phone almost every day, sometimes several times/day.  Hangs up when answering machine picks up.  Hear hang-up signal. No name displayed, no voice left. Answering machine light does not blink as it does with other callers that hang up.

Not a legitimate number. Anything with two overlayed or adjacent Canadian area codes in the prefix for the same number is not issued, per http://cnac.ca/co_codes/co_code_status_map.htm and http://cnac.ca/data/ac905.htm

That means that +1-613-343-xxxx, +1-416-647-xxxx,  +1-905-613-xxxx, +1-905-416-xxxx, +1-905-905-xxxx and the like do not and *cannot* exist. 905 is an area code, not a local exchange.

The caller-ID info is therefore bogus.

No idea, then, why this number just called my mobile 'phone in direct defiance of the do-not-call list.

Folks, buy a Telezapper.  $30 or less on eBay.  It will bump your phone # out of the database, for any calls dialed by a computer "predictive dialer".  Got a call from this number today; our Telezapper beeped & the call immediately disconnected.  It fools these machines into thinking your number is disconnected.  Then, if they're using the right kind of machinery, they should not be able to call you again.  All you have to do is explain to your legitimate callers why your phone beeps when you pick up.

wanted to know about debt. If under or over $5000. wanted my name and number. (Didn't give, stated not interested). Asked why not interested, twice when I stated that. Was going to transfer me to someone else before I said not interested.

A dead line.  I called it back and it is not in service.  A couple minutes before that call i received one from MJR collections  (905) 671-4151)  probably the same company using a different line.
