Answered call from (204) 477-0924; calling "on behalf of the Globe & Mail".  I replied with "Do not call again, thank you" and hung up.... so far no further calls.

Thanks for this link - filed a complaint today.

I get calls from these a***oles too.  No answer...just silence and then hang up.   What's amazing is that they can get away with this annoying b***s***.  You can call Ma Bell and explain what's going on but Bell gives a s***.  The "do not call" lists give a s***.  If you see this number come up on your "call display" and you happen to have an air horn next to your phone, one that gives about a 120 decibel blast.  Or...an emergency whistle is also a good "answering system" for calls like this.   'Nuff said.

204 is Manitoba (likely Winnipeg) as that is where a lot of call centers have been moved in Canada (central and cheap labour).

They called my land-line at 09:59 Pacific.I picked-up the telephone, and said nothing.After a few seconds of silence, I hear a "hello".I said "hello, thank you for calling our company. We provide pay-by-the-minute language translation service.  To continue, I will require your VISA or MasterCard number".After a few seconds, the telemarketer hung-up(!) on me.

I keep getting this call on my cell, I don't answer and it will not stop calling.  How do I make it stop!!
