Recorded voice says that as a reward for answering an internet survey, I had my choice of 3 prizes. I could press 1 to claim my prize or press 3 to be deteted. Wonder what would have happened if I pressed 2?!!
Just had this number show up on my call display and did not answer. According to what others are saying, if this is a survey, why on earth would anyone want my opinion given the fact that I live in another country? Weird. Just another scam!!
This is a fraud campaign currently active in Canada using a series of Iristel VOIP numbers. The objective is to obtain your credit card number and drain your account.
If you attempt to "opt out" your number will be confirmed as live and added to a suckers list for repeated future calls.
If this call came from area code "202", would you say that "This is a fraud campaign currently active in Washington, DC"? No, you wouldn't. VOIP calls can come from anywhere in the world, Nigeria for example. It's been stated on this forum that caller ID is becoming obsolete. The caller ID of any phone, anywhere in the world, can be faked. What you mean is that you received a phone call from a foreign, or domestic criminal.
