Received a call from this number today. It shows up at "BC Pub Sectors" on caller display. I normally don't answer calls with different area codes but as this was showed up with an actual name I figured why the heck not? When I answered a lady asked if "last name" was there. I asked her to repeat herself and she simply asked once again for someone in the household by our last name. Not "Mr. Lastname" or "Mrs. Lastname". Just simply: "Is "Lastname" there?" And she continued on to explain what she was calling for. I could not understand a word. She spoke too quickly and with an accent too thick for me to understand. Eventually I was put on hold with some interesting classical music. Having no idea what it was about I hung up. Reading these comments I'm glad I didn't stay on the line.

They called our business many time asking for exchange in services, so we give them free services and they put an add in the lawyers magazine that is worth more than the service we will give them ( just to make it so attractive) i searched to find they are scam, DO NOT RESPOND TO " BC Pub Sectors" or phone # (604) 482-3100 THEY ARE SCAM.

For several years I've given $ to this charity that uses the donations to purchase books for sick/injured...(hospitalized??) children; but I'm not so sure it's as 'legit' as I'd like to think. A word of warning to those of you who don't want to commit to their 'cause' for the long term; they'll call you every year for as long as you use the phone number at which they reach you. I hope that I'm wrong, and that kids DO benefit from this becauseI've been giving ~ $45 per year for close to ten years.

A vancouver bc based telemarketer looking for money for children's books.    Supposedly a charity.

I just got a call from this company as well. A woman called and asked to talk to (last name). I said that they weren't in right now, she asked when she could call back. I asked who was calling, and she said her name was Alisha, and when she could call back. I asked for the name of the company, and she repeated that her name was Alisha and asked when she could call back. I said, "Ummm...next week?" and she responded with "Next week...okay." and then hung up. It was really weird and I hope I answer the phone the next time she call back, knowing what I now know.
