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 got a call from this number while my daughter was at work. The girl asked for her by just her first name.  I am afraid I was rude, then I got wondering if it was someone she had known before I moved in with her, so I googled, and sure enough - it looks like it was the evil, creepy Rbc AGAIN!!I am getting really tired of this intrusiveness.

(416) 233-0047Called the number (416) 233-1555The girl was actually pretty pleasant and due to "CONFIDENTIALITY REASONS" could not tell me who they were calling on behalf of.I laughed... Confidentiality, and meanwhile YOU have my UNLISTED NUMBER and MY NAME.Also told her that if they can NOT dial a phone themselves, then they should not be in this business.I am SO SICK of Computer dialed marketing, I thought that this type of marketing was IllegalThanks to one of the previous post, I have now been taken off their list

always calling me-have called back always busy or no answer. No Id just telephone # shows. Really annoying.They Will not leave voice mail either. I am in Nova Scotia.

Tired of this number calling me....do the RCMP have a fraud line that someone can report this to?

That same number called me last night, and asked for my first name only (which was odd). I didn't recognize the number or voice (it was a girl) so I said she had the wrong number, and she hung up. No other calls from them so far ...But this does sound like a scam. I've been looking it up, and apparantely, they're doing a 'survey for RBC', yet RBC doesn't work with them.

They called yesterday evening around 8 pm asked for my commonlaw by his full name French speaking lady wouldnt leave a message.
