I have received a bunch of calls from this number. I just got back from vacation in Australia, I had my call on an international text plan so I could keep in touch with work. I had 18 calls from them, each voicemail notification cost $2.85. An extra $51.30 on my f'n bill... I'd love to find an address for these turds...

Just got a call from this number and googled it right away and found this. When I call it back it says "6uc2 the number you called is not in service"

Gets pretty bad when you start thinking a political career just to abolish call centres and outlaw autodialers

I get a call from them every freakin day....I guess they're getting paid to do this and it's where they get their mula to pay their bills. But freak!!! Give us a break.....

The police use this tactic to attempt to verify voice data and its origin/identity of a particular cell or landline user.

Yep, I got a call, did not answer and they left a 'blank' message. ...annoying!

Cell in BC, call from Alberta. Did not answer.

I wish there was some way to forward calls from these numbers to other known scammers and create a feedback loop...

Oh boy... Expedia wanted to give me a prize! Gave them my (fake) credit card number... 1234 5678 9101 1213 ex 14/15 ... the girl ran it a few times before she realized I was screwing with her.

I just got a missed call from this number too!!! I was trying to ring the number back just so if ever it my be important or my relatives in the Philippines! I ask my husband 1st if what number is this is it landline or Cp number.. then he sent me this link!! now I know!!!! and read some of the complaints here, that this number charge??! geeez! I ring them back 2 times!! should find who's running this number! cos its going to be annoying if they try calling you back again!

Got a call and didn't answer ( I never answer #'s I don't recognize)..this is the 3rd time. I wish they would just f-off!

just got a call said i could receive 2000 expedia dollars... the offer was great - vacation in mexico - karisma hotel... but when i tried to call the hotel to verify and then the marketing department and everywhere else I could not seem to confirm if it was legit... anyways, obviously it's a scam if it comes from this same number as promo for rogers etc...

re annoyed in Vancouver...
They use an auto-dialer, so they can hit every number possible.. I once worked for a company that used these (20 yrs ago) the machine will dial the area code and first 5-6 numbers, and a person dials the last... this way they can be sure to call everyone that has a phone REGARDLESS of DNC Lists ;)

They called my husband yesterday and now today they called me and I answered and it was a recording that said " you have been chosen to receive 2000 Expedia dollars press 1to claim" then I hung up.

Same call but am a Telus subscriber ?

my ph # has not been given out to ANYONE yet I got a call from this f*cker!

got a call from this number says not in use thanks crtc

How annoying...as if people aren't busy enough. Hopefully what goes around comes around and the nuisance callers find being outed on the net annoying :)

Hi everyone YES they are scammers!

I am with Bell and I got this call, thinking it was my family in Calgary I answered.

"dear valued bell customer bla bla free gift bla bla press 1"

So I thought what the hey and pressed 1, a man with a strong spanish accent answered and I couldnt understand him (sounded like he was in a casino). He transferred me to someone else, then this guy asked who he was speaking to... I asked why am I talking to you? he said if I could have a minute of your time I would like to go over your free trip, or whatever, then you can decide... I said no I'll decide now he says okay then I hung up...

I'll be checking over my next cell bill carefully.

As to where they got my number from? I had just ordered some items from www.ctrlgames.com who are based in China and your phone number is required for your shipping info... hmmm

Beware of “too good to be true offers”

Ottawa, January 10, 2012 – The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) today issued a Consumer Alert on debt reduction companies.

This process is often called “debt reduction,” “debt settlement,” “debt relief” or “debt negotiation.”

Consumers who are looking for information on dealing with their debt will find tips on getting out of debt on FCAC's website at fcac.gc.ca
