Got  a call and no message

1-(403) 255-8807 CREDIT SERVICES are spamming Nova Scotia again. BLOCK or don't answer Formerly 701-625-5003 & 312-878-9652 Same Scam in Halifax Nova Scotia. US Based FRAUDSTERS. Hung up when I asked the guys name. Complaint filed with CRTC National DO NOT CALL LIST. Number is in Alberta, but the Fraudsters are in the US, I suspect still in Dakota, which I have the entire STATE blocked, due to no agreement between US and CAN Do Not Call Lists.

Just got a call from this number yesterday. Thanks for the heads up people! Hamilton, ON

Would like this caller to satop calling

Kevin,As much as I'd like to see these companies go down and get charged by the police, I think it's unfair to blame the cops on this one.  These scammers register these phone numbers under false names and addresses so tracking them down would be next to impossible.I suppose the only other thing one might do is what someone already suggested (and I don't remember exactly who right now) and contact the provider of the telephone number (which can be found on many reverse-lookup sites, even if there is no owner information) and say that you're getting harassing/scam calls from this number.  Might not hurt to file a police report before you do this so you can give the telephone company the report number for their file.  If they get enough complaints about any given number, they can cancel it.Although, I'm sure that these scammers have a dozen numbers set up, so losing one won't be a big deal.  The problem is just SO big, where does one start?

Dave,Don't waste your money on a cell phone if you think it'll stop these calls.  I get just as many of these stupid calls on my cell as I do on my land line.  I have a feeling that many of these companies just blind-dial all the numbers (i.e. 0000-9999) in any given prefix they know is associated with a given city, regardless of if it's related to a land line or cell.
