It happens to the best of us! If you accidentally engaged with a suspicious tax link, don’t sweat it; just take these three quick steps:

  1. Update your passwords for your CRA My Account and your primary email.
  2. Alert your bank if any financial info was shared.
  3. Report the incident to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.

A quick response is your best defense. Stay calm, take action, and you’re back in control!
