how to stop robo calls? scam calls? debt collector calls? answering the calls and there is no one there! never leave messages! can't call back as #'s are discontinued??????????

This telephone number belongs to:
CBV COLLECTION SERVICES
814 Richards Street. Vancouver, B.C.

CBV is a debt collection agency.  They perform debt collection services for many different companies, including TELUS.

I recently became the latest target of these phone trolls, they called last Friday for the first time and it showed up as "unavailable" on call display, (sneaky buggers!). I let the answering machine take it and a female voice identified herself as Maria and requested that I call her back at 770-338-2288, Extension 15011. She was looking for a Keith Blaine, (there is no Keith living at my place). She wanted me to call back about an "important financial matter" and that was it.  By looking up this number online I see it is a collection agency. This is most interesting as I have no debts no credit cards and owe no money anywhere. Based on what I have read online I personally believe that it is some kind of phishing scam.  If I were any of you I wouldn't give these guys one syllable of information. They somehow got my unlisted number and they're going to learn the hard way that I don't take nuisance calls.  I once endured a flood of calls from a single telemarketing firm over a 5 month period and I outlasted them. In all those instances they got nothing but answering machine, my message even says that telemarketing or unknown callers will be ignored.  CBV can call all they want but they won't ever get through.
