the revenue canada one never fails to amuse me because if you drag out the call you get bounced around to three or four people and all of them have names like officer tim, john or mary but yet everyone one of them has an accent and you can hear many different voices in the background also with accents (#youpeople)
never ceases to crack me up how they dupe people into paying thier tax bill via bitcoin or itunes or other gift cards.

I don’t personally find this funny at all. They prey on vulnerable people.
I was in a cab back from the airport and had to explain to my driver that it was not legitimate. He was relatively new to our country, and seemed quite scared by one particular call.
I gave him some pieces of advice, in terms of red flags to look for, and some ways to protect himself.
