Recent complaints reveal a wave of fraudulent SMS messages spoofing the Canada Revenue Agency, Service Ontario, and DHL. Recipients see urgent language, fake links, and requests for payments or e‑transfer deposits. Never click links or provide personal info unless you verify directly through the agency’s official website or phone line. Use your carrier’s block feature, report the number to the FTC’s spam‑report portal, and enable two‑factor authentication on banking apps. If a message mentions a parking ticket or delivery you didn’t expect, call the organization using a known number—not the one in the text. Stay skeptical and keep your accounts protected.
