Got a call from this number.  Obvious CC Scam

I answered because I was expecting a call from a service technician. Caller had a thick Indian accent and asked for us by last name.  Our last name is often mispronounced, but this was so butchered I honestly didn't think he was asking for us.  Then he spelled the last name, and it sounded like ours, but either misspelled or he gave another common last name, and I figured anyone credible actually looking for us would at least be able to read off the spelling of our name correctly.  

When I said they must have the wrong number, he proceeded to double check the phone number (which was right, but we've only had this number for 2 months and it's just a security land line so no one really has this number) but when he said, "Is this your postal code?" and read off a postal code from another province (compared to the phone number's area code) that actually sounded like my very first postal code from my first apartment (2 provinces and 12 years ago) I figured this call was either definitely not for us, or someone going off of a mix of cobbled together information from our credit history.  In either case, no one I needed to speak to.

When I said no that's not our postal code in a confused (not angry tone), he blurted out, "I'm sorry!" as in (Geez, don't yell at me!)  That made me think that he got a lot of negative responses from people he called, so I was more inclined to think he was a telemarketer or scammer than a legit business call.  

He never did say where he was calling from (which I didn't think was weird, since he claimed to be calling for someone that wasn't us, so really he has no business saying where he's calling from to the wrong person as far as I'm concerned).

Tried to call my cell phone. I've heard some voice, very briefly, on my messaging system.

Got a call from this number March 27th. 2010. After answering phone no one said anything but could hear someone breathing on other side. After telling them to f...off , hung up.

Hi, this is an obvious Nigerian Scam. They are renowned for fraud and scamming with fake certified checks, cerdit cards and even they can hack into bank accounts and transfer to overseas accounts. Ive been had once, and they tried manhy times after...If this number shows up on your telephone, answer it and notify them then you have softward to retrace calls to a fized adress, that should at least scare them off to anyther potential victim

Called around noon, left a weird message, did not appear on call list.  Called to find out who was calling and they were asking questions about my credit card number.  Very strange call, I reported it to the police and my credit card company.
