Called me today and tried to be all crafty.. "I'm calling from Bell Canada because you have your home phone with us, correct?" Me: No.... "Oh. So are you with Cogeco or Rogers?" Me: Cogeco.... "Oh, so I'm assuming you have their cable and internet packages too?" Me: -Click.-Hate telemarketers who think I'm stupid! lol

A guy with an Indian accent called today, claiming he was from "North York Air Duct Cleaners."  When I told him to take us off the calling list, he said no.  I was annoyed and told him that the law is that if I explicitly tell him to take us off their calling list, he must do so and he simply said "No, we don't have to."  I asked for his name and his supervisor's name, which he would not give me.  He insisted that his name is Margaret.  Very annoying.  I hope there is something I can do if they continue calling.  As other posters have said, the number is  busy when I try to call back.

Same kind of call, only mine was a female with a south asian accent, said she was with Bell. I didn't give her any info & asked her to stop calling. Will see if it stops!

A guy has been calling our household from this number too. He sounds like he could be anywhere from his late teens to his thirties. He seems to have an accent, and he claimed to be calling from a company that does routine home maintenance. He sounded very unprofessional, he was very insistent and pushy, even bordering on rude - not at all like the usual telemarketers.

I do NOT believe these calls are from a legitimate telemarketing company. It's a scam. Asking to be removed from his phone list is not going to work. I did a reverse look-up on this phone number at WhitePages.ca, and found out that it's an unlisted number based in Thornhill. Watch out for this one, and don't give him any of your information!!

Meanwhile, has anyone tried reporting this to the police?

Someone called my number and when i picked up the phone they hung up.

They just called my house and asked to speak with my mother, they had her full name. When i told the man, who had a Spanish accent, that she was not home, he hung up. I believe this is the first time we have been called by this number, but from reading all of the comments, I'm assuming there will be more calls from this number. This is really terrifying, because we have no idea who this person is and how they know my mother's name. I hope the police can deal with this soon because I would hate to have someone fall into their trap and lose everything they have.
