Some of the international students at Fanshawe have reported to have been receiving calls from impostors posing as officials from ‘immigration’, ‘police’ and ‘Revenue Canada’, trying to seek personal and financial details.
“He was pretending to be an immigration officer and asked for my bank statement in order to see if I’m eligible for visa extension.” – Jagmohan Singh, International StudentĀ
Fanshawe International Centre is investigating further details about the impostors.
As per the state rule none of the above departments ever seek personal and financial information over the phone.
