Got a call today and the guy asked for my mother. I said she is unavailable at the moment and asked who he was, he said that he is calling from Mortgage Alliance.  I told him that I am a mortgage broker myself with the same company and we won't be needing any of their services. He said ok then hang up.

And repeat the same to mayor_miller @ toronto.ca

caller said nothing

I've gotten a few calls from some Indian a**hole (named "Gary" would you believe).  The scam was he wanted to give me a cheap mortgage and all I had to do was give him all my banking info, SIN # and so on.  The first time my wife answered she laughed and told him to suck eggs.  I wasn't as nice.  I'm listed with the CRTC no call list, so I rarely get calls now but this is different...some sort of scammer.  Time to start answering with the air horn again.  Maybe if he's deaf, he won't be able to call cause he can't hear the replies.

I got a call, the man had a foreign accent, claimed he worked for Rogers and was calling on behalf of Fido, he wanted to give me a free phone for exchange of my bank account number, my drivers liscence and my medicare, and my credit card number such as visa or mastercard. I stopped him right there and asked for his phone number and he refused, he claimed he couldn't give me the number but tried to make me belive he was legitamate.

I got a call from this number at 11:00 p.m. but didn't answer it.Thanks all of you for posting the messages.  I won't answer if they call me again.
