204-480-XXXX

Person claims to be Elizabeth Mozer and owns land that she wants to sell. She also is requesting that I send her a listing agreement. This is a very weird scammer. I received the initial request 4/16/24. The person is actually following up with me to list this land.

This person is a scammer. Claims to Own a property wants to sell. It's a throw away Number so this is as of 4/9/24. Will move on to another number . Clais to be Joyce Evans but I know for a fact that is not who it is.

Phony phone line issue

Said I had an outstanding speeding ticket and that my licence was suspended until I paid.

Calls about money being owed. Blocked but still calling with different numbers

Didn't answer. Went to voicemail and started off with "please hold while we connect you to the next available agent." Blah blah blah. Y'all called my phone and it's a voicemail 🤣

This person is from a dating site. Initially asking me if I used Whats App so I am thinking he may be scammer?

I ignored a call from (204) 480-5387 at 2:35 PM on 24 April 2014 because I did not recognize the number. The caller did not leave a voice message and when I called the number back, a recorded message said the number would not receive incoming calls.

I didn't answer

they called me asking if I was interested in a work from home business and then said that I would get other calls

Just got a call from this number. Weird

Collection Agency - They are rude and do not care about the person on the other end of the line.

Commercial Credit Adjusters

Still do not know who this is. Wondering why someone from Canada is calling when I do not know anyone there, have no debts, or business there, and have not visited since 1997.. and the visit was not in the Manitoba Province.

I keep get a call from this number and a woman keeps asking for my husband.. WTH..

This is a scam tele fundraiser for it would seem multiple charities that are questionable themselves. However, in most states they must start their pitch by saying "Hello, my name is (full name of fundraiser registered with the SOS or AG) and I am a paid fundraiser with (full name of fundraising company registered with AG or SOS) and I am calling "on behalf" of (full name of charity registered with AG or SOS)If they do not do this and they claim to be members of the group they are raising money for then they are committing fraud against the donor. It is considered in some States to be "Obtaining Money By False Pretenses" and in others it is considered "Theft By Deception" and still other States considered it to be "Larceny". But no matter what you call it it is stealing from the Donor. In some cases when they get caught they are fined as much as 40 grand per call. I read our States Charitable Solicitation's Act and it looks like very few of these companies are raising money according to the Law's of our State and I will bet that if you read your States Charitable Solicitation Act you will find the same to be true. When they claim to be a member of the group they are raising money for, as this company is doing, it is damaging all other charities that do not use so called "Professional Fundraiser's" to raise money. They all know this but they continue to steal from "us" the donating public. Fundraiser's like this must be put out of business as they lie to the donor and they do this because some of these so called fundraisers get to keep as much as 99% of the money they collect and they use that money to call us over and over again to ask us for more money that they can use to call us over and over again. If you want to give money to charity then the best way is to hang up on the tele fundraiser committing fraud and search out the charity yourself.This company seems to be calling for Police Fire and Veteran's groups as well as medical and children's groups. All of which are wasting the bulk of your donation on fundraising and administrative costs like salary's for the charity officials. You can find out more about this scam group at http://www.pfcl.org/ They are the people whose information took out the United States Navy Veterans Association that stole 99.6 million in donations last year. They were also behind the demise of Civic Development Group out of NJ and the FTC's Operation False Charity in 2009 Nationwide based on their book "The Fraud Happen's In The First 8 Word's" which was sent out to all AG's and SOS's. They say they have contacts with the AG's, SOS's ,DHS, FTC, DOJ, FCC and Secret Service across the Country and their tips have been used in some of the largest Charity Fraud investigation's Nationwide as well as other Countries.  You can also find their book called "What The Fundraiser's Say" at a link on their site. They say they are a Church Group and they say this is the Mission of this Church to protect donations going to Police Fire Veteran Medical and Children's Charities. That book is a real eye opener made up of comments by the people calling you. After reading it, I will sure never make a donation over the phone again to any group that use so called "Professional Fundraiser's" that operate outside of the law and use illegal techniques to steal money from little sick kids or cops or firefighters or anyone else who really needs it.Anyway, the long and short of it is, GIVE DIRECTLY AND CUT OUT MIDDLEMAN COMPANIES THAT CALL YOU!Oh btw, the do not call list DOES apply to Professional Fundraiser's. Now if the charity actually picked up the phone and called then, yes, they are exempt from the DNC, but that is not what is happening here with this caller. This caller is Corporations for Character out of Murry Utah calling on behalf of the Fraternal Order of Police and the FTC just sued them for 26.4 billion dollars worth of DNC violations. That is 16 million violations at 16 thousand dollars each. The FOP is a good group for the most part but they need to do their own fundraising instead of contracting a company like this one to raise money. So, if you want to help the cops or the FOP, dont do it over the phone and send your check right to your local lodge. They get every dollar of it that way, instead of some telemarketer taking 85% or more of every dollar.Here is the FTC press release about this companyFor Release: 05/09/2011FTC Charges Utah Operation with Deceptive and Abusive TelemarketingDefendants Allegedly Made 16 Million Calls to Numbers on the Do Not Call Registry; Misrepresented How Funds Would Be UsedAt the request of the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice today filed a complaint that charges three Utah-based firms and their owner with waging deceptive and illegal telemarketing campaigns pitching movies and soliciting for donations, including calls to more than 16 million phone numbers on the National Do Not Call Registry.The FTC charged that the companies and their owner, Forrest S. Baker III, committed multiple violations of the FTC Act and the Telemarketing Sales Rule, and deceived customers about where the proceeds from their purchases and their donations would go.According to the FTC’s complaint, Baker controls a group of Utah-based companies that produce and market films and DVDs and solicit charitable contributions from consumers nationwide, including Feature Films for Families, Inc., Corporations for Character, L.C., and Family Films of Utah.The complaint states that in 2008 and 2009 the defendants conducted a nationwide calling campaign under the name “Kids First,” in which they offered to send two complimentary DVDs and requested feedback on whether the movies should be included on a list of recommended movies. However, the defendants did not disclose that consumers who agreed to participate would later receive calls pitching DVDs produced by the defendants.Moreover, the defendants’ telemarketers allegedly told consumers that “all of the proceeds of this fundraiser will help us finish up creating this recommended viewing list to help parents and grandparents, like us, with a list we can trust.” In fact, the organization responsible for the Kids First recommended viewing list, the Coalition for Quality Children’s Media, did not receive all the proceeds. The complaint alleges that the defendants received at least 93 percent of the DVD sales proceeds.The FTC also alleges that, between 2009 and 2010, the defendants conducted fundraising campaigns for organizations with names related to fraternal orders of police (FOPs) and firefighters. The defendants receive most of the donations raised by these campaigns, and the organizations retain only 15 to 33 percent.The Commission alleges that, in order to persuade donors to give money, the defendants made multiple false and misleading misrepresentations about the nature or purpose of the organizations for which the defendants requested donations, the way in which charitable contributions will be used, and the percentage or amount of any charitable contribution that will go to an organization. For example, the complaint alleges that the defendants falsely represented to donors that administrative costs are a “very minimal amount” and that contributions were used or would be used for safety-related officer training, bulletproof vests, or financial assistance to victims when, in fact, the organization for which the defendants were soliciting did not fund these activities, or used only an incidental amount of the contributions for such activities.The FTC’s complaint also alleges that the defendants have repeatedly called numbers on the National Do Not Call Registry in their telemarketing campaigns. In calls made under the name Kids First, the FTC alleges, the defendants made more than five million calls to consumers whose numbers were on the Registry. The complaint further charges that, since June 2007, the defendants have made approximately nine million additional illegal telemarketing calls to phone numbers that are on the Do Not Call Registry to sell Feature Films for Families DVDs.The FTC alleges that in another calling campaign in 2009, the defendants called consumers to urge them to buy tickets to see “The Velveteen Rabbit,” a film produced by Baker and released in theaters before going to DVD. The FTC complaint alleges that the defendants’ telemarketers made no effort to avoid calling consumers on the Do Not Call Registry. During this two-week campaign, the defendants called more than two-and-a-half-million consumers whose numbers were on the Do Not Call Registry.In addition, the complaint charges that the defendants violated the Telemarketing Sales Rule by:calling consumers who have previously asked that the defendants stop calling them;failing to provide the name of the telemarketer or seller making the call to Caller ID devices and, instead, providing names such as “CUSTOMER SVC,” “FAMILY VALUE CB” or “VELVETEEN”;failing to orally identify the seller, the purpose of the call, and the nature of the goods or services when making telemarketing calls; andabandoning calls to consumers by failing to connect consumers to live representatives when they answer the phone. In many cases, such abandoned calls lead to the recipients listening to “dead air” when they answer the call.The Commission vote referring the complaint to the Department of Justice was 5-0. The complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District for the Northern District of Florida. It names as defendants Feature Films for Families, Inc.; Corporations for Character, L.C.; Family Films of Utah, Inc.; and Forrest Sandusky Baker III, individually and as an owner and principal of Feature Films for Families, Inc., Corporations for Character, L.C., and Family Films of Utah, Inc.The complaint, filed by the Department of Justice at the request of the FTC, seeks a court order to permanently bar the defendants from violating the FTC Act and the Telemarketing Sales Rule, as well as civil penalties, and disgorgement of their ill-gotten gains.NOTE: The Commission approves a complaint when it has “reason to believe” that the law has been or is being violated and it appears to the Commission that a proceeding is in the public interest. The complaint is not a finding or ruling that the defendant has actually violated the law. The case will be decided by the court.The Federal Trade Commission works for consumers to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices and to provide information to help spot, stop, and avoid them.

