? Is the requester asking for information I would not include with my tax return? Is the requester asking for information I know the CRA already has on file for me? How did the requester get my email address or telephone number? Am I confident I know who is asking for the information?

If you have received one of these calls, please contact the Prince Albert Police Service at 306-953-4222 or the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre onlineor toll free at 1-888-495-8501.
