I have been receiving calls from 416-000-1963 for days now. I don't answer as it seems like a bogus number. They're coming to my Bell cell, and never leave a message. Grrr...bothersome!
Got 2 calls from 416-000-1396 today about my factory warranty running out...I'm a rogers customer and this is one of the first time i've been hit by something like this.
These (416) 000-XXXX numbers are actually Spoofed Numbers. This is what I got from another website:
Spoofed Number: Caution, 416-000-3194 is a "spoofed" number, which means that whoever called you "tricked" your caller ID to display an incorrect phone number. Telemarketers do this so you cannot complain, but they failed... you can still file a complaint here to fight back against unethical telemarketers.
These people are calling from the US, not Canada. DO NOT ANSWER...your cell will be charged. I found a site with all the 416 complaints: http://www.callercomplaints.com/AreaCodeDetail.aspx?AreaCode=416
I've received calls on my Rogers cell from 416-000-1396 and 4160007954...both times leaving 2 second messages sounding like rap music or random dialing from someone walking on a street. I called back on landline and both numbers have an automated operator that says the number cannot be completed as dialed. How do I block these numbers?
As soon as I see the numbers '000' on my phone, I will not answer it. So annoying. I'd like to strangle the person responsible for doing this. I can't imagine that anyone would be stupid enough to listen to their bogus calls, and take them up on their scam offer.
