As if we didn’t have enough to worry about right now, fraudsters are trying to take advantage of people with a text scam.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau warned of the Emergency Response Benefit text scam and said to only use the government website to apply for aid.
The text says that a deposit has been made by the relief benefit and then you are asked to click a link to claim it. It is not from the federal government so best to just delete it.
