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.

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.

I got a call from this number but it's from my relative in L.A. This is just a local connecting number for those using Long Distance phone cards or services, I suppose?

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

got a call from this number today. didn't pick up, later when i called back, it didn't go through and have busy signals..... wondering what this caller wants.

this number doesnt belong to one person. it seems to belong to a company routing phones between canada/usa
