CRA – Spoofed

Joshua –

Type of a scam Tax Collection

An email claiming to be from CRA was sent to my friend

Pure scam! My friend haven’t even filed taxes yet

Please check the attached snapshot of email

It shows email address of scammer (not from CRA), added Canada flag/logo & Tax Reference # to make it look convincing, a due date to claim the refund (spelling mistake for "1th of Avril"), and a link that will direct to a page where personal details/banking information can be entered.

The email was then sent to the Junk folder and "reported as phishing scam"
