The FCAA Warns Saskatchewan Residents of Scams Targeting Wildfire Evacuees

Released on June 13, 2025

The Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority of Saskatchewan (FCAA) is warning residents of scams that are targeting wildfire evacuees. The messages claim to be from the Canadian Red Cross and request personal and banking information in order to process payments.

The Canadian Red Cross has issued a fraud alert regarding Manitoba and Saskatchewan wildfires advising that individuals eligible for financial assistance will NOT need to provide their social insurance number, bank account information or credit card number during their registration to receive assistance. 

In light of this recent scam, the FCAA encourages all Saskatchewan residents to be mindful if you are contacted by a charitable organization requesting personal or banking information. 

Scam red flags (email, phone and text)

  • Emails coming from a domain that does not match the company.
  • Unsolicited calls or texts from unknown numbers.
  • Messages with spelling or grammar errors.
  • Requests for personal or banking information.
  • Pressure to act quickly. 
  • Too-good- to-be-true offers. 
  • Suspicious links and attachments. 
  • If you are unable to confirm the organization's registration or licence.

Tips to protect yourself from scams 

  • Do not answer or engage with unsolicited messages. 
  • Do not click on any links or attachments.
  • Never share personal information (SIN, bank account, credit card) through email, phone or text.
  • If you suspect you have received a scam email, phone call or text, contact your local police or the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre immediately.
