I have been getting random calls on my cell phone recently.  This number just called me a few seconds ago.  I didn't pick up.

Got a call from this no sayin he was calling from Rogers fixing the network in our area then he said he would send me a verification number back. Hung up the phone rang again with a verification no which was from craig's list and said not to disclose this number as it would be scamed, but the person assured me he was callling from Rogers, gave me his id and etcc.. so gave him the verificaiton number and he hung up saying the service is no ok. Called up rogers they said they would investigate this further and since I had not given out any personnel info not to worry. so lets see what happens next

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 have been getting a call from this number for 8 months now...sometimes once a week, sometimes several times a day. They know my name and claim to be someone I went to school with, and then they pursue to ask me some really perverse questions. Its pretty disgusting and I want the calls to stop. Its really creepy. I phoned Bell to ask them if they would block the number, but they said they would'nt!

OK, so first the company providing service for that number is Allstream (waiting for them to call me back). I have already gotten RBC involved due to the fact that they are committing fraud. I have also gotten the RCMP Fraud department involved as well and encourage the rest of you to do the same by calling 1-+1 888-495-8501 or info @ phonebusters.comI also encourage you to involve whatever company they may have claimed to be representing as that is a good way to get something done about it, Bell does not appreciate this sort of false representation and have the money and lawuers to do something about it.If they call you again immediately after the call dial *57 to activate a call trace, then about 2 - 3 days after, call your local police department with the time and date and they will give you all the info you need about that number which you can then use to file a report with them (I was unable to trace my call because I didn't know about all this)I have a theory that this info may have been gained through a contest ballot such as the ones I filled out at a bridal show at the Metro Toronto Convention Center 2 years ago. Plus the RCMP fraud phone department is having a major issue with people getting those calls saying they have won a trip and whatnot. I usually get those from filling out contest ballots... $200 to go to Mexico! Yeah right.P.S. Use this sight as reference when reporting these people to companies and/or police.Hope this helped... just don't give up, that's how they win... people to lazy to do something about it. What they are doing is illegal and wrong.

I got call from this number and missed the call. when i called back it alwasys busy. so i believe it is not a good idea to call back.
