Get several calls from these people asking if I want a cash advance.  They want your bank account and routing number.  Will believe anything you say! Have fun with them.

here's a weird one. i got a call from this number this morning while i was still asleep. there was a message when, so before i check the message i look to see what number is on my call display. it's (416) 555-7777. i don't recognize it, so i google it, and find this page. so i'm thinking, the message is going to be some indian guy trying to scam me--- it wasn't---- it was my mom....?????

I am on the do not call list and I keep getting a call from the number.  It is on my cell phone which is a private number and I do not give it out to anyone so I have no idea how they got my number.  When I answer it there is no one there.

My employer has been receiving dozens of calls almost daily from this number. My staff is being constanly harrassed by different callers daily. My employee's are reporting they fear for their safety. Each time they call, we request to be placed on the do-not-call-register to no avail. Do not accept these calls. Always fight terrorism anyway you can!

This is a scam. Do not give any information. Just tell the nice Indian, Pakistanny or whatever or wherever they're from that we love the cow meat they are sending over! Makes great hamburgers!!

I am from Toronto, Ontario, Canada which is actually the city where the area code is 416. However, as a long time resident of Toronto I know that 555 is NOT A LEGITIMATE 2nd 3 digits! This is spam! For sure! Let me tell you this: When a commercial is made for air/posting around here and they need a fake number they use 416-555-xxxx as the number because NOBODY'S SECOND 3 DIGITS IS 555. So no one will get a spammer call.

HOWEVER, this means that this caller is somehow displaying (416) 555-7777 as his/her caller ID while calling from a different number.

Furthermore, I saw the 647 number posted above. 647 is the Greater Toronto cell phone area code. So that may be a legitimate number. However, it may not necessarily be the number of the caller who was spamming you.

I am dissapointed that some retard is giving a bad rap to the 416 :(
