They are not a collection agency! Look at other sites on Google to read about the assortment of comments on this number. Whoever is using this number is using a wide variety of (often aggressive) tactics to fish for any kind of personal identifying information. They seem to resort to all kinds of tactics to grab people's attention and information. I think it's for identity theft purposes. We have receive calls from this number for a few years. The other day I receive a call from them on my cell phone.

got many calls from this f.... number  please stop dont know you ..

This number appears on our call display whenever anyone from the US calls us.  It seems that Telus caller i.d. isn't capable of letting us know what the actual number is....so it displays this one.

An addendum to my above posting for others to heed just in case.
Here is how the ad reads as from the posting on Craigslist in Vancouver BC. I have flagged the posting as spam and suppose that it will be removed soon enough, but I suspect it'll pop up again somewhere as scammers tend to be rather tenacious...

This is a Vancouver Primus LD port fowarding number....normally VOIP

(604) 895-0009, was a number from a person who claims to be Andreas Makiewicz. They have been calling me and i have been in contact with them because i answered an ad for renting a house in the internet. At first he was calling with an UNKNOWN ID then he instructed me together with his claimed wife by the name MARIA MAKIEWICZ to send money to get the key to the house which i did and now they said they need more money before i could get the key. I believe they are fraud and very much greedy for money. Im somehow sorry for myself for falling into their trap but in the lighter side at least i could tell others about this number so that they would not fall into the same fate i had with these people.
