Scam. Left an authoritative machine recorded message saying they had tried to reach me for days, there was a lawsuit filed against me by the CRA with an arrest warrant and l had to call that number. Yeah, right.

I received the same recorded message.  I'm sure the CRA would have no trouble reaching me if they really had to.

Found a message from them on my phone when I got home from work yesterday.  Tried calling back, but the line was always busy, except for one time when I was prompted to leave a message, then promptly told that it was full so I couldn't leave one (not terribly professional).  Tried again today from my desk at work at the Canada Revenue Agency.  Got through, and a male voice informed that the CRA had filed some sort of charges against me with the RCMP, and was asked if I'd been contacted by the RCMP.  I said I hadn't, and nor had the CRA contacted me, neither at home nor at work - within the CRA.  He asked if I`d like him to forward information regarding the charges to either me or the local RCMP, and I said that if there were any actual charges, I`d like to know what they are, so send them to me.  He asked me to have paper and pen ready, and then hung up on me.  Maybe it was an accident, or maybe he didn`t want to deal with a COBOL programmer from the CRA...

Pretty sure it`s a scam.  I`ve had some minor trouble with CRA before (late filing; I guess they were tired of holding onto my couple hundred dollars), but they sent actual physical, official letters in the mail; they didn`t have mysterious third parties make ominous computerized phone calls.

I have twice tried to call back (in order to get the information about the charges filed against me, of course!), but both times the phone just rang and rang, the first time I counted about a dozen rings before hanging up, the second I counted about four before they hung up.  They haven`t put me on a block list, have they?  I'm shocked, I tell you; shocked!

Now they want ME to call them to get scammed? harharhar.... What a bunch of idiots. I've reported their numbers to the RCMP and blocked them at this end...