A non profit calling on it's own behalf is exempted. The fundraiser must abide by the DNC. The so called professional fundraiser, Corporations for Character, was sued May 9th 2011 by the FTC for 16 million DNC violations at 16 grand each for a total of 26.4 billion dollars in DNC fines. It is the largest lawsuit of it's kind in the history of the United States. Corporations for Character raised money for Police, Firefighter's and Cancer charities, same as the company on this page.This company seems to be calling for Police Fire and Veteran's groups as well as medical and children's groups. All of which are wasting the bulk of your donation on fundraising and administrative costs like salary's for the charity officials.

I keep on receiving phone calls from this # as well but there is so much static on the line that i can not hear anything. It almost seems to me that it is a fax # but it is getting very annoying.

Phoned did not leave a message on answering machine. And their was no name on name display Just the phone number again.

Got a call, they did not answer.. Must be automated dialing..  they are now on block

The Prime Minister of Canada's Office at 1 (403) 253-7990.Call this number 20-30 times a day and ask them to reply to your call at 1 204 4806925.

I shut my answering machine off as I am sick of calls like these.

called around 4:30 and I didn't answer. A recording was left on my voice mail.."this is not a sales call, if you're a Canadian citizen and over the age of 18 press 1, if you're not press 2"  ..  I tried calling the number back and it's a busy signal.

I tried calling back also...getting really sick and tired of this!

hello -- I too get this number all the time --I believe it is the firefighters association calling for donations---I have already asked them to remove me from their list and to not call ---altho you do know that if it's a charity --they will call even if you are on the list.....hope this helps

Keeps calling, leaves no message except to say "please press 2". It's a waste of my time to keep picking up this voice message.

Called three times today, no msg, when I call back. No answer

Did not leave a message.

They call every day and leave a message on our voicemail.  It is a cut-off recorded message that says "18 and over Canadian citizen....".  Tried calling to put us on their do-not-call and the line just cuts off.  Irritating scam.

I am soooo sick of getting these calls day and night. I've tried pressing '0' and hanging up and calling the number back to try to get a real human on the phone so I can ask them to take me off their list, but no luck. I just want them to stop calling every single day.

Sick of all these unsolicited calls. Didn't answer the phone call. Just Googled it after and found this website.

If you call the number it says. "hello this is bannatyne research." it asks one survey question then says "that is all the questions good bye"Appears to be a scammer wanting to appear legitimate. Bannatyne research is not an entity in Manitoba.

well, i hate this number they keep calling me too for heck no reason which doesn't make any sense probably a hacker pretending credit union, but how the beeeeeeeeeeeeeeppp!!! they got my number, doesn't make any sense, before we had an identity history theft from long long ago. And this happen in winnipeg on UFCW a union company which where my work was coverd from them....Well, who knows but it just get in my nerve....How can we deal with this situation? Should I really call the cops and make a report...Or maybe this credit union what you guys say is those telemarketers that when you answer you will pay for long distance charges...Hope not? But can anyone just explain really and show proof who this guys are, then maybe we file charges.....

its milner ridge jail in manitoba

This number showed on my call log on May18, 2011.   No message - when I call back it's disconnected.  How annoying.

I answered and a man said he could lower my credit card debt, he asked me how much debt I had and I hung up. I am assuming he was going to ask for credit card # and pull a scam. I have gotten other callsfrom 204-480-xxxx #'s one was some automatic voice asking me to do a work survey. ALL SCAMS.

This number called me too. He claimed he is a representative of the Canadian Police Association. I told him I'm not stupid to believe him.  He doesn't even know what he was talking about. Don't ever ever believe him!

i received call from this number, they were asking for a $20  donation for the "cops for kids" foundation. i told them that i'd like to check the website first, and he hung up.

got a call from 204-480-0203 and i was told about my "credit card" that's carrying a balance. i asked which one and the guy asked me "which one is carrying a balance?". i told him go to hell..it's a scam!

same thing here

Not sure who this is but they call 2 or 3 times a day with no message..anyone know who this is they are from Winnipeg

Have received calls from this number on a daily basis for about 3 days.  When I answer - no one is there - when I tried calling the number back, it rings for awhile then disconnects.  Morons.

got in contact with group telecom and they are looking into this number and why we are having problems with this number. as far as they are concerned this is one of their numbers for telemarketing, but i would tell everyone that's having problems with this number to call this number  1-877-484-5101 toll free.Also for your info the national do not call list number is 1-866-580-3625 hope this helps

Yeah I have being getting a phone call from this number for about 3 or 4 days now. If I put myself down on the DO NOT CALL LIST, would it it stop? has anyone tried it.

They called me at home at 930pm and did a wonderful job mis-pronouncing my name. I hung up before they could give me their shpeil.

This is considered harassment! I am tired of these calls, they are calling in the morning, afternoon and night..they do not leave messages and nobody is on the other end. This got to stop.

This number has called me twice saying it was the Optimist club and looking for donations for childhood cancer.  I said to mail me a pamphlet and I would consider it but they kept wanting me to commit over phone.  They said it was tax deductable

Just added my name to their do not call list.. Old timers hockey I think.

Just got a call from here.. Seems that many of these 480 numbers are all some sort of call centers. They did not respond right away, so I hung up.

