Telemarketer for sure, no one answered when I pushed 1, typical
got call too
got call too .. message said 'you have won travel points or discount or something of $2600 or $2601, press 1 to claim'i just hung up778 is cell prefix for BC someone is using cell phone, probably pre-paid, to do automated dialing. but from people's reports above, nothing happens when you press 1.i suspect it is some scheme to test phone numbers for viability. perhaps they get our numbers from some harvesting method, then test them to see if answered, if press 1 or not, and if answerer was male/female voice, detect accent if any, and to record what people say eg do they swear, or ask who is it etc.its a kind of intelligence gathering scheme. prob can get some interesting demographic, marketing data doing this.it is borderline illegal though as it is calling 'do not call' numbers, and if the users could get their heads together, we might discover that the harvesting method is illegal or unethical too.

got a call from the same number on october 1st at 2:24 pm, and it rang once. i didn't answer it anyway, coz i didn't recognize the number, but i believe it's a scam too...if you don't recognize it, don't answer it.

Got a call on Oct. 1st at 6 pm. Told me I won 2600 travel dollars and to press 1 for claim. I stayed on the line and got disconnected.
I'm on DNC list since last year. According to Canadian telemarketer rules this call is against the rules, regardless of whether you're on DNC list or not. They are not allowed to use pre-recorded messages like that, see here: https://www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca/nrt-ntr-eng#link04. Like some of the posts above mentioned, if you can get the name of the company report them here: https://www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca/plt-cmp-eng
