I just got the same phone call and was totally caught off guard. I was asked the same type of questions pertaining to whether I recycle, what line of work I was in,whether it was fulltime or part time, how long I have lived at my residence and what my first name was. I asked where the woman on the other end of the phone was from and she said that she was from the Philipines. I asked what her number was and the name of the company.She said that it was (403) 648-2643 and that she was calling on behalf of a local Hmailton Independent Consumer Trends Survey. She said that they would be calling back tomorrow for my address and a chance to win a prize. I told her not to bother and not call again once I finally caught on to this skam. I called my local phone provider and they told me that if I were to receive the call again to press *57 on my phone and immediatley call the police so that this number could be traced. I called the 403-648-2643 number back and a woman answered saying she was from the Philipines but that she had a daughter in Australia. Ironically,my credit cards had been recently compromised and there was a charge on one of them for a plane ticket to Sidney, Australia. I have called the police and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre with reference to this situation.

Got a call Saturday night - I demanded that the caller identify herself by ID number and she refused. Got angry when I persisted and eventually hung up on me! Before hanging up she had a man come on the call. My advice is take control of the conversation and: 1. clearly state to them that the conversation is being recorded and when they acknowledge that then 2. state that you are registered with the government on the Do Not Call List and that the recording will be forwarded to the government along with their ID/name. Be persistent about asking for their ID and tell them repeatedly that you want to be taken off their call list and eventually they will hang up on you

Just got the same call over two nights. Before giving any info I asked for their number and Clarice said I was entered into a draw on september 17 for $500 for any store!!!! They also said I won either a trip for two or a Slapchop. I said I would take the slapchop and she said that's great ... Its what most people take!!!! Anyways I got their number and she said her company was Meditech group which was weird cuz the survey yesterday was about recycling. Anyways I have no intention of calling back but thought I would still report it

Had a survey questionnaire asking about clean air quality. The caller (female) said she was calling from the Phillipines. She represented the SPT Research Company for air qualiaty. The number to call back was (403) 648-2643. She said I may have won something for answering the questions and will notify me later. When I called the number somebody answered who couldn't peak English and hung up on me. I called twice. Same thing happened. I answered her questions with vague answers. She had no idea what the company's full name stood for - SPT when I asked her.
How do I report this scam?
