Received a call from this # this morning. No Caller Id was on the display only the number. When I answered the women on the line asked if she was talking to "and she referenced the name on a bank account". I asked who she was and why she was calling she said she was doing a survey for the RBC. Told her never to call again and hung up. Contacted RBC to report and they indicated that there should be no survey calls on their behalf unless its to follow-up on something related to the account. Just a heads up this is probably a scam how they got the account name (it's very unique) is beyond me.

I too received a call from this number (416) 233-0047. The person was just breathing through the phone which sounded very scary and I said “hello!” two times and I hang up. I went online to reverse the number to see who it is; I see that a lot of other people also have received strange phone call from this number.

The best thing to do is to call the police and report his/her sorry ass. Which I did, I wrote an email and report it through phone. If everyone here to do what I did, I am sure he will put back in jail where he belongs.

I'd researched this number online to see if was a telemarketing call....Glad I did!They keep calling my cell phone. And they never leave a message when I don't answer.

It is from Market Probe.

The guy responsible for all the telemarketers is:
Senior Vice President, Research and Operations: Mr. Tim McCutcheon, M. A. home address and phone: (416) 439-3872. 733 Scarborough Golf Club Rd. Toronto
He is also on Linketh

Got a call from that number a few moments ago, asked for my daughter by her formal name(no one else calls her that name) plus she hasn't lived with us for years. Asked if I could take message for her, the young man said no.

Well I did answer the phone, and they did not represent themselves initially, and they should have!  They asked to speak to my husband by his entire full name, which no one uses.  I told them I was his wife and they could speak with me.  The girl refused to give me any information.  I told her there is a very good chance that if this is a company, I have probably put the bill in his name and that I pay it.  She would not represent herself, and therefore I hung up.Extremely ticked off!

Getting calls from (416) 233-0047 daily,  do not know why because there is never anyone to take the call from their end.  I called Market Probe Canada  (416) 487-4144 and spoke with Tim McCutcheon, VP & Privacy Officer,  X 229They can put your phone number(s) in their own internal do-not-call list,  and scrub their clients' lists to remove your number(s) by the day's end for an indefinite period of time.Market Probe Canada40 Eglinton Avenue East Suite 300 Toronto, ON  M4P 3A2 Phone: (416) 487-4144Fax: (416) 487-4213 t.mccutcheon @ marketprobe.com
