Have received numerous calls from this number. Last week my wife told themto stop calling us as we were not interested. We then received two phonecalls at 4:20 and 4:20 a.m. on Saturday, March 21st with them replaying mywife telling them not to call us. This number needs to be investigated andshut down by the Canadian Government.

Received several calls from Ontario, CA (613) 216-2172 with no message. Called back and no company name was given, so I hung up. Now I'm charged for two international calls to Ontario, Canada, which totaled over $6 with all the taxes and carrier cost recovery fee.
It's a scam.

If they are indeed based in Canada -- filing a complaint with the FCC or FTC won't matter, will it?? The U.S. agencies would have absolutely no jurisdiction. I am very annoyed with these calls, as well.

When the phone rang, at 7:45 PM EDT today, I got a recorded message telling me about President Obama's mortgage assistance plan, and telling me if I wanted and was eligible for Federal Assistance, press "1"
The woman who answered the phone had a faint Indian (or similar) accent. She immediately started into her copy on "would you like to save money on your mortgage?" When I asked why the US Federal Government would be using a phone number in Ontario CA, she said "I get that a lot. Why do you say that? I am in Sunny Southern California!" I told her that Caller ID had given her away.
I then asked which agency she represented. She said it was "National Mortgage" but was not affiliated with the US Government. I asked "so this is a private firm?" "Yes, sir, it is." I then informed her I am on the National Do Not Call list and did not want to be... well, called again, but at that point, she said "Have a nice day sir" and hung up on me.
They call again, I will try to get an address. Then my lawyer will be talking to them. He's good. And a violation of the DNC is a fine of up to $1000 per call, I do believe...

File a complaint with the FCC Online here: http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm
These people should be shut down because they use automated machines and do not allow you to tell them to stop. Their mailbox is "full."

Received a call while driving and there was no one on the other end. The Caller ID indicates that the origination is in Canada. I do know that a lot of fraud is now coming out of Canada, targeting people here in the US. The most often used is by mail and includes a large check that is drawn under a legitimate company name and a phone number in Canada to call to inquire how to get the money... which involves sending money to them for "taxes" on the "winnings"...Though I have tried to "Call Block" this number through ATT, the service will not allow me to do so!
