What is unfortunate with Canada and their so called "Do Not Call List" Apparently it has done the opposite. Somebody or somehow got these registered numbers and after giving your number to the government for private agencies to stop calling you. You get your number sold to scam artists to call you whenever they want and both you as if you have nothing better to do then to talk to some indian guy trying to sell you something.

It is pathetic.

Some Mid Eastern Indian sounding male whom I could barely understand his English started to tell me something about lowering my interest rate. I cut him off and hung up.

weird, I have unlisted numbers both home and cell, and only my family knows my cell phone number yet I got a call from this number on my home phone and I didnt answer, then immediately afterwards they called my cell phone. The only thing I can think is that I wrote to a family member today on facebook and left both my phone numbers in their private mailbox. I cannot think of any other way for them to have known my number and apparantly this is a problem with fb hacking. I think it is possible that it is one of those free switching networks so that number comes up for others if being used (free long distance numbers usually). Just saying, since I used to work for Bell and we saw that alot.

i get this call too. weekdays, weekends, all the time.

Got a call about it from some holiday place or something.
Person spoke really broken english (Indian accent) and said I filled out a form to win a prize in zellers or walmart or somewhere - except i dont shop there nor do i fill out forms like that.  said he has my address, which is right, except he said i live in north york, which is what the postal office says, i always say toronto.
told him i didnt fill anything out since he called and ask for Mr. or Mrs... and there is no Mrs. so couldnt have been me. Asked not to be called again and if I do it goes to the CRTC as i am registered with teh do not call list. He abruptly stopped talking and i hung up.
