I live in Vancouver and I got a call from this number and did not pick up, I assume its a scammer.

This number is being used as a rental fraud at the moment.
They're pretending to be a missionary in nigeria and asking you to send the damage deposit and then they will have the keys to the appartment sent to you.

Caller called and spoke in my mother tongue, Tamil and said that Telus has received complaints about our phone being used by Telemarketers. My husband asked what is your ID and call back number and he gave his Telus ID as 08 TEL 619 and gave 1 +1 866-585-1111 as a call back number. My husband said that he would call him back and hung up. I did google search on this number and got this thread.
Previously there were calls from a Nebraska or Utah number who would just keep silent whenever we pick up. We stopped picking up calls from unknown numbers . But, this number caught us by surprise.

got a call from this number today, did not say anything, then hung up, called me 5 times today, last time they called, I just did not answer!

Called me on a Saturday evening and left a message which said, "Hey John Fried, I'm fingering my a**hole right now." Disturbing.

I got a call today, I heard a lot of "call centre" noise behind, so I thought it was a telemarketer, their offer was to lower my credit card and mortage interest to 2.5%, I did hear this guy but then he started asking for personal information, I that point I just hung up. Best case is a telemarketer trying to have more valuable lists to sell, worst case there is an identity theft scheme going on...
