same deal, something about bonus points or dollars.. i thought it said telus but it could have been zellers. obviously it's neither of those companies and just some scammer. they may be spoofing the callerid # as well.
I just got a call from this number (to my cell phone, which is on the Do Not Call registry!) and it was an automated message that said something like (couldn't hear the beginning, as it was already playing when I answered) "... Zellers customer, you have won 3,000 travel dollars. To accept press 1." Instead I pressed "End". I have never given my number to Zellers... I don't shop at Zellers... I think Zellers is breaking Federal Law by hiring (or owning / using) an automated telemarketing service that calls numbers on the Do Not Call Registry.
In fact, I'm even less inclined to ever go to Zellers or HSBC / The Bay now. Congrats HSBC and Zellers. That's what your marketing money got you... a pissed-off anti-customer.
Received a call from this number on my cellular phone. I returned the call from my office phone which says the number is out of service or not available.
the muffled message on my cell says I am a valued Zellers customer and to redeem 3000 zellers points press 1.
The area code is from BC and HBC H/O is located in the GTA and all call centres would be listed as 1-800 or unlisted. Furthermore I have never given my celllular number to them neither have I used this card in about 8 years.
Be vary wary about this as they are scammers phishing for information. THey will ask for your address, to confirm passwords (most people use similar passwords for all accounts) Once they have this information they will try to access everything they can.
THere are also a few mortgage fraud calls going around as well.
GIVE THEM NO INFORMATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Especially who you bank with!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
