A long-winded recorded message.  I left the phone on the desk while I worked.  After about 10 mins. I picked it up they were just winding down, asking if I would write my congressman, etc. about health care.  Seemed to be AARP or AARP affiliated.

We have received mult. calls from phone #(613) 216-2172. When my husband picks up there is dead silence on the other end. We are listed on the do not call list. This is becoming very annoying. Who ever is doing this...oviously has too much time on their hands.  If they would only redirect this negitive energy to positive energy.... this crazy world we live in would be a much better one!

DIDN'T LEAVE A MESSAGE.i CALLED BACKED AND IT SAID THE VOICE MAIL WAS FULL.wILL NOT CALL OR ANSWER ANYMORE

Got a call from them about 12:30PM today. Did not pick up and they left no voice mail. I went to the FCC site and filed a complaint: http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm

called me 3 times today.    caller id' the number.   i don't answer any calls that i don't know who they are.

I get calls from this number 3 different times a day, every day. I finally decided to answer and it was a 60 second recorded messages stating that interest rates on my credit cards are set to increase tomorrow and if I want to lock in a low interest rate, I need to speak to customer service. So I did, I pressed 6 to find out who it was that was calling and to get more general info as to what type of scam they are trying to run. After pressing 6, it connected me to a live "Card Services" agent who asked which cards I would like to lock in low interest rates and the card numbers. My first and only question was "which bank are you calling from?" The guy paused for about 7-10 seconds (I could still hear his breathing and other background noise), and then hung up on me.

Short of having the FBI trace calls connecting to my number, I doubt reporting a complaint with the FTC will do anything since most likely, the (613) 216-2172 number is faked using some sort of Spoofing (see spoofcard.com). The best thing I can think of to do is have everyone ANSWER the call and have everyone connect to the Card Services Agent and then hang up. If no one answers and connects to the service rep, he/she wont be bothered. BUT if EVERYONE connected the call WE would then be the ones WASTING these a-holes time, effort and money. The goal is to increase their operating overhead while wasting their time, frustrating them out of business. What would you do if the thousands of potential customers you were seeking suddenly all returned your call, flooding your system with junk leads and phone hang-ups? Think about it -- it makes total sense.
