Received a call from this # this morning. No Caller Id was on the display only the number. When I answered the women on the line asked if she was talking to "and she referenced the name on a bank account". I asked who she was and why she was calling she said she was doing a survey for the RBC. Told her never to call again and hung up. Contacted RBC to report and they indicated that there should be no survey calls on their behalf unless its to follow-up on something related to the account. Just a heads up this is probably a scam how they got the account name (it's very unique) is beyond me.

I too received a call from this number (416) 233-0047. The person was just breathing through the phone which sounded very scary and I said “hello!” two times and I hang up. I went online to reverse the number to see who it is; I see that a lot of other people also have received strange phone call from this number.

The best thing to do is to call the police and report his/her sorry ass. Which I did, I wrote an email and report it through phone. If everyone here to do what I did, I am sure he will put back in jail where he belongs.

I'd researched this number online to see if was a telemarketing call....Glad I did!They keep calling my cell phone. And they never leave a message when I don't answer.

It is from Market Probe.

The guy responsible for all the telemarketers is:
Senior Vice President, Research and Operations: Mr. Tim McCutcheon, M. A. home address and phone: (416) 439-3872. 733 Scarborough Golf Club Rd. Toronto
He is also on Linketh

This #(416) 233-0047 called my home and cell number in the past 3 weeks, usually later in the day early evening & leaves no message.  Finally, tried calling this number back and line was busy for 1 hr., then finally phone ringing, but no answer.  I did also answer the phone during this 3 week period & it was an RBC caller, but I was in a hurry and quickly they said they would call back another time; not the typical sounding RBC representative.  I'll ask for her # next time; could be connected; not sure.  Th

I keep getting calls from this number too!  I live in Victoria, BC.  I haven't answered yet, but after reading this I'm going to answer and give the person on the other end an ear-full.

Constantly calling -- won't take no for an answer!

Just got a call from them, and they couldn't hear me.  They hung up.

(416) 233-0047 called last evening (November 24, 2009) around 6:15 p.m. - used my first name. It was disturbing. They didn't identify who they were, why there were calling or how to get back in touch with them. Used *69 to get the number - we don't have caller ID (the charge will appear on my phone bill). 1st call back - line busy, next 2 call backs no answer! We're on the national "do not call list" - guess this company/person doesn't subscribe to it!

Got a call from this scam number and was asked if I had been to my RBC branch recently. I told them I've never had an RBC account and they immediately hung up. I tried calling back but it's always busy.
