The call came from a payphone. Left a message (woman speaking in grave tones tells me I'm being sued by the IRS and to contact them immediately at 509 587 3082) After I finally stopped laughing I blocked the number. Glad I finally bought a phone system with robust call blocking capabilities. Can't imagine living without that utility. The DNC list is a joke and unlisted numbers no longer protect us from unwanted calls.
just got a call from this number (6:46pm, mississauga, ontario). no called ID name. i didn't pick up. it only rang twice and stopped, so it didn't go to my voicemail either. (my voicemail picks up after the 6th ring).
Received a call on a Saturday from someone claiming to be from "Microsoft" stating they had a report that my home computer had a virus that was broadcasting all my personal information. When I pressed for details on the report, the line went dead. Obviously a scam: 1. Microsoft doesn't call on Saturdays; 2. they wouldn't have someone call from India over a barely intelligible line for such a serious problem.
