They also contracted to a company in Victoria who does Government Research on Food Banks, they have someone inside passing any relevant information on. Another tactic is to phone pretending to be Microsoft and telling you that there is a problem with your Windows Software, they then try and convince you to give access to your computer and lock it holding it hostage until you pay them. Don't think they use this one anymore though as it is criminal and usually doesn't work, read a few people got stung. More proof linux is better anyway.

I got called from this unknown number many times...this is part of spam and I called back saying voicemail is full.....wasting my time!

why call me then an answer machine talks no company name or anything shows up just a number

hey nev i know there address u want iot?

They called our home yesterday with what I guess is a new scam - said the had returned mail for "Mike" and for us to call the 877 # and give them a tracking # of ...... - when I called to say there was no Mike here the call was answered by a robot who said Thank you for calling the message centre and then the line was silent - no one ever came on the line.  They just called me back this morning and only asked for Mike and if we knew Mike.  Said we did not and she said thanks and goodbye.  I guess time will tell if we get any more calls.

Read this, actually they are in Mississauga Ontariohttp://www.servicealberta.gov.ab.ca/pdf/under ... _Sept-29-10.pdf

keeps calling asking for another party that we do not know

They are are now using an Edmonton phone # (780) 328-6135 and still using the priority mail lies. They left the 1-+1 877-881-8088 number as well as a tracking number. You would think it would be illegal to pose as the post office's lost and misplaced department.
