Avoiding Scams

Types of Scams

Phone Scams

IRCC, Service Canada, and other government organizations will never call and ask you to transfer money to an individual, provide payment over the phone or online, or pay a fee. Nor will they text you asking you for personal information. Here are some points to remember if you receive a phone call that you are concerned about:

  • If in doubt, you can contact the organization directly.
  • Do not give the caller ANY personal information, even if they have some of your information already.
    • Do not share information about your bank account, SIN, contact information, address, etc.
  • If you feel uncomfortable, end the conversation.

Phishing Scams

You may receive an official-looking email that asks you to provide personal information such as bank account information and passwords. These types of emails may look like they are from a 平特五不中 account听and will try to trick you into clicking on an unreliable link or opening an attachment with a virus. Always check the URL when you open a link from your email. If you receive a concerning email听or if you get hacked, report it to 平特五不中 IT听and change your password immediately.

Employment Scams
