While RCMP did not have any frauds reported over the past week, “Phishing” scams continue to be seen across the region. If you receive an unsolicited email, text, or phone call, do not provide any information. Fraudsters are getting very sophisticated and will try anything to get your information or for you to click on a link. In some cases victims are threatened to provide a ransom, in others a refund or parcel reception requires you click on a link. The safest option should you receive anything you are unsure of is delete it, and if you are concerned, call the requester from outside the link. For example if you get a text saying its from Canada Revenue Agency(CRA) and you are getting a refund. Delete it and call CRA on your own to clarify any questions you might have. Be extremely careful in replying to any messages or clicking on any links
