Hah, this call called me today around 5-7pm.Picked up, no response. So I just sat, left my phone on, munched on my food, let the caller hear my munching, I even sang and annoyed (IF there is anyone listening) out loud.Then I heard a "hang up" sound.Geez, reading the earlier comments. I see "threats" being mentioned from this number. Now I'm quite "curious" in a way.

I've just started being bombarded with nuisance calls in the last week, including this no. They all started right after I place a few ads on Craigslist. When I did a quick search of one of the numbers, up came a Craigslist ad listed by someone selling something from a basement suite in North Vancouver. I have never picked up, but it's really annoying. Yesterday I received three calls, back-to-back. As it happens, I just sprained my foot, so hobbled to the phone three times. This number (604) 628-2598) was call no. 3. A minute before that was a "blocked" call and a minute before that was (604) 678-9476 (a cursory search revealed that the latter no. was known to RCMP and could be reported to RCMP Phone Busters at 1-+1 888-495-8501), which I promptly did. Reason would dictate that all three calls came from the same person/people.The RCMP told me to just not pick up. Today I blocked (604) 628-2598, but I'm sure they'll keep calling from the "blocked" and other numbers. I have better things to do with my life than dodge calls from scam artists, add to my "blocked" list, and sit around on hold for half an hour waiting for RCMP Phone Busters. There needs to be more energy and funds directed to protecting the public and maybe a little less to furthering technology right now. It's intrusive, violating and stressful.

This is Harris Black (well-known scammer and con-artist .http://www.harrisblackwatch.com/Running one more of his SCAMS

I just got a call from this, as soon as I answered, the person hung up. Called me at 4:36PM on July 4, 2008. Tried calling back and it gives me a dead signal.

Have been getting calls from this number and they dont answer when you pick up.All hours of the night.
