So, I've received another batch of identity-theft spam, targeting #Canada #Canadian #Canadians with #investment -related #IdentityTheft #scams.

The messages direct the target to update their US IRS W-8BEN forms, which require that you enter a bunch of personal information, and are probably stealing login and password and #2FA codes to get access to investment accounts.

Remind your family and friends, especially the elderly and non-tech-savvy folks to NEVER click links in eMails from banks or investment companies.

The targets this week are #TDBank, #NationalBank, but they have previously attempted to impersonate #Questrade and #RBC and #wealthsimple

Questrade wants to launch a bank called Questbank and they received approval today

It's utterly unreal that #CIBC won't let me pull a transaction history for anything older than 13 months. They want me to manually open 36 PDF files if I want to see my transactions for the past 3 years. Is this a prank? Where's the hidden camera?

#Questrade takes about a minute to pull this data. This is why #EveryoneHatesCIBC and everyone hates banks.
