Digital Government and Service NL February 23, 2021 The Department of Digital Government and Service NL has been informed that residents of the province are receiving automated telephone calls claiming to be from the legal branch of the department. These calls are fraudulent and residents should hang up immediately. While Caller ID is a useful function, the information displayed can be altered by criminals. Never rely on the displayed information only to confirm the identity of the caller whether it be an individual, company or a government entity, even if it appears to be from a local number. Anyone who receives a suspicious communication should immediately report it to the Anti-Fraud Centre of Canada or call 1-888-495-8501.

By Sharron Callahan, Chair of NL Seniors & Pensioners Coalition Note: The letter below was sent on March 18 to Minister Sarah Stoodley and Minister John Abbott to express concern with the rapid movement to online services and other digitally-based ways of doing business, resulting in many vulnerable persons, including seniors, being left behind.