Called twice today, both times there was no one on the other end.  Called back & get a Conservative Party answering machine.  VERY annoying.

Ditto ...We are getting calls at same time each day from (204) 480-4911 for last 3 days in a row.  Is somewhat comforting to know we aren't only ones experiencing this but am still feeling a little spooked.  Are these robbers staking out possible targets?  Should we be reporting this to some sort of authority who can stop it?  Has anyone here called the police?  Not sure what to do?

This number just called. I did not answer.I am assuming it is politically motivated (exempt from do not call), which gets "kicked" by my system (all they get is a recording).

Just got the same call, picked it up and no answer.

Yet another call, this time it identified as a pay phone.  It did not last time.  I am tired of this.

Called me at work.

Got a call from this number didn't answer it!

get this on phone number often on call display - do not answer as does not say who it is...it is  a nuisance!!!!!

They keep calling and calling.. but do not answer right away..  So bye bye.

Just got a call from that number on a Friday morning - they said hello, and that was it.

Got a call from this odd number and was asked for by name....then hung up when they were told i was not home

Rang twice today once in the morning and at supper. Every day of the week. Will not leave a message on my answering machine.

Yet another call from this number.

Asking for money through donation or place an ad.

This # just called and my daughter askrd who was calling before giving me the phone. She said the caller would not say , instead just kept demanding to speak to a parent anfd when she said no the caller hung up.

this # called me few hours ago asking for donations or something..........she wants me to give  money to help the kids etc.when i said no she's insisting and then i hung up.

Got a call from this number today.  I didn't answer it, but it went to my voice mail.  In my voice mail, there was a woman moaning sexually.  i'd like to report this, but don't know who to report it to.

Strange.. two calls almost back to back from people wanting money..  When they do not answer right away, I hang up as it is usually some sort of automated dialing system.

Male voice talking to someone else sadi"See there is an answer there". or something like that.

This number is registered as:A Land-line, in Winnipeg Manitoba.  Service provider - GT Group Telecom Services Corp.  Google map places it near Palmerston Ave and Arlington St.

Just got a call,  they did not answer right away so I hung up.

This number is a dangerous number. I got a call from this number the guy on the other end asked me for my credit card number and PASSWORD i told him no and then he said ``if you don`t give me this information i will kill you and i will take money out of your bank. I hung up and was a bit scared.

I'd like to poke pencils in their ears, bastards.

Native guy from door and window place looking for the head of the household.

Just got a call from this number soliciting for some charity circus crap. I kept telling the guy "no, no, no" very politely at first, then he wouldn't give up. I just finally hung up on him...

This person was very rude, asked to speak to the Mrs. of the house. Told her it was me, she said oh, you sounded like a kid. Was very rude and sighed when I told her I wouldnt give any money as i did my own fundraising and volunteering for a similiar charity in the area already. Very rude!

I keep getting these calls very annoying hangs up when you answer

They called our house last night in Saskatchewan as well. My husband talked to a female who was looking for donations towards blind children's sports programs in Saskatchewan. When my husband asked why she was calling from a different area code (Manitoba), she said that she didn't know, why the display would show that, because she was calling from Regina, SK. She also told him that someone else had asked the same question.

Sorry - I forgot to mention that I tried to call the number back and a message came on that said "I'm sorry but the number you are calling is no longer in service. If you need assistance ....."

this number comes from Eco Line Windows in Winnipeg..   i had this numeber calling me many many times and all of a sudden this lady from this company is on the line. she says they use this number to call only..

Who is the owner?

Called me three times today, even after the first time I told them I'm not interested.  Just called back and left a message telling them to lose my number!

it called us today and no message. when i called back it did not even ring

Phone calls then when you answer it they hang up!

this number keeps calling but does not leave message.

Someone with a charity for the blind! Or at least that is what she told me! I dont much listen. If I want to donate I will donate to people I know, or a local group!

hangs up when i answer twice now

This number just called my house in Sask.Never saw the number before.

the yask if im mr.mfb, curious i say yea... they say they are cbc canadian blind corporation... i hear another person yell in background.... i ask and where the hell did you get this number... he goes quiet, i call him a little b***h and he hangs up on me

sounds like some scammers to me, he asks if im Mr MFB, curious i say yea... he says hes from CBC Canadian Blind Corporation or something... i ask yea and how did you get this number, i hear another kid in the background yell or scream... i ask again how he got the number, he goes silent and i call him a little b***h and he hangs up the phone

It is amazing, even after putting a recording for their number on my phone, they still call back!! What a waste of taxpayer time.  Keep it up Conservatives, and you will guarantee yourselves not getting my vote!

recieved call only to be hung up on, but  waits till i answer

I just got this call seconds ago.  I did not answer, just came here to see who it was (I am not in the 204 area code).  Lucky for me, my computer has a modem, and I found some FREE software that allows me to block (and play them a specific message).  All they get from me is a recording telling them, basically, voting is still done by "secret" ballot, and me telling them who I would vote for kind of defeats that purpose.

I picked it up and they said it was the Conservative Party of Canada. It was for a national survey.

Got a call from a man at 204-480-1173., on Mar 5 2011.  He claimed he was calling for the Canadian Police Association and they were raising money for some kids' charity.  I asked him where he was calling from and he said from Madison, Wisconsin.  He also had a very definite "Southern" dialect.  (Why would an American policeman be calling on behalf of a Canadian police association?)When I told him I did not believe nor trust anything he was saying, he told me to have a good day and hung up.I called the local police and was told to call the national fraud police at 1-888-495-8501.

Have been receiving the same thing 4 times now.

This number has been calling my house for three weeks - once - three times a day - I have called that number and asked to be removed twice already and they still continue to call.  If this really is Conservative party of Canada - nice way to loose votes when you are already not listening to the people.....

same here, calls in evening, hangs up, i call back and no answer!!!!

they called my brother asking for me then called me but as soon as you answer they hang up .the line accepts no incomming calls

i hear background sounds maybe recorded don't say anything just phones repeatedly.

Call came from this number and just hung up on me.

I have received several calls from this number. I answered once out of curiosity. The caller (male) asked for someone by name and my reply was that the person in question was not available to which the caller replied 'ok then' and hung up. Likely a 'work-from-home' telemarketer.

I just got a call from this number to my cell phone.

I received a call from this number too 204-480-0203. They are offering a GE Security Alarm. After a few minutes their supervisor or manager call me using this number 1416-962-9002 name appeared Marcelo Mariano on my phone.

It's getting that I don't pick up any calls now if I don't know the #, if it's important they can leave a message and I'll call back, obviously it's not important....they never leave a message. It's so sad how our world is changing and we can't trust anyone....they say it's for charity but is it? I work too hard for my money to give it away so everyone get's a no, I can't afford it financially and I won't play the game.

number has shown up on my phone several times but never a message .. very bothersome .... if you are going to call.. leave a message!

Caller does not leave a message, hangs up after a pre-recorded message gives contact info.

Got the call strange background nose like wind there was no massege. I called back2x.. busy tone .

Called strange back ground noise and message.

Claimed to be the Conservative party of Canada.  Ironic isn't it!

same here i dont know who it is  first time today

They left a message on my voice mail identifying themselves as Commercial Credit, not sure from which city but it's definitely in Manitoba, and they sound entirely like creditors. They give their number as 1-866-958-5850. I have no idea why they called, but searching for the number they called from led me to find that they can be quite abusive. If they call again and I'm there to answer, I will definitely give them a taste of their own medicine. These are the same kind of a**wipes who harassed my 80-year-old mom into bankruptcy after my step-dad died, so I look forward to releasing a little (okay, a lot of) steam if they call me again.

