Called today at 11:-00 AM 3-Feb-13, no answer back but could hear breathing like someone overweight and struggling a bit. Scam of some kind -probably pissed because I always say no to robo calls and polls - just way too many these days and too many scams.

I've been having calls from this number as of September 2012. Not impressed.

Called the number back within 5 minutes and received an answering machine claiming that the number is no longer in service. What bull****. Don't pick up. SCAMMERS. 07Sept2012 @ 7PM.

I do not give to the SPCA and I am getting this number on my phone .  Did not answer it.

You are correct. If you call them, it is a message. They will ask if you wish to remove your phone number. You just have to enter you number at that time and (hopefully) will receive no more fundraising calls.

Have also had this number call frequently - found this other site: http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-(604) 248-5257   that shows the same phone number/problem  as on here - note the very last posting by "Cherry" on May 30 2010 where they finally got annoyed and answered it and says it was the SPCA....Anybody donate to SPCA? They are apparently attempting to contact their contributors by phone to save postage - um...maybe try email SPCA folks??

I called the number back and it's some polling company.  The robot said I could remove my number from their list, which I did.  I hope this works.

Keeps calling but hangs up after 2 rings!!! What's up with that?

got a call from this number....east indian lady asking for my 15 yr old son....when I asked her what it was about, she hung up. Little unnerving!
