• ALERT
Many of you may have heard of or even received an email scam. It is a very authentic-looking internet scam called Phishing, or Fishing…
An email appearing to be an official document from a bank or other financial institution claims to need your confidential information, and when clicked on, links to another very authentic, but bogus foreign-based website, collects your banking information and proceeds to steal money from your account. Here’s a link to the RCMP’s website with more information on this and the many other kinds of Internet, Telephone and Postal frauds active in Canada.
