(604) 855-7584  was screening my calls and this number appeared.  checked on here and see it's not anyone i know!  is it a scammer???

If someone from British Columbia calls you from Skype it will show up as this number sometimes.

calls everyday. left a message one time, saying they are from some country in africa, and they want to send me some money.. scams! they even send me text messages wanted to be my friend.. soo annoying! i've seen these type of scams from dateline!

I also have received calls from this number, but in two different places. First, I get it on my cell phone. I don't answer, and sometimes I get a voicemail afterwards that is nothing but static.

Second, at work, when someone from our head office calls us, their actual phone number is disguised for some reason, and comes up as this number on our internal phone display.

I suspect that the number itself, (604) 855-7584, is a default cover-up number when someone is on caller id blocking.

This is like Vancouver's default number when they can't figure out the caller ID. It sometimes also appears to be when I receive international calls.

We get calls from this number sometimes as frequently as 5 times a week.  Most of the time there is no answer.  A few times we have spoken to someone who says they are from the cancer society or the firemen's association selling tickets for a magic show.  When we get a person we asked to be taken off their call list.  
We've decided to answer and then hang up as soon as it connects.  Feels rude but this is a real nuisance we are trying to discourage.
