There appears to be this very convincing e-mail arriving in the mailbox for many which looks like an official e-mail from Canada Revenue. This e-mail basically mentions how you qualify for a tax credit refund and that you simply need to provide some personal information like your social security number to claim it. This is basically one of those phishing scams and for this one they actually use what appears to be the Canada Revenue letterhead to make it appear as if it is very legitimate.
Most of the people I know haven’t even done their taxes yet and so getting this refund e-mail should be a red flag trigger by itself. Would of been a nice way to get some tax money back though.
