same thing happened to me except that the message  was  in Russian. My second name is RussianI don't know where they got my info . My phone  # is unlisted and it's a company phone. I could  tell that the person who left a message had a really good Russian, but also  I could tell he was not native Russian.This slight accent can be detected only by native speaker. Which is I am. So those telemarketers when to extent to find a solicitors with the knowledge of foreign languages. LOL I am not picking up. I need to find out how to block certain  numbers.

I'm actually an employee of Malatest. We're a legit survey company with government contracts and many laws to follow to protect people. We get our numbers from many places, sometimes from the client who we're contracted by and sometimes from listed numbers. Everything we do is legitimate and legal! As a surveyor, we're desperate on our end to get completes. A tip from an inside, if you're not interested and don't want to participate simply answer the phone, wait until we are done our little 30 second introduction and politely say "I'm sorry i am not interested" and we will never call you back! I'm not sure if anyone will take me serious, but it's true, try it! As for foodbook, its a survey for the Public Health Agency of Canada. We ask about foods you've eaten, animals you've been in contact with and water you drank. Also, try and be kind, most of us are hard working students trying our best to do our jobs while also making you guys happy and just trying to make money for university. Don't yell at us that it's supper time, supper time literally varies from 4pm-8pm when we call people, we can't read your minds. If you explain to the person on the phone, they will listen.

I have Bell Canada's "Ident-a-call" on my home phone line, it gives you a 2nd number that rings on your primary line, but with a different ring pattern ("first" line gives normal ring, "2nd" line gives "ring-ring" like the British).  I let my "published" or first line be my fax machine, and the 2nd line be my voice number, keeps lots of telemarketers a bay :-)  Also lets you have a "fax line" and a "voice line" without having to pay for 2 phone lines, with the benefit that your voice line is unlisted (at no additional cost) and when you call out, the "first" number is the one that shows, so if companies use the line "you called us, you're an existing customer so we're exempt from Do Not Call lists" it doesn't interrupt your dinner :-)

This number just called in on my first (fax) number.

Callers from this number do not leave messages, hang up when phone answered, can not be reached by calling 1 (613) 688-5051. When phoning back to this number:Calling direct, the message is "this number is out of service.: The number can not be reached by dialing 0-(613) 688-5051. Operator indicates the number could be a call center or other marketing service which is only equiped for outbound calls. Also telephone booth service phones can not be reached by calling them back.

A man called from (613) 688-6051 and said he was from Health Canada doing a survey on chronic diseases.

Health Canada doing research on eating out. They left a message on my machine telling me to call back and gave me a case number. Called again today since I didn't return call yesterday. No time fr surveys. I'm blocking them.
