I called them back and the company is NASS Canada . . . . the jerk on the other end of the phone could only say that they do " various things " and would not give further information without knowing the name of the resident.When I repeatedly asked why he could not tell me he said " don't waste anymore of my time time " and hung up - what a jack***.How can we stop this type of annoyance ?

I have just received # 9 of these stupid messages...when is someone going to be able to make these stop.  I did answered two calls the other day and one was trying to sell me a platinum card and the other(i'm not too sure)...would let me say that i'm not interested...he kept saying that i would be foolish to pass this up. I had to hang up on him.

the number in the message is +1 866-803-6687....very urgent business matter that you must return....etc.

***UPDATE***I did a search on this site for the variations of the number and I've found an entry stating that it might be CANADA STUDENT LOAN calling.  I checked with the Canada student loan and they said that the calls are not coming from them.***UPDATE***

I'm from NB Canada.  I've been receiving recorded phone calls from 1-866 and 1-905 numbers for weeks now.  Just received a call w/ recorded message today saying "Its a very serious matter, it won't go away, call us back at 1-866-something (I didn't hear the rest of it because it stopped)" They never say my name, the reason they're calling and/or the company they're working for.Variation of the number calling for the same reason:+1 866-574-0222+1 866-803-6687+1 866-879-5172(905) 306-6220    thanks in advance
