They use a reverse directory thats how they get your phone number...and it certainly is a SCAM.....I contacted TD Visa and they have verified this for me...DO NOT GIVE ANY INFO OVER THE PHONE WHEN YOU GET AN UNSOLICITED CALL......I TOLD THEM I WOULD CHECK WITH TD VISA AND HUNG UP...
AND YOU ALL SHOULD DO THE SAME.......
Caller claimed to be from Bell Telephone offering to free me from cable TV - spoke rather poor English but worse ... radio or TV competing in background.
Pity I hadn't realized the area code of 213 was California or I would have challenged the caller to explain!
Got a call tonight. Girl claimed she was from the Conservative Party of Canada and was calling on behalf of my local MP and would I support him if there was an election. She seemed to want to very rushed. Very odd

This number called me an there was no one there when I answered. I called the number back and it was a number for ADT. They said it was someone who was useing their caller id number but not from their company. Said there was nothing they could do for me to stop the calls! Frustrating!!!
It was a guy who spoke very very poor english in a very strong mideaster accent who said he was calling for Bell Mobility and could offer a free phone and something else I couldnt understand(he repeated it 3x).
