Got a call from this no but didn't get any msg

I received this call. It is clearly a call from or claiming to be from Scotiabank trying to sell life insurance for a low low fee. First month free, and they send you a package. Second month is activated when you get your package and from then on it is automatic.

One more 'opt out' telemarketer. Could be elaborate scam but more likely to be Scotiabank.

What about those of us who did not tick the box saying that we can be contacted?

Thank you for this comments. It helped a lot.  I normally check the internet before I pick up a call from an unidentified number.  So again thank you for the warnings and info.

A friend of mine is constantly getting calls, and he's not a customer of Scotiabank.

Got few calls from (416) 581-8705 spammerAlso on their web site found number to call them back...Called them back and told them to remove my number from their list...Will see how it goes...Their number is (416) 581-1236Good luck

Hi, i work at Optima Communications, i just felt like i should let everyone know, that in the privacy agreement that you sign with scotia, they say in black and white, that you are giving them permission to relase your information to third party companies that may be in or outside of canada to offer you new products and or services and to collect information, and that if you have a spouse on that account, or whatever it is that you just signed up for, that you are responsible for making sure your spouse has read and understands the terms and conditions, and that there info as well may be released to third party companies. Optima is not cold calling you, we are contacting exsisting customers from reputible companies like Scotia, AMEX, Sears, CAA Etc.... THEY pay us, to call you, on their behalf. THEY supply us with information, but it isn't sensetive information, for example, on scotia, we see the Year of Birth, your name, and your mailling adress, and this is only to send you the welcome package, and we can only send it to you, if you allow us to. we dont ever see banking information, we dont see anything that could be used for identity theft, and if you really have a huge problem with the calls thinking its a scam, you have 2 options, either say do not call me, put me on the do not call ALL list, that takes you off optima scotia and insurance, or call David Huggins (higgins??) He works for Scotia Life, and he can answer all your questions and complaints.you can easily get his number by asking.
