Ugh. I just got the same call as Margaret in Winnipeg. It seemed harmless to me - questions about pets, recycling, own your home...I was rude to him the whole time, but I played along with his questions. I can't wait to see if I win the daily prize...NOT.

I just got a call from a blocked number. The caller (female) said she was with "SPT" conducting an environmental survey.I asked her what SPT stands for and she said it doesn't stand for anything.I asked her what kind of work they do and she said they conduct enviormental studies for Canadian companies.I asked her if she could give me some examples of companies that they work with and she replied, "No I can't, because we don't have any regular clients."I asked her where their headquarters were located and she said "Manila."I asked her if they have any locations in Canada and she said "no."I asked her if they do any work outside of Canada and she said "no." (Aside: yet they have no locations in Canada?)I asked her what the address of their location in Manila was, and she said, "It's in Manila, sir."I asked her if they have a website and she said "just search for SPT." I asked her if they had a URL and she said, "to be honest, sir, we do not."Honestly would have been appreciated from the start, not only after she was pressed for answers. Anyways, definite scam.

just got a call from an unknown number asking the same questions, any smokers, any allergies, so i recycle, do i own or rent, what do i do for a living, what does my husband do for a living ect..... hung up i was feeling uncomfortable about the personal nature of the questions.

SPT Research -- or whoever they are -- called me several times between yesterday and today. They're aggressive and won't take NO for an answer. They'll hang up and call you right back. I'm annoyed and want to know how to stop these people. Apparently, when it comes to telemarketers, the CRTC's responsibilities end at our borders.

Here's the name of the Operations Manager for SPT: Dora Abuaf. Send a message to her facebook account here:  http://www.facebook.com/dora.abuaf

I got the same call, and was seriously annoyed!!  He said it was for an environmental survey for my city.  When he asked me all these random questions pissed and asked to speak to a supervisor and of coarse there wasn't one to talk to. I asked for the number to the office and the number he gave me was (403) 648-2643 I asked him where he was calling from and he said the Phillipenes.(sp?).....lol  I told them under no circumstances were they to contact me with a "prize" that I may win, which I obviously know it's just going to be to sell me stuff.  Don't waste your time on the "survey"
