March is Fraud Prevention Month and the RCMP are reminding you about a common scam.
It involves fraudsters posing as reps of the Canada Revenue Agency.
People get calls, emails; text messages and letters from fraudsters demanding personal and banking information.
Usually, scammers promise a refund or threaten arrest if you don’t pay up.
If you get such a call, hang up and report it to: antifraudcentre.ca
CBRM is looking at a notorious intersection in Sydney.
There are five lanes of traffic and no signals at Prince and Inglis streets. It’s near a school, the Kiwanis Pool, the Sydney Shopping Centre and a seniors club, so there are a lot of people trying to cross the street. Even with a crossing guard for the school, it is difficult according to Police Sargent Joe Farrell. He says there have been several car-pedestrian accidents there and one fatality.
CBRM is now studying whether traffic lights are needed.
