I stumble upon this website. I got the call at 11:15 a.m. They are now calling Sudbury, Ontario. Our number is unlisted and they are persistent. They ought to pass a law to ban these jerks. Please always remember.. if you didn't enter a contest they you didn't win. When will people stop thinking they can get something for free... There is no such thing. Everything comes with a price.
St John's, Newfoundland. Phone rang at 4pm with an automated message claiming I had won a free vacation and to press 9. I just kept the phone to my ear for a few minutes to drive up their phone bill until they disconnected.
I just received a call this afternoon. There was no ID displayed as I was using the line for internet access (I live in the sticks!). So, they immediately received my voice mail and the message left was a quick hang up. I suspect they'll keep trying until they reach me.
They're in Calgary now. They have tried twice to contact me, but I didn't recognize the number and just let it go into voice mail, which they hung up on.
I just googled it, and came up with this site, explaining the scam. Thanks all for posting. The next time, I must just use a whistle to keep them from hassling me.
