Got a call from this number yet again. Didn't pick it up and let it go to voicemail - where of course they did not leave a message. Why don't they identify themselves?

Received a call from (613) 667-9148 today.  They originally asked for my husand but since he is at work they talked to me.  I could hardly understand what the woman was asking other then the fact that they wanted money and when I told her no she got right upset.  I have the choice to contribute and as to be asked as to WHY I wouldn't contribute, like seriously.  They just had an election so why the hell do they need $100 contribution?Like the others on this board have said - the call should come as a Conservative party call not just a phone number.  All I was thinking the whole time she was rambling on was this has got to be a scam.

I suggest you buy an airhorn of some description and when you get one of these calls, do whatever you have to do to get in touch with a live person; when they come on the line, blast the airhorn into the phone and hang up.  If this spreads across the continent we will be able to identify the people who work for the companies that make these calls by their hearing loss in one ear.  We can then beat them to death.  

It might also be advisable to invest in hearing aid stock at the same time.

Calls a lot from this number and today I finally answered and he said Alma I said yes.  Asked me if I lived in Canada I said no and hung up.

If you get a call from this number is because you or someone at your house is or has been a member or donator for either the Conservative Party,  PC Party, Canadian Alliance or Reform Party.They don't do random calls. They only call people in their list of current or former members & donators.And if everyone in your house says they're not members, well someone's lying =)Also, the Canadian Do Not Call List does not apply to political parties and charitable organisations, so you have to tell them to remove you from their list and never call you again.

I contacted the conservative party directly, concerning this number and found out that it is a company the have outsourced to for fund raising and such They do not list their number because of some lose rules do not require them to since they are not the actual party contacting you but a contractor. Slick eh. I told the very polite person at the conservative party fund raising department that i wanted my name and number removed from their lists that they give to the contractors and any person in my house hold, they did so without question and were very polite about it. I then told them to take a look at this site and see what this contractor is doing and how they are really making people angry and maybe they should realize that this contractor is not helping but hindering their goals for fund raising. Don't know if they will but they  thanked me for the feed back and said they would investigate. i would suggest to anyone else to try the same route to get of their list and let them know the are winning any votes or donations with this contractor.hope it works out .
