Just received a call from this number and yes no one on the other side....Can we have our service providers block/ filter this number from their system?

Well folks it seems that we have a number that the criminal element can use from another country. They will call you between 2-6am for they are in Nigeria. They can be any of the illegal activity gangs that are there. I wish that TELUS or ROGERS or any of the other number providers just cut them off when you get 3 complaints, you know three strikes you're out of here. But then they, the providers , do not look at it that way for them it is income and one hell of disruption in our day's activities or sleep. If you do get a voice it is from a landline that is not from this country but from one that has very poor infrastructure like Nigeria. And they may be on their cells but the connection is a little better but not that good that you can hear them clearly.Like the other callers I am wondering why the authorities in Canada are not doing anything about this. I k  ow that we are not a majority of the populous voters but we are citizen of a country that respects the privacy from these person unknow or known to us.The reason I knwo about this number I set up a sting to find out legalities that we are not looking at and our own government is just not  doing their job in protecting us from these crooks, scamers, what ever, whom ever they are we are the prey, the victims that have to pay the price and some have and will be going to jail because of these people.So please contact your Federal government representative and put a bee in their bonnet and keep at it for it is the only way that we can get results in Canada. If they do not do their job then vote them out and let them be unemployed like the rest of us.

When my parents called me from their computer (Skype), it redirected through this number...

FYI ...I had received five calls from a telemarketer in the last week informing me that my number had been randomly selected for a free cell phone from Bell and Solo Mobility.  I advised the caller each time that my number was on the do not call list, but they did not understand that.  (FYI, I have never done business with either Bell or Solo.)On the 5th call, I was quite firm in my words about having my number removed and then hung up.  In less than a minute, I received a 6th call, this time from (780) 424-5841.  The man was upset with me for the call I had just received.  He identified himself as Alex Harrison from Bell and Solo Mobile and said he was calling from North York, Ontario.  I repeatedly told him my number was on the national do not call list and he was to immediately stop calling me.  He suggested I call Bell at +1 800-627-0123 if I had a problem with him (it didn't seem to register that I was on the national do not call list).BTW, an internet check of that number shows it is not available to Alberta - not even sure who it is.FYI, Bell's customer care number is +1 800-667-0123.  I called Bell to notify them about how this person conducted business for Bell, if he is even acting on behalf of Bell.  They have no record of an Alex Harrison and nor is the Alberta-based number registered with Bell nor is there any free cell phone promotion of the kind the telemarketers claimed.

I got this phone number just now, but what's strange is that the phone did not ring actually, but rather I got a message (I have this option) about the missed call with this number.

Got a call from this number, but when I called this number, the provider's auto message says this number is not in used.  How is this possible?
