Received a call from this number today on my cell phone. The mysterious man with the Indian accent told me he was calling from Telus and that my account had been selected to win a free phone. When I asked him for a return phone number so that I could verify he was calling from Telus, he repeated that I'd won a phone. I asked him if he understood what I said. And repeated that I needed some verification that he was from Telus and that this was not a fraudulent call. He hung up on me. The phone number is not capable of receiving incoming calls. There was a lot of chatter in the background, and it sounded like some kind of call center. Sounds like a huge plan to gain personal information to me...I've contacted Telus to follow up on it. Hopefully they catch this son of a *&()) before he milks some poor individual out of their own hard earned money.

I think this is a long distance number.  Meaning when you call long distance you enter a phone number then the person your trying to call number.  ie like Worldline or VOIP service.  We got a call from Europe with that number last month and then a telemarketer today.

So this "thing" has called me for two weeks straight. It started on February 13th and carried through the entire weekend, day and night. By Monday morning, it stopped. The calls began again on Feb 20th, and haven't stopped since. They are primarily during the evening and night time hours. They were all "private" calls, until somehow they managed to forget to block the number. Has anyone figured how to put a stop to these calls?

this number is for a free long distance service and instead of changing your name to private, it just uses a random no existant caller id which i reality is pretty much a private call with a custom caller id displayed.

so whoever is calling you knows you or got your name from the white pages.

I got a call from these p**sies last night... All i could hear was heavy breathing. I told them that i would tie there tounge to their toes if he kept on calling... I put my phone on a soft pleasant ring because they called for about an hour non-stop!!!

called me today at 2:08pm.  the caller identified herself as monique from montblanc and wanted to speak with someone at our office.  told her he was not available and she asked if he would be back later today, i said no can i help you with something.  she paused and said she would call back later.

lots of background noise and she didn't sound very professional.