This number has called my home several times.

I think this may be a number that shows up whens someone is using a long distance calling service. My friend calls me with calling cards all the time and I think this was one of his missed calls

Got a threat from this number and want to find out who's number this belongs to.

it is a phishing scam to get you to call them

That number called at 7:47 tonight - did not leave message.

I had the same number call me.They hung up and I called back they hung up.Called the third time just a machine come on.

Any one have a clue as to who this is? I keep getting calls from them...

second time calling, still no message

Keep calling my number and not leaving a message.

Did not leave any message.

I got this number and it was a fax machine. They called back 7 times

I was asked if I was such and such.  I replied negatively.  Then I was asked how long I had my phone number.  I hung up on him because it was none of his business!From then I was contacted very often by this man.  Of course, I did not pick up the phone.  Finally, I picked up the phone one day and heard a message for me to call back.  What did he think he was?Never pick up a telemarketer call, local or otherwise, but always welcome ad mailings!

got a call tried to call it back couldn't get throw???????????

constantly calls

same as previos reports- no one there

yet another unwanted call from them.

the number belongs to CPAR - Canadian Physicians for Aid and Relief

This one calls regularly .. never answers when you pick it up.  Obvoiusly digital calling machine. I am quite fed up with them. First they try on 800 470 1460 then this.

no mess left

NUM FROM 204.480-1174 CALLED DO NOT KNOW WHO IT WAS

CALL MY HOME,NO MESS LEFT

They keep calling my work number.

I keep getting calls from this number.

I answered but no one was there.. An obvious random caller machine. I am getting calls from this number 2-3 times a day.. I do not appreciate it.

I answered but no one was there.. An obvious random caller machine. I am getting calls from this number 2-3 times a day.. I do not appreciate it.

i get  call from the same number once every night when i am not home, if i get the call when home ill answer it just to find out who it is and let you all know

I would really like to report an annoying phone call from this area code and numbe, I would like something done about it as it's got to stop. every night this week it's called about 3 or more times today 3 times. May you please do something about it. Greatly appreciated it

Keeps calling. Who is it?

I keep getting this number on my phone 3or more times when i am at work.

Called me on my cellphone. No message left.

When I answered nobody was there.

No message left

They are not giving up.. They tried again just now..  no message left. annoying

Called while out, no message. WTF? I have unwanted telemarketers blocked. What could these people want?

i got through when i called the number back and it is for the national blind association or something like that.

I'd like to poke pencils in their ears, bastards.

Got this call just now. no known number.. I did not answer it. they did not leave a message.

Just called me , glad I didn't answer.Have never been called by this particular one before , but whenever any charity calls and I say no they insist and as much as I wish I could donate ... I can't afford it ! Wonder if they get a commission with how much they try to talk you into it..

Got this call this morning from this number.. I registered on the Canadian Do Not Call list, but that does not seem to deter them.

i just got a call from there, he asked for 'Mr. MyLastName' and there is no Mr. here. He would not give his name or where he was calling from or what it was regarding. Sounded like a sloppy old man.

These guys don't quit. We NEVER answer and they call EVERY night.

We got two calls today from this number.  They addressed me by name.  He said he was with ADT and they wanted to sell me an home alarm system.

Seems to be a number-searching firm.  Asked me if I am [xyz], said no, asked me how long I've had this number, then went, ok we'll remove you.  No idea otherwise; he gave his name as Andrew.

Called me too, hung up after 3 rings

I'm getting calls from this number too!  And they are not leaving any messages.  I'm in Vancouver, BC

Who are they?

The caller left no message.

get them to stop!

Keep calling my number and not leaving a message.

I just want to know who called me on my cell during work hours...

telemarketers, got a call from this morning

keep getting calls from this number, but no one there or they will not leave message.

They identified themselves as being with Xentel - as you may or may not know, these people solicit funds on behalf of several organizations.   If you're going to make a contribution to a charitable cause, do it directly rather than through this telemarketing call, that way the charity gets all the money.Search for Xentel Telemarketing on Google and see what oozes up.

I should also mention that "Brandi" refused to put me on their "Do not call" list when I asked her to.

Actually they identified themselves as Xentel.  If you google Xentel Telemarketing you'll get a clearer picture.  If you feel like contributing to charitable causes, please do it directly, or mail them so that telemarketers don't receive their cut.

It's the Canadian Liver Foundation...

called but didn't leave message

caller didn't leave message

Annoying phone calls with no one on line when picked up.

No one is on the line.

My company owns the phone number 204-480-0314.  Our phone system was hacked and scammers were routing their calls through our system on Feb 14th.  We blocked outgoing calls and worked to secure our system immediately after finding out about this.We will co-operate and provide information to police.

Some recorded female voice saying that my debit card with some credit union was temporarily deactivate and to hit 1 to give them information IE account numbers I'd bet to reactivate it.

Unknown caller

Also got a call tonight - also about 8:30PM central time zone asking for credit card info because it had been deactivated.  Hung up & contacted police.

I am on the do not call list, and they keep calling. I wish they would stop.

They called today, and I was home to answer it.. They asked for my dad by first name, and when I asked what it was regarding the lady said that it was a 'Courtesy call from a local charity'.

The line clicked a few times after I answered, but I remained on the line anyways asking 'Hello?' just to be polite, when a recording started to inform me that "due to a higher call volume than expec--" and then the line clicked a few more times and hung up.

unknown

Two calls yesterday; one call this morning.

Receive calls from this number, in BC. They never leave a message. Unpublished landline from Winnipeg, Manitoba

The line was dead for the first several seconds of their call, then they started speaking very quickly (and they knew my name). I responded with "Hello" and then listened politely. After a few seconds of their monologue they either hung up or the connection broke. Weird.

Some begging scammers pretending to represent local police. They knew my name. I have responded with polite "Hello", and then, after just a few seconds of their monologue mentioning police, they hung up.

I was getting a call from a 1-204-480-xxxx # a few weeks ago and it was a very sexually suggestive call.  Also I learned that if you answer this number it may be someone trying to steal your I.D.  Star 57 this number and report it to the police and your service provider.

This number calls my cell phone. I do NOT answer for fear of being charged long distance. I do not know who it is.

(204) 480-4525DEC 21, 2009Many calls this month from this number...What or who is this?  (204) 480-4525Manitoba, CANADA... I know that much.Must be something fake as there is knowone on the line...ever!Waht a nousense! I 'm on the NO call listing too!but it is a new call so it may take them a month or so.I will log a complaint with them as you can do that for specific, presistant callers.

This number called on Dec 18/09 at 5:30 and inquired about our security system.  They said they were with Securtek Security.  (whom we deal with).  They said they had a deal on security systems.

They have been calling every day for two weeks, sometimes twice a day.  Each time I answer there ia a pause and then a disconnect.  Getting annoying.

Caller claimed to be with Xytel or Zytel, calling for Canadian Organ Donation charity.  Area code 204 is province of Manitoba, Canada. I cannot find Xytel or Zytel company names on Internet, but the charity MIGHT be real.  Anyone know the telemarketer company's correct name?  I am in middle of asking caller to remove me from calling list and she hangs up on me.

