I have been getting these calls...they tend to make a person a little paranoid...but kudos to you Jack for all of your research.  I live in Nova Scotia, and read all of your response.  I work at a law firm and everybody should know that law offices do not try to reach their clients with a really lame automated service, asking you to call them back.  Same is true about how Jack spoke of receiving important legal documents, a Statement of Claim is served on people by law firms usually through a process server.  These idiots need to get a life and stop trying to scam people.  I almost got sucked in by another scam (one to lower your credit card interest) and felt like a complete idiot...so now I'm really ticked off at all of the annoying calls, I want to get an airhorn to blast in the phone, if it was a real person calling me, I'd be all set!

they called me too this morning early at 9am, asking for my birthdate to confirm and whether I recieved a brown envelope in the mail. Whether or not i said no. I also have 1-+1 866-988-0885 call me everyday as well as 'unknown numbers' and 'private numbers'. I do owe a cable company just under $1000, and they outsource their deliquent customers after a while. This allows anyone else to set up shop and say they are collecting on their behalf. This has got to stop. I wonder if they will call me on Christmas too?

Upon seeing this other post, I will be reporting them too.
"My mother just got ANOTHER call from these people.  I was livid and called the law firm and gave them s**t.  I have also called CRTC - DO NOT CALL LIST (her number was registered) and reported them 1-+1 866-580-3625,then called PHONEBUSTERS - THEY DEAL WITH FRAUDULENT PHONE CALLS 1-+1 888-495-8501 and will be calling THE LAW SOCIETY OF UPPER CANADA 1-+1 800-668-7380 shortly to report them. PLEASE - anyone who gets calls from these morons report them to ALL 3 instituions. Unfortunately, they have probably ripped off countless people and it needs to stop."

Thanks for the advice

they call for overdue bills on behalf of cogeco

This may sound a litle odd but does anyone else dal with the Royal Bank? The reason I ask is tat my girlsfriend started receiving these calls which didn't make sense but what madeeve less sense is that I started receiving these cals as well but at her house, we hadn't moved in together yet, I had my own house. The only thing that tied me to her adress and phone number is a bank account we opened jointly a few weeks before.
