This is actually a sales call trying to get people to buy Scotiabank insurance .

I don't even deal with Scotia what a freakin' scam

I am getting a bunch of calls from them too. If it is a scam, as it seems to be... it's been going on a while. Maybe I'll pick up next time they call and get to the bottom of this.

Received a couple calls from this number in the past month. Each time I answer there is nothing and then it starts ringing as if I am placing a call. The first time this happened I let it ring a couple times and a girl answered. Every other time I just ignore the calls.

They know both of my phone numbers. They left with a no a word message to both. I have car insurance with scotialife if it is from them, but they are not supposed to know my second no. because I never provided it to them. Very wierd.