Further to my Dec. 9, 2009 post - I believe that company name is Xentel.  They have a Don't Call Service at this email [email protected] ishttp://www.xentel.com/xentel/contact.htm

called me @ 5 pm on a saturday, left no message  tried to call back and got a busy signal constantly on a sunday

Calls repeatedly.  Asked to be on the do not call list...repeatedly.  It is a company that calls on behalf of at least 15 different charities, such as the Firefighter's Burn Fund (or something like that), Childhood Leukemia Research etc.  They are legit charities but I have hear (unverified) that the call center takes a percentage of the donations.  I worked for this company and the supervisors are relentless in walking around and looking at your "tally" sheet; you get hassled if it's low, you get special rewards if you can gain donations past a certain level. I worked one shift and never went back.  Donate to one of these charities, and every campaign they have going will be on their call list and you'll be hounded repeatedly.

I've been receiving a call from 204-480-4502 for a few weeks.  They usually call between 8 & 9 pm CST.  I haven't been home to answer.  The number shows up as unknown name.

They are calling my cell phone. This is a private number and should not have gained access to it.

received several calls from this number and no message

Got a call from {204}-480-4503 this morning {Oct. 1st. The man on the phone said he was from the Can. council for the blind, and they were collecting for,, etc, etc, when I told him I was sorry, but, I already donate to 4 0r 5 charities, a couple in my own area, and that I wasn't interested in donating to his cause, he just kept on with his "speal", and didn't even appear to hear what I was saying ! ....finally I said "I am sorry Sir, but I am not interested", and when he still kept on talking as if not hearing, I hung up the phone. It is bad enough that we get these calls at all, but when they don't respect your decision, it BUGS me to bits .. Where is the "class?"& the respect for oUR rights?

Receive calls daily (including weekends) from this number. No ID displayed.

I've received several calls in Nova Scotia from this number. They never leave a message.

Automated call professing to be a survey. I hung up as soon as I heard that but 2hours later my phone rang again with the same caller ID

Automated message asking for opinion on abortion??????  I am mailing the CRTC, this is crap

My understanding is that long distance calls are being routed through local phone numbers. I received a call from Japan with a local number.

Just received a call from this number offering to lower my Visa intrest rate. The guy wanted to "Verify" some info..I hung up and reported him to Visa..They are investigating..

Just received this call. no message given. Have no idea who it is.

Called several times in late evening.When number is called, receive recorded message.Customer service number is 1-800-326-6145

Received several calls in late evening.When I asked them not to call back, they did several days later.When number is called back, a recorded maessage answers.Customer Service # is 1-800-784-9192

Just got a missed call on this number Right before a collection agency CRS called me ....disreputable and agressive one I refuse to deal with. you put the link together...

Got a call from this number and they guy was trying to tell me that he was going to lower my hydro bill next month. Claimed he was from Winnipeg Hydro.

calls 4x a day, no one on other end. Busy signal on return Very Annoying

I got a call on my cell phone from this number. No message was left. I did a reverse search to see who it belonged to, but it is unpublished. I tried unsucessfully to call it.

Had this call # call before, and it said "Due to an unexpected volume of calls" and then silence. It called today, and there actually was someone on the other end of the line, but I didn't recognize the voice so... *Click*

"We are currently experiencing technical difficulties.Please call back in 48 hours.  Thank you.   (then line went dead)

Yes this company is a scam. Email does not work. They will keep on charging $79.95 on your card. First they will say it's a free trial for only $5.95 but after that they will charge you $79.95. Pure G Health is a scam. Beware!!!!

I missed a call from this number... didn't leave a msg.

Canadian Police Assocation. I called it back because I have seen this number before in my caller ID.

"Due to an unexpected volume of calls" is all that I got, after which the call went silent. Nothing else.

6 phone call from this number in the last 6 days.

said hello, no response, hung up.

Got a call. sounds like machine voice..creepy...

Got a call from this number.

Got a call. Hung up. Shouldn't have been rude, but don't trust anyone.

got a call

Call at all times of the day and evening.  When we answer they hang up.  Have been calling every couple of days for a few weeks now.

I call Winnipeg from the states on a Comcast line. In Winnipeg my number doesnt show up. Instead the number 480-9170 shows up on caller ID WITH NO AREA CODE. Someone should stop misuse of this number.

i   am talking to a guy..supposedly from the u.s.a...was  busy and couldnt answer a different phone number he calls from.  this call showed     up local and i tried to answer it...same as his other number keeps breaking up and a bad connections..would go with a scammer from africa

I have also been conned by Healthy Solutions & Pure G Rezv.  I have been calling three numbers continuously since April when they first s****ed charging the Visa with charges.  They have beat me for $204.00.  I keep getting an array of people answering but apparently the supervisor is JAMIE SMITH.  They all have very simple names eg. Beth, Samantha etc. but strangely enough they all have philippino accents.  They will not give out any other phone numbers for billing department and keep giving me an e-mail address that doesn't respond to replies, reallyyyyy!!!! The numbers I have are 819-483-0467 & 204-480-0746 and I can't remember the third.  All for different companies and all the product is held up at customs.  They have offered me so far $20.00 off the product I never received and June 22, 2009 they offered me the product (that I don't have) for half price.I am very ****ed off about this and can't understand why no one can do anything about it.

I got a change on my credit card.

What kind of company keeps changing their name and phone number?  This is a scam.  When you call the voicemail it says thank you for calling customer service and billing, but no one is ever available and no one ever calls back.  There is no customer service.

http://www.myfreegreentea.comThere is not a requirement to agree to "terms and conditions" on this website.  These charges can't be legal.

For whatever this information may be worth to those of us who have had dealings with the above named variety of company names - Vital-Rezv,Health-EStores, Pure-G-Health, Dermapril, etc. here is a website and phone number that I hope will be helpful to all of you in dealing with this unethical [email protected];  [email protected]:  1-819-483-0467   This outfit operates out of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada    Good Luck!!

This compnay is charging my credit card  $79.95 every three weeks. They are the same company but going under different names. Started out as Vital-RezV (which is the same company as Dermapril as seen on Oprah), they now use Pure G Health and Life Herbal.Answering their emails to cancel does not work.  BEWARE!

I just rec'd a phone call from 480-9170 on my cel and tried to call back from land line and all I got was a busy signal, and a msg that says call abandoned.  Can it be blocked?

I get the call from the same #, no voice message left.  I try to call back but all I get is a busy signal.  It's kind of annoying.  Can I block this number?

the billing department for Pure G Health Acai berry.

This number has been calling a couple times a day, usually 7:30-8:30 pm, but also called at 9:30 am.  I haven't answered.

I also received a call from this number on my cell phone (which I have shared ONLY with friends & family)  The message was "congratulations your phone number has been selected. please press 1 to recieve your promotional gift"  I disconnected the call.

UNKNOWN caller

This number has been calling me lately.. if you answer there is never anyone there. If you call back they give a message we are experiencing difficulties and call back in 48 hrs.  Seems like a scam of some kind.

Called without asking for anybody in particular or identifying himself.  Then the idiot tried to offer me lower long distance rates.  It seems like the only people who call my landline are trying to scam me.  I might as well just get rid of the damn thing and use my cell.

Said i won a free promotional gift. I hung up. Nothing is free.

