I got a message on my answering machine from this man Denis St-Jacques yesterday and I gave it a try today and I spoke to a Trevor Greenwood who spoke very well in French, although with an accent.  He explained to me about the program and asked me for my home address to send my a how-to-start a business kit with phone numbers from the government and an application with the catch that I had to pay $267.00 today and again in 2 weeks with my credit card.  He gave me a toll free number 1-+1 800-658-9792 extension 212.  As I was thinking about all this, almost giving my credit card number over the phone to a complete stranger, I started reading the messages on this site and I was shocked and told him that I would call later another day.  It scared me to think that I almost got ripped off.  So, it's too good to be true, thanks for the warning.  I got another phone number to call on the first message I got and it's not the same as you guys, I was given this number: (613) 963-0474

J'ai reçu un appel de Denis St-Jacques aujourd'hui (appel enregistré) 21 mai 2008 sur mon répondeur. Il m'invite à l'appeler pour profiter de programmes de subventions mal connus pour les entreprises en démarrages? Des prograsmmes bons pour mon entreprises et ma famille???? J'ai immédiatement eu la puce à l'oreille...Je croyais connaître toutes ces opportunités puisque je suis réellement très alerte aux opportunités gouvernementales en ce moment....j'ai tout compris quand j'ai trouvé ce site internet. Son nom de téléphone est maintenant (613) 963-0473.......et Il parle au nom du 'Centre d'aide au financement d'entreprise'...Faites gaffe SVP....

The b***h is back!  That irritating female voice that was once known as Anna from The Moving Company - phone numbers (416) 657-2693 and (647) 477-8099 now has returned as Sarah representing the Small Home Business Centre located in Ottawa.  The number she gives is (613) 216-9410.  Guess the heat was on them in Toronto from constantly bugging the crap out of people calling them hundreds of times.

Le message était en français. Une publicité supposée du gouvernement du Canada pour aider les petites entreprises. L'homme dit que plusieurs programmes du gouvernement du Canada sont peu connus et il nous invite à appeler "le centre". Le centre de quoi pensez-vous ? Un gros racket !NOW IN ENGLISH : A man called (voice recording)and said that the goverrnement of Canada had numerous programs unknown to small businesses and invite the pepole to call the "Center". The center of what, you think ? CERTAINLY A BIG RACKET. Should we call the police?
