Picked up the phone and no one was there so it was probably a robocall from some telemarketer. We tried the DNC list but it didn't seem to make any difference.

I'm also on the DNC list, but not much good it's doing.

I do get many legit calls from this area code, so i picked it up. Normally I do not answer calls where i don't know the number.

This call today was a low-life telemarketer robocall with a recorded message trying to sell a way to lower interest rates on your credit card. It said "Press 9 to remove from list", which I did and the call ended, but I think all i did was verify for them that my phone number is valid, and the creeps will call again, probably from a different number.

When the revolution comes, telemarketers will be the first to be shot.

Very good post!

DNC listThis number called as a solicitation - a company I do not deal with and I am on the C

Answered the phone and the pause before the (robo called) recorded message told me that it would be some criminal on the other end of the line.....

"This is an important message to all Canadians" ...if you agree to our credit scam, we will suck as much money out of you as we can before passing your name/number on to other criminals who will try to do the same thing.

This is a spoofed number and I suspect they match the area code to whatever region they are scamming today (like ... who picks up the phone anymore when the caller ID shows an out of area phone number, this meaning 99.99% of the time that the call is coming from some bottom feeders?)

I would never have answered the phone had the area code been something other than mine.

This criminal scam is so pervasive .... does anyone really fall for it anymore???

Give it up you bottom feeders and get an education and a real job!

We do not answer call where I don't know the number We can see same tel no often
