Had the same call. "Bell Aliant". Worker called me "lovely lady", which was enough to make me hang up regardless of whether it was scam or not. I've probably ignored the number about 6 times since.

1:00 p.m. August 11, 2011, Got a call, one of those typical computer-generated ones where the person on the other end doesn't start talking till the second time you say "Hello", and then you hear lots of other operators talking in the background at a call center.Speaker said he was "James", calling from <mumble mumble>. I said "Please take my number off your calling list." He said "No." I hung up.Really glad to see other comments here, to know that this is a dummy number being used for internet-based calling. That explains a lot. Effing telemarketers and scammers!!

find the phone number address

Ya know, I'm pretty sure it's a skype "outlet" number...So you'll never know who is really going to be there. Family called from skype on this... and so did the guy who burped while he was trying to do a survey with Bert and Ernie.

Also received a call claiming to be Bell Aliant.  I said I was at work and could not talk on my cell phone.  He asked me to call back when I could.  I called back to tell them not to call me again and the message said the number was not in service.

My son, who lives in NFLD, but still has his NS cell #, just asked me to check this phone #. He has had two or three calls and has called it back only to be told it is not a valid phone #
