705-986-0512 bogus CRA

2019/01/29: 5:07 PM EST: 705-986-0512 Barrie, Ontario robocall.

Lies about being an important second call from the Canada Treasury. Call right away to avoid going before a federal Magistrate, Judge or Grand Jury...

No reply, so I guess I'll slam them in the morning.

@Darrell64#72819 Up to their old tricks, those CRA folks! :wink:

Same message, two different numbers today, Lies about being an important second call from the Canada Treasury. Call right away to avoid going before a federal Magistrate, Judge or Grand Jury...

I told them my name was Justin Trudeau and they didn’t catch on at all :sweat_smile:

@Darrell64#72907 I had yet another robocall from 705-986-0512 today (January 30, 2019) same message, my call backs fail within 30 seconds fireRTC, Google Voice and TextNow. Seems like they disconnect if my callerID doesn’t match numbers they have called.

@urlaub14#72961 “Hendrix, can you spell please?”… “H E N D R I X”… “Jimi”… “J I M I”, lol, they never catch on. =D

@Darrell64#72976 Try using the same area code they originally called. Sometimes they block by area code. Sometimes they block by areacode and prefix, or as you said, use a whitelist. Having the area code the scammers originally called helps a lot when trying to punch past their "defenses." Scammer: "How do you keep calling us?", Me: "My phone is better than your phone" Scammer: Loses it.

uh-oh they told me I’m going to jail. Guess ill see you all in 10 years.

@Asterisk#72978 I will often callerID spoof their own number, if you rage them enough they’ll block that number…