Calling about offering a low interest rate on my credit card

Got a call from 204-480-9170 - they were trying to offer me a lower interest rate on my existing card. In their sales pitch they quoted the wrong prime rate in Canada, and said that they have a business agreement with my bank despite having my old address. With my scam alarm going off, I hung up. Will be reporting this.

seems to call nightly in mid to late night hours, 8pm to 10pm CST

I found a number from another web site to call that belongs to Bell and they will forward the request not to call to this number - Bell Voice and Data - 204-480-2000

Won't stop calling, have asked to not be contacted and have been tried on my house and cell phone multiple times.

Shaw. They needed to do some work on my phone line.

Just got one. This is Shaw Cable Security services. Guy said that my comp sends spam, suggested to run a package that will be sent on my email. I decided to check the matter and called Shaw (phone number from their public web site). Customer service person checked the facts, - the call was legitimate.

Repeated calls from this number.

What kind of scam is this??? stop calling!!!

They call and hang up. Constantly. It's as bad as another number:

some sick ******* left a perverted message on my answering ma****e with my daughter singing on it saying "i bet that little girl would sound a whole lot better with a ***** in her mouth.  call me back b***h"  i think youd sound a whole lot better with a ****gun in your mouth buddy.  this number should be shut down, it sounds like its nothing but trouble.

some sick ******* left a perverted message on my answering ma****e with my daughter singing on it saying "i bet that little girl would sound a whole lot better with a ***** in her mouth. call me back b***h" i think youd sound a whole lot better with a ****gun in your mouth buddy. this number should be shut down, it sounds like its nothing but trouble.

This unknown names phone number 204-480-9170. What kind company

Now it works as a fax. We are listed as Do not Call and I need this fax to stop botherig me.

Just received a call from this number, I pressed 1 to ask them to place me on their DNC list... she actually argued with me saying that she couldn't put me on that list without a good reason. WTF!!! Told her I had every right to ask and I didn't need a reason, "FINE" click! I expect a call back again. The Federal DNC list works for Canadian and some American marketers, but these over seas marketers don't give a Sh!t.

hi

no one spoke when i answered phone.

It gets frustrating when they start soliciting business cell phones!!

I received a call on the afternoon of 12/12/08. The above number was on my call display. I was not able to answer when they called and decided to let it go to my voice mail. Whoever called did not leave a message and when I tried to call the number back to see who called I received a busy signal. I tried the number several times and receive a busy signal each time. I went to the Canada 411 website to do a reverse search for the number. There was no information on this number according to this website. About halfway down the page there was an icon to click that said owner information where I could find out who owns this number. When I clicked a company called GT Telecom Services came up and according to others who complained about this company it is a telemarketing firm. My phone number is registered on the Federal Do Not Call List and I would not want to be bothered by this company or any other telemarketers. Thank you. I hope there is enough information here for you to follow up on.

I had won something and was to press 1. i just didn't say anything and they hung up

telemarketer

I've had nine calls in three days including one at 9:30 in the evening.  No one talks when I answer as they say to please hold because all their lines are busy. They continue to call in spite of reporting them.

What do you do when the phone provider of their customers won't do anything to help you?? I have an unpublished number so how did they get my number??

five calls in two days despite being on the do not call list

Just got a call from this number. Hung up without pressing 1. Wanted to look into it before acting. If they call back, I will press 1, hopefully I'll get a live person on the phone, and I'll advise them to put me on their do not call list. I can tell you where they got your number though, as I have only used this number for one accout, which is AMEX.

I HAD THIS UNKNOWN CALLER CALL MY CELL PHONE WHILE I WAS AT WORK YESTERDAY DEC 2. THIS MAKES ME IRRATE WHEN I RECIEVE CALLS AND THEY CAN'T LEAVE ME A MESSAGE, AS I SAY ON MY CELL PHONE SO IF YOU CALL ME AT LEAST I KNOW WHO THE CALLER IS, SO I CAN GET BACK TO YOU LATER. IT'S COMMON SENSE. ANYWAY GT GROUP TELECOM SERVICES CORP  CALLS ME , LEAVES ME KNOW MESSAGE , I TRY TO CALL THEM LATER TO NO AVAIL. I'M NOT IMPRESSED. I NEED TO KNOW WHY THEY ARE CALLING ME ANYHOW. MY # IS 204 887 6797 I ONLY NEED 1  CALL OR MESSAGE IF I DON'T GET BACK TO YOU . NO HARRASSING CALLS.

"congratulations your phone number has been selected. please press 1 to recieve your promotional gift" after pressing o1 the call ended.

they were aksed to remove my number, there address is. 1 Wesley Ave #301 Winnipeg MB, R3C 4C6 Phone #: 204-953-2700 Fax #: 204-947-6724

I got a call from this #, they said they were UPS, and that I had outstanding charges from the Canadian Revenue for an international package, they left an 866-836-4875 # to call back. The scary part is the invoice # they used is from an old package that was sent almost a full year ago. I spoke with UPS and they are now aware of the situation.

These people phone repeatedly, and usually the line is dead quiet because they have an auto-dialer which calls even when they don't have a telemarketing agent available to talk. If you wait long enough, you sometimes hear a recorded voice saying something like: 'Due to unexpected volume, all agents are already on the phone..." We've repeatedly told the live agent that eventually comes on the line: "Do not call this number again." They keep calling anyway. This week they want to talk to the person in charge of advertising and charity support. Next week it'll probably be catheter cleansing services or chimney mural mosaics.

i just got a call from this number and it was a machine person saying "congratulations your phone number has been selected. please press 1 to recieve your promotional gift"and obviously I hung up right away...this was on my cell phone.

The number was rented out by Bell Canada to a third party.  They tell you that you have won something and to press 1.  They are just trying to sell you something.  The last two times that they called me and I got a human on the other end I gave them a blast from a whistle.  Funny, no more calls.

They never stop phoning, even my cell phone!

Now I'm getting these calls on my cell phone!Press 1 to claim your prize!A free trip to cancun...yipee!

a machine saying "congratulations you won... just hit '1' to..."whereby I hung up.

Hi!  This number is used by SKYPE when someone is calling you from a computer on the web for example.

Calls every night but I don't answer cause I don't recognize the number

I keep getting this number calling me in Winnipeg manitoba. We don't have bell out here... and it comes up as a local number. I know that telephone companys rent out the lesserquality lines to third party companys for long distance calls like those calling cards you can get to call over seas to aftrica inda and stuff anyhow they rent out the crappy quality lines to the third part companys and it is commen for the lines to get messed

I won't take the call because I do not recognize it; but they are calling at least 3 or 4 times an evening.

Called about 7:45pm Saskatchewan time.  Answered phone, a message came on stating that all lines were busy.  Message stopped in mid sentence and a man's voice asked for my wife.  When I answered that she wasn't home, he hung up. (3rd call in two days)

this is a number used by shaw

Hey guys! i m from saskatchewan too and i recieved 2 calls in a row on 25 july and 26 july 2008. but never answered. its a manitoba number, first i thought its a call from my work as my employer is based out of there but i guess after reading your comments its completely something else.

CALLED...LEFT NO MESSAGE

She refered to me by my first name and was glad to finally get a hold of me (after calling every day for the past few weeks). Called with a very well rehearsed sales pitch to ask for donations for burned children in Saskatchewan, to go to some camp, for over $200, then down to $99 and $60. I mentioned the phone number wasn't a SK #, she admited it is a call center in Manitoba. I turned her down and she pleasantly closed of the call.

They have called everyday for the past 2 weeks, never leave a message. Tried calling back and all i get is a recording saying they are wanting donations for burn victims and say they want to speak to you in person, not take a message and they hang up on you. Quite the pain, if you know what i mean!!

