I've just started being bombarded with nuisance calls in the last week, including this no. They all started right after I place a few ads on Craigslist. When I did a quick search of one of the numbers, up came a Craigslist ad listed by someone selling something from a basement suite in North Vancouver. I have never picked up, but it's really annoying. Yesterday I received three calls, back-to-back. As it happens, I just sprained my foot, so hobbled to the phone three times. This number (604) 628-2598) was call no. 3. A minute before that was a "blocked" call and a minute before that was (604) 678-9476 (a cursory search revealed that the latter no. was known to RCMP and could be reported to RCMP Phone Busters at 1-+1 888-495-8501), which I promptly did. Reason would dictate that all three calls came from the same person/people.The RCMP told me to just not pick up. Today I blocked (604) 628-2598, but I'm sure they'll keep calling from the "blocked" and other numbers. I have better things to do with my life than dodge calls from scam artists, add to my "blocked" list, and sit around on hold for half an hour waiting for RCMP Phone Busters. There needs to be more energy and funds directed to protecting the public and maybe a little less to furthering technology right now. It's intrusive, violating and stressful.

(604) 628-2598 called twice at six am.  Fax ring, but no fax received.  Suspect fax telemarketing.

I got a call from this number but it's from my relative in L.A. This is just a local connecting number for those using Long Distance phone cards or services, I suppose?

I got a call from this no. and answered, but no reply.  I called back a few times, the line was busy all the time.  Please be alert.

Hah, this call called me today around 5-7pm.

Picked up, no response. So I just sat, left my phone on, munched on my food, let the caller hear my munching, I even sang and annoyed (IF there is anyone listening) out loud.

Then I heard a "hang up" sound.

Geez, reading the earlier comments. I see "threats" being mentioned from this number. Now I'm quite "curious" in a way.

i got a call (im from surrey bc). picked up, and his dam answering machine takes over...wtf??? this pyscho needs to get lynched
