This number is a scam - i KNOW for a fact i do not owe anything. First of all - i keep very very tight hold of my credit, have gotten a refund from the government every year, my work covers my mspo plus I called them and they said my account was clear. i have one credit card that has no balance, i have students loans in repayment.
this is a scam and i feel bad for anyone they are harassing that has debt and falls for whatever scam this is. Everytime they pretend I owe somethign and I tell them no i do not i talked to CRA last time you called from a different number - it stops for awhile, then it continues form a different number in a few weeks.

This is a scam: caller leaves mssg saying i owe canada revenue agency $5000.00.  must pay within an hour otherwise, my name will be blacklisted, all assets frozen, (driving license , bank accounts, passports) The caller's # is :  (250) 999-9061They tell you to withdraw cash - go to the Homedeopt/canadian tire - get prepaid gift cards - scratch the pin no and give this no. to the rouge caller and keep the receipt for my records and enter this reciept confirmation in my tax form. These are nothing but con men pretending to be CRA officials.  I have reported this to the police and they say as the crime is under $5000 - it does not qualify as a major crime.  while I was at he police station reporting this crime another no calls pretending to be a police officer - I gave the phone to the 'real police officer' and this rouge person was unable to answer- kept on saying that he only want to talk to me no one else.Just wanna let the whole world know of my ordeal with these scammers - rot in hell these people - preying on law abiding citizens - who work hard for their money.

They called me today.. thanks for the heads up!

Phone numbers get recycled all the time.They recycle phone numbers after 3 months, so many people could have had your phone number before.Don't worry about it.

I have to laugh while reading these comments. This number just called my parents house looking for a relative who I know has debt and likely owes to the government. Regardless, how do you people know if you owe or don't owe money to MSP or another government agency? In 31 years of my existence I have never had any issues with collections or holding debt; however, just recently I received a reassessment from Canada Revenue from a previous tax filing and apparently I owe some money back to the government. If you people simply avoid these phone calls and cry out publicly every time someone from this number calls, you will never know what the situation is. Why don't you just answer it, determine what they want, and actually deal with it.

Pretty scary. I would think illegal.

ARC collects past due accounts for msp and other government related debts, they call me constantly from many differant ph#'s and area codes.. All automated and I don't answer to robots! When I see an unknown # on my phone, I google it first, and then I know who it is next time.
