Hello,
The International Student Center has heard of several frauds(诈骗) that are targeting international students. Someone may call and say that they are from:
·Immigration Canada
·home country’s Embassy
·Canada Revenue Agency
·Police Department
In most situations, the caller will request that you make a payment or you will face serious consequences when returning to your home country. They may talk or threaten until you make a payment. While there is no way that these fraudsters can know you are an international student (they call Canadians too), here are some things that you should know in order to better protect yourself:
·UTSC provides you with FREE Immigration advising and application help (for Study &Work Permits, Visas, Permanent Residence, and Citizenship).
·Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC),and Canadian Border Services Agency ( CBSA) will not call you, and will not ask for money or personal information by phone. If you call them, you will have to identify yourself.
·Embassies will not threaten you to make a payment or request an investigation fee due to a fake (伪造的) passport.
·Never feel like you need to pay anyone money right away. Ask for an employee number and hang up. You can call back the company (find their number online) and ask about your situation to confirm.
·Be skeptical of anyone asking you to make a payment.
·Think twice before clicking the we blinks provided and make sure they will actually go where they say.
·If you feel that you have been the victim of a fraud, you should report this to the police in the region where you live (e.g. Toronto Police Services). You can also inform Campus Police.
·If you’re not sure about something, WAIT. Come to the ISC (IC-350) and meet with a Transition Advisor. We can help you understand what’s happening.
