Great, the very next day after I filed my income tax on line, it was announced that the CRA (Canadian Revenue Agency) was shutting down their computers due to a computer virus called "heart bleed". It turns out this was known for about two years and our information has been at risk to hackers. It was also announced today on the radio that about a thousand Canadian SIN numbers are compromised. I only hope that mine was not one of them. I did receive tonight via email one of the scam emails that have been sent to Canadian tax payers, telling me that I need to register with one of our Government agencies to receive a larger return. Of course, I know this is a scam and deleted it. Unreal.
