BURLINGTON, ON

 

There is a notice appearing on many of the city’s web sites advising people that:

Court House - new

The people in this Provincial Offences Court House have not telephoned you and will not arrest you. It is part of a cunning scam.

Halton POA Court’s phone number is being been used in a phone scam. If you get a recorded message from 905-637-1274 please ignore the message.

Halton POA Court is not working with Revenue Canada to collect unpaid fines and does not issue warrants for arrest for unpaid fines.

The scammers are getting more creative.

Golden Rule – If in doubt – don’t
