That “CRA agent” on the phone threatening you with arrest? Not the CRA.
Real agents don’t demand instant payment by e-transfer, Bitcoin, or gift cards. They don’t threaten police, jail, or deportation. And they never pressure you to pay right now.

Wasim breaks down exactly how to tell a real CRA call from a fake one — so you never hand your money to a stranger.
