It's absolutely nothing but a total scam - and a very stupid one at that. I'm sure the tax people would be very interested to know what I've been evading as it would certainly come as news to them. This is just some idiotic outfit with apparently nothing better to do than make these nuisance calls - twice today so far. And again, when I called back - busy.

I too have received the threatening call from an idiot that said they were from CRA... Come get us [***]

I just got the same type of call.  Said someone at my house...no name..was going to get arrested for tax fraud and tax evation.  And to call them back.  Ugh.  How did they get my number?

I got a call (a message) yesterday from a different 613 number and also a different south Asian male's voice, but the same idiotic spiel about needing to call them back to avoid going to jail. And yet again, when I called the number, all I got was a busy signal.

The caller did indeed have a south Asian/Indian accent, and the saved message began with "Before you get arrested." I was advised to return the call ASAP. I did call back and got a busy signal. Ridiculous.

Had a message on our answering machine when I got home from work today.They were from CRA (used the  initials) and that we were going to be arrested for tax evasion. Didn't give a name to tell us who was going to be arrested!! And to phone them immediately to get more details and once again mentioned being arrested and going to jail.Person also had an accent.
