Canada Revenue Agency Fraud

Over the last several weeks there have been numerous complaints to Chatham-Kent Police about persons stating they are from the Canada Revenue Agency. These ‘CRA agents’ then claim that they are owed a sum of money and threaten police involvement. Payments are often demanded in the form of cash money transfers and pre-paid visa cards.

If you receive this call please ignore in full. A Government Agency will never ask for payment in this method. If you are worried the Police are coming to arrest you please call us and ask! We will gladly inform you of your wanted status.
