The reports further state that individuals are called by scam artists claiming to be from the Canada Revenue Agency who attempts to convince victims to pay debts through iTunes gift cards.
People are reminded to ask for identification from anyone asking them to send money and that legitimate agencies will never ask for payment through iTunes or gift cards of any kind.
