I am in Montreal and get these calls! Gosh, don't they have enough numbers to call in the US that they are harassing Canadians. I don't even answer unknown numbers. Whoever it is, is not worth answering.
I received a call from this 208 Idaho area code...from a very rude ad salesman named Rony Safran plugging some unknown Montreal Jewish Magazine On-Linem, when I asked why my call showed it was fro Idaho he gave me a lame excuse about being overseas and routing his calls via an American calling card or some other way off base lie...aggressive, hard sell...when I wouldn't buy right away he then told me he had no more space and it was "my loss". HE was the one who CALLED ME. Will never buy anything from this on-line rag....there is always space to put an ad on-line, I know, I have a web-site, he was just trying the old back-room hussle. I wrote to the person listed as his boss and no response, which tells me a lot about what this operation is about. I thought Les Pinsky was dead.
calls every day, leaves no message and doesn't say anything when I answer. Very annoying. I reported it ti the do not call list authorities In Canada. The only new credit card I recently got, which very much coincides with the beginning of the calls from this number was a Capital One MasterCard card. Coincidence? Probably not.
I am in Gatineau QC
