Not so much a 'spotting' as a 'hearing.'

So far today I've had 2 messages from the same scammer, basically telling me there is an arrest warrant in my name, and if they don't hear back from me at the given number, the results will be on my head.

It sounded "off," of course (who phones somebody to WARN them there's an arrest warrant out for them??) but I was curious, so called the number after the first message ... only to be connected with the Canada Revenue Agency's Tax Audit Department. The gentleman on the other end said RevCan NEVER calls people if there's a problem with their taxes; they send a registered letter.

First message was this morning; second was five minutes ago.

What kind of idiot scammers (a) leave a message, and (b) give you a phone number to a REAL government agency?!

Anyway, if you get this message, just snicker and delete it.

Someone called my mothers phone claiming they're canada revenue. They proceeded to tell her she owed money. When she told them that that is absurd and that the government doesn't just call people he told her he will send the police to have her arrested. Thankfully i have warned her literally 3 days prior of all these scams going around and she was prepared. People take this seriously and spread the message tell everyone you know. Never give out any personal information. I have called the general police line and the gentleman told me this has been happening too much lately and that canada revenue NEVER calls people. Spread the word especially to our elders who seem to be the scammers main target.

I have a little experience I'd like to share. I was at the post office and overheard (let's face it I'm nosy) a woman asking the post office clerks for an "iTunes" card. They didn't know what she was talking about and I was half busy packaging something up. The woman was in her 70's and then asked for the nearest payphone. She seemed distressed, and she left. The two clerks began talking about how strange it was and I asked for clarity. I then remembered reading an article about an "iTunes CRA scam" on line this morning. I decided to drive around and look for her. Sure enough she was a few blocks away on a payphone and I parked and went up to her as she was speaking and providing someone over the phone with her home address I said "EXCUSE ME" really loud. She turned her back on me and seemed 'on the edge'. I pulled up the article about the iTunes card scam on my cell phone and held it up to her face. She still didn't acknowledge me. I then said really loud "I THINK YOU ARE ON THE PHONE WITH A SCAMMER NOT CANADA REVENUE"... then she looked at me and hung up the phone because the person on the other end heard me and hung up on her. I then explained to her and she told me that CRA called and said if she didn't pay $3000 right away she would be arrested and there was warrant out for her 2013 taxes were done wrong. She was told not to tell anyone in her family about it and to get to a shoppers drug mart right away and purchase an iTunes card for $3000.00 and call them back from a payphone. She literally fell apart in front of me and I took her to the Tim Horton's bought her a coffee and called the police. Luckily she still had her money on her. The police were wonderful (thank you WPS) but these low life scum bags are getting away with thousands of dollars of scamming innocents. Please call your elders and let them know about this scam Canada Revenue will not call your home or tell you over the phone to pay in any way!! nor will anyone. Hang up and call 911.

To the individual(s) who felt it necessary to steal my tailgate, thank you. It was a silly tailgate, I didn't need it to keep stuff IN the back of my truck...I mean, really, why do they put those things on pickups anyway?!

I just wanted to you to know that you should be proud of yourself(ves). It takes a skilled man (or woman) to go on to someone else's property, and physically remove pieces of their truck while parked in THEIR driveway. Your mother(s) raised some fantastic kid(s), I only hope that you, yourself, get to encounter the same actions of such wonderful humans! What goes around, comes around... Enjoy the tailgate, you obviously needed it more than I did.

Tailgate is off a black Dakota Sport w/ "DODGE" in red decals and part of the bedliner on it (which has probably been removed). It fits a '97-03. Taken from Gladstone ave.

To the middle aged lady in the black Journey who rolled by every stop sign in Forest Glade at 3:30pm: it makes me sick that we have such careless drivers in a community with a lot of grade schools and pedestrians. Please slow down and fully stop. These stop signs are here for a reason! Please change your driving habits because you ARE going injure someone in the future.