Just got a call at around 6pm- No one was there, and then the line hung up.

Got a call from them july 15, 2008.  It was unknown caller and the guy on the line said it was for a children's burn victim camp and asked for a donation of $130.00 and confirmation of my mailing address...

I've received numerous calls from this number, including one today (july 16). I never answer.

I have recieved 6 calls from this number in the past week while at work and never a message.

Got a call on my cell phone. No one was there when I answered!

called, said wrong number, then hung up

I received a call from someone I know and this call was made from Kampala, Uganda but to my surprise my caller ID showed this number (1204-480-9170) instead of the caller's real phone number. After seeing this number I was surprised and although I knew the call was coming from Uganda I out of curiousity asked the caller where she was calling from and her answer was "of course from Uganda". I'm confused and I don't know if this number is harmful or not.

Caller did not leave a message

When I called the # back I got a recording saying they were the Canadian Council for the Blind. Callers were directed to "customer service" at 1-800-525-9418 9am-9pm EST.

received a call from this number about 20 minutes ago.  It was a recording about lowering interest rates and to press 1 to speak to someone or press 3 to stop the calls.  I press the 3 so we'll see.  I also set up call blocking on the number so hopefully I wont' get these idiots calling anymore.  I wonder how they would like getting these stupid calls all the time...

well you all have to look no more the lady is the one and only kimberlee white she lives in calgary and if you want to contact her the number is 403 279 5978 have fun i beleive leona will answer the phone but with repeated trys you will get lea janet they are both kim

These people call a lot.  They are now hanging up when I answer.

they called me 11:21am and when I answer nobody was there...

shows up as 480-4525calls a few times withing minutes and does not leave a message.

I hit *69 and got this number...They call my house endlessly asking if I want a lower interest rate on my card, if so, press 1.  I pressed 1 one time and told the guy to take me off their list.  He said okay...calls haven't stopped.  I pressed 1 again today and asked to talk to the boss, and the guy said okay, and then proceeded to hang up on me.

called at 112pm today...i didnt answer b/c i didnt know the number..called the number, they gave no reason why they'd have called.

Called around 1:00 pm.  My son answered, said hello numerous times....no reply.

I also got a call from this number and there was nothing then hang up.

Received call today at 13:20..  I answered several times quickly but there was no response..  Some clicking.. I assume it was a telemarketer with an auto dial system.

This is actually some local switchboard that re-routes international calls.  I get calls from a friend who is in South Africa right now and it shows up on the call display as a local call from 480-9170.So the number itself is harmless, however, people calling through it might not be.

I just got this call at 4/24/2008 7:20 PM on my CELL PHONE. Did not answer, they did not leave a message.

Always calls in evening. Pick up. No answer.

16:41 today. Received a call and no one was there when I answered.  At least no one responded. I called Shaw, and they have no reason to have been calling my number.

Just got the call.no clue who they are.

Called on my cell phone today at 5.49 pm ... I am in Ontario ... there was no one there when I answered

Who are they???

Got the same call.  Also don't know who they are.

I keep receiving a call from 204-480-8101. The caller I.D. reads "unknown name". I did try answering it once but just received a busy signal.  Has anyone else received a call from the above number

Got calls at work and on my work cell. Do Not Call legislation can't come soon enough.

Someone called at 530 AM sounded like from a party...I heard people in the background but quickly changed to a busy signal when I tried throughout the day to find out who it was...

They call me during school, about three times a day. Just a busy signal when you call back.

caller did not respond to hello I waited till he hung up moments later

Want to know who owns this ph. number. Thanks.

I just contacted Bell from the instructions mentioned above and they said they would take care of getting that company to stop bothering us. Hopefully they will.

got a call Feb20 12:51.  didn't recognize it, so went here.  nothing new to add...

I have recevied this call usually about 3 time a week for the past two months and there is no one on the other end. Everytime I dial it back there is always a busy signal. I use to be with Vonage but this problem didn't start until after I switched to our local phone company service.

Have also had this number call me as well. H ave been recieveing these calls for the past two months now either have missed the call or there has been no one on the other end. When we have called the number back it is either busy or says that its part of a vonage test line "This is a Vonage test line, no further action is required". We use to have the vonage service and noticed that the number from others who have answered our calls have reported that this very number comes up on there call display or it was all zero's.

I phoned them back. This is Manitoba Oldtimers Hockey Association.  Collecting for something no doubt.

Winnipeg Police Service begging for money to support THEIR charity.

The local city police pressuring people to donate money, so they will look good giving a big fat cheque to some charity.  Even after doing the nauze to be on teir do not call list. . . they keep calling, which only makes me NEVER want to support anything they are affiliated with!

My wife also gets calls from these people several times a day. The number belongs to GT Group Telecom Services Corp. I called them at their main line at (204)480-2000.  It is actually Bell. I talked to someone in customer service for voice and data telecommunications services. They said the line is actually rented out to someone else. They were able to take my name and number to have our name taken off a telemarketing list. Hopefully this resolves it. I urge everyone with this problem to call and complain. Hopefully someone will listen and resolve the issue.

This number called our house 3 times on Sat (b/t 7:25 - 7:30 am) and again, at 7:30 on Sunday.  Woke our kids up both times - on the weekend.When we pick up, no one is there.  When we call the number, we get a fast busy signal!

Called back and got a recording for a charity soliciting for funds for "Old timers hockey"....The message said they will be calling back... great

got a call this evening when i answered all i heard was a man mummbling, i could not make out what he was saying then when i said hello again he hung up. Strange.

My wife got a call from this number early this morning. A recorded voice said "Due to heavy volumes" and then hung up.

A guy named Larry called from this number.  He said for $150 he would sell my car.  He started askeing questions.  I said I didn't know about it because I had never heard of the business.  He gave me an e-mail site www.alldealsonwheels.com.  I surfed it.  However it seems fishy, no company information etc.  He also gave me a number of 866-873-9755.  I called both numbers and it rings busy or theres no answer.

they call our office frequently and won't speak to me - they hang up when i tell them the owner isn't in.  they're annoying me.

i just contacted a toll free number - 1.800.379.7808 - you will then have an option to remove yourself from their call list.

They called me tonight, just a few minutes ago. It rang twice, and when I picked up, the line was already dead.

They called me on a Saturday at 10am then again at 3pm.  I didn't answer and they didn't leave a message.  When I called them back, I got message stating that "this number has been disconnected"Ya right.

someone called me from this number asking for someone from pakistan. Very strange?

Recieved a call at 9:30am this morning from this number. They Kept asking about some lady from Pakistan. Seemed like a prank call to me.

Knew my name, then line went dead, then came back on, then they hung up.  Weird.

Call back number for Autosold or MyAutosold...a con in my opinion.  Just hang up.  Initially called me from 204-480-0223 on pretext of selling my car for me...for a fee of course.  Save your breath.

Got call from "Lea" who called on the pretext of being interested in my car for sale.  Got a call back number for her of 204-480-8694...an answering service for Autosold or MyAutosold...a total con.  Just hang up.

wanted to know if i wanted to save $on long distance!

phone rings, I pick up, I say, hello ? no one answers, I hang up and dial the number back and get a busy signal always

I called it back, it says its disconnected, SO WEIRD>

many of the TN with pre fix 480 are long distance calls

Numerous calls over many months, no message left on answering machine

you won a vacation!!!NOT

I've seen this number a few times on my Caller ID, but they never leave a message.

