🚨FRAUD ALERT! Fraudsters are creating fake social media ads and posts claiming to be @rcmpgrcpolice , FINTRAC, @JusticeCanadaEN or the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre. These posts appear as though it is a survey coming from the Government with a link to click and may also promise to help recover lost fund. If you click the link, you risk exposing your personal and financial information. You will not be taken to a Government of Canada website. Government of Canada agencies do not contact victims through social media ads or offer fund recovery services online. If you have already been affected by fraud, report it directly to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.

January marks Crime Stoppers Month 2026, a time to highlight the vital role Crime Stoppers programs play in helping law enforcement prevent and solve crime across Canada. Crime Stoppers’ ongoing national slogan, “Say It Here,” underscores the importance of providing anonymous tip information that can assist police in identifying perpetrators of crime. The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (CAFC) is joining partners across the country to emphasize how crucial tip reporting is in the fight against fraud. Fraud networks are often sophisticated and far-reaching. While some operate internationally, many criminal groups have strong ties within Canada, recruiting local facilitators and using Canadian infrastructure such as phone numbers, bank accounts, and addresses to carry out their schemes.
