This number originates from Winnipeg Manitoba. They say they are Gov. of Canada Vital statistics. Since when do federal Gov agencies phone across Canada from Winnipeg rather than Ottawa? SCAM, SCAM, SCAM to get information about your phone number in order to pass it on to other telephone scammers. Alarm bells were ringing in my head like crazy when I finally hung up.
This number calls our house at least seven times a week… In regards to a letter from survey Canada that they sent to our house… Which does not exist… The gentleman on the other end of the line is more than rude every time I answer and I tell him he will not be able to talk to the person the letter was sent to… Although he can't confirm my address but wants me to confirm mine... Something seems fishy, just saying so glad that the CRTC has a no call list! We are on it, however I am truly sorry if it is really service Canada phoning us....which I know it is not, they don't usually ask for a credit card numbers
Clue yourself up on what the CRTC has to say about survey companies. They are exempt to certain aspects of the DNCL but, there are rules and regulations that they must follow. I would suggest you have a look here and see what you can find. There might be something there to help you. I know I stopped BBM from calling my by using the CRTC rules against them.