NOBODY SPOKE... EVEN ON ATTENDING THE CALL!!!

This is a call from Cars & Trucks. I had a vehical listed in the Auto Trader and this is just another company that wants to scam you by paying them hundreds of dollars and they will get your car sold for top dollar. Scam stay away..

This is a Vonage gateway, it doesn't dial in to anyone.  It will show up on the caller id from anyone who may be using Vonage VOIP for their telephone service.

No message, just a hang up several times now.

Received a call from this man with Canadian accent,  responding to ad I have either on cars.com or autotrader.com.  I googled  the number before calling him back; having read the previous posts I won't bother.  What a shame!

This caller by the name of Sonia also called me today on Thanksgiving day to offer the same thing.  She told me, for $99 dollar up front, she would sell my car within 2 to 3 days.  She claimed, she had several buyers in my area that have already gotten qualified by this company to purchase my vehicle.  She suggested I should raise my price up $2500.  She claimed, she had high risk buyers so I would need to give her my credit card info to seal the deal before it's too late.  I told her that it's strange to call me on Thanksgiving day and asked if she would call me back the next day during a regular business day...this way it'll give me time to research her "financial institution".  She responded, by delaying this, her buyers will may not be interested anymore.  She hung up.  Is she for real??

Just talked dirty on the phone (Sex Call)

Same as above. Her name was Sonia. I called her back at 888-224-5681 but came up as Manitoba, 204-480-7595. She said she had 3 buyers for my vehicle and would recommend I raise the price. IF I could sell it in two days, would it be worth paying $99 upfront? I said I would love to sell but I won't pay money to sell it! She got ****y and ***g up.

Guy saying he has 2 interested clients "in my area" ready to buy my car for a $100 fee.

Guy with a Canadian accent called asking about a vehicle for sale.  Then quicly moved to the three buyers he had lined up for $99. Swore at me and hung up when I said no thanks.

Same thing. She even swore when I told no...

I recieved a call today from a phone number of 204-480-7566. Asking all kinds of questions about my car (I thought it was a potential buyer). He went on saying how he had three people interested in buying my car and ask for a $99 fee upfront. I said "no, but i will pay you when the car sells", he told me to Fu*k off and hung up the phone. Be careful, they are trying to get credit card numbers.

MANITOBA, CA***A - some marketing company that scans autotrader.com and craigslist.org for phone numbers and calls people to sell them marketing on their cars - SPAM SPAM SPAM!  Call em back and tell Eugene he's a ****!  I told him to take my number off the list and he said "no, we'll call you a***n later I'm sure"

Got the same thing, called at 8am but didnt answer. No voicemail left but im really curious to find out what this ones all about.

Unwanted caller

Her name is sonia. She claimed she was in houston and that she had at risk buyers

I got one of these too - no message

Yeah, it keeps calling me at like 7:00 am... im not even close to be getting out of bed at that time. so its just always a missed call on my phone! and when i call it back, it just busy! , its almost  like a payphone

No message left by the caller

Same deal. Some idoit calls, wants to buy my car, I missed his call so he left a message, but the number he left doesn't match the one on my phone. I ran both numbers on this site. and look what I find!

Most likely a scam.

Got one from Edmonton yesterday, now Manitoba today. Must be how they skip across the border with the $$$$$. This Canada/USA thing has been going on in Upstate NY for a while, only using different gimmicks.

Scammers just lvm asking if my car's still for sale, saw it's from Manitoba and figured they're not for real, I'm in Baltimore.

im selling a car as well  they left no message or name

Same as above, but even after telling them no, they have continued to call...

Wierdest thing! I'm in Winnipeg (that's the area code) and didn't look when I was talking to them.  She asked for all sorts of information on henna and then told me she was from somewhere in the states.  When I told her I don't sell henna, and where to get it, she still seemed interested.  If it's a scam it's a wierd one and I'm not sure what's going on.  Is there a name this person gave anyone??

Caller asked if my car for sale was still available.  I said "yes" and she said her company has lined up several interested buyers in my area and they have pre-approved them for loans.  At this point I said "not interested, please don't call back" and hung up.

A caller from this number offered to get me (far) above the offering price of my car for an up-front $99 fee. Was I interested in kissing $99 goodbye? Nope.

Have had this number call 3 times, no one ever answers, I've tried waiting as much as a minute.

Got a call from these guys today.  I tried calling and no answer.  Funny thing is, it's also a number of a client of mine who calls daily.  I freaked out because my client's are criminals.

this companys fuhkin ******ed ... they try to make u give em money to sell yur vehicle , its a scam  ... they dont stop calling either..

We all must be selling a car, this number belongs to a company that tries to get you to pay a 99.00 fee to set you up with an over priced buyer for your car (thats listed in the paper or online). When I told the guy I was not paying a dime until he got the buyer to me, he hung up.Another scam that hit the other day is, an automated call saying you qualify for 6.9% on your credit card account. Its not your company, its a scam looking for your information. When I asked them for a company name or a phone number I could call them back on, they hung up.No company that is honest, is going to call you looking for a payment. THink about it, when is the last time you got a call from any company you deal with, that asks for personal information, and will not give you a return phone number? NeverCaller ID: 204-480-7651Caller: some auto sales scamCaller Type: Telemarketer

GREAT CARS & TRUCKS????

They called and then hung up when i answered.

Calls and when you answer there is no one there.  I've tried calling the number back but all I get a silence and then a busy signal

call: 204-985-1470It's some kind of fraud at work

Number is 204-985-1470

I get several calls from this number starting on 01 May and continuing.  I feel like I'm somehow being stalked from this number (they are trying to intercept my computer).  I feel this may be criminal and perhaps the Canadian Royal Mounties should be notified and catch these idiots!  At any rate, they are harassing all recieving these calls.

I get calls from this number almost every day... sometimes twice a day.  They never leave a message, and when I do answer, the caller just hangs up.  This is just stupid.  I'm about ready to drive all the way to Manitoba, Canada, just to smash their telephone.

Have received at least 10 calls from this number in the last two weeks.  No one is on the line when the phone is picked up and then I get a dial tone.  Can't anyone do anything about this????

I get repeated calls from this number almost daily.If I don't answer, they don't leave messages. If I do answer, they hang up.

I keep getting called from this number when looking up the number I found it was from Canada, I know NO ONE in Canada. When I try to call back it does nothing not even an automated message. Truely annoying when I am trying to work!

just did a quick look into this:Type: Land LineProvider: GT Group Telecom Services CorpLocation: Winnipeg, Mb, MBCan't find an answer as to what they're selling, but it is a telemarketing group.

I've been getting these annoying calls, too!  Looking at my caller ID, it's coming from Manitoba-- I don't know anyone there!  I get 1-3 of these calls nearly everyday and I too have tried to return them, only to get the "temporarily unavailable" message.

I've recieved a couple phone calls on my work cell from the last few days.When I answer, I get a recorded message that says, "All agents are currently unavailible."

I get these calls EVERYDAY, and when I pick up there is NOONE there.... As soon as there is an answer they (or it) is gone. I have an answering machine, and after the 4th ring it picks up and the "caller" disconnects. Not only do I get these calls every day, and at VARIOUS times... I get them 5 or more times a day. TRULY annoying!

received several calls from this caller. Missed all of them as I was away. Tried to call back but got a strange message: "The number you are calling is temporarily unavailable". I tried several hours later with the same result.
