I am visiting Edmonton from American.  Last night was my first night here, and I got a call in the middle of the night on my American cell phone from (780) 424-5841.  I thought it was very strange that I got a call from an Edmonton number, since nobody from Edmonton knows that I am here except for the friend that I am staying with.  My cell phone is from Verizon Wireless, and my area code is 812, which is Indiana.  I never received any unknown calls from Canada when in the US.  

I find it very disturbing after reading these other complaints about this number, since it seems to indicate that the person who originated this call must have had knowledge that this cell phone was in Edmonton.

I did not answer the phone since I was sleeping.

Weird. This number tried calling me on my cell last night at 8:51pm. I didn't noticed anyone calling me until midnight so I didn't bother calling back, until this afternoon. When I tried calling back, it said the number was out of service. Just last week I got another weird call on my cell while I was at work. That number is a spammy number ( did the search on here) and that number is 780- 702-0874). When I tried calling back that one, it said that this number could not dial out because it is an answering machine(?!) Weird. But anyway, both the spam numbers area codes are from Edmonton and surrounding area ( including some of St. Albert, Sherwood Park & Stratcona).

We keep getting calls from (780) 424-5841, and it shows as a private number...only a fax signal comes on though.  When called back, Telus recording says the number is not in use.  Wish that were true.
