This phone number is tied to a satellite phone which is apparently being used in NIGERIA (not Canada as the number appears). It is being used to attempt to fraud unsuspecting victims in the USA and Canada using various International Lottery and other ADVANCE FEE scams (Commonly called 419 scams). One of the reasons this phone number is so difficult to get shut-off and/or reported is because it is a satellite phone that is nearly impossible to trace. I already knew this in advance and called the number pretending to be a old man trying to cash the bogus/forged check they sent me…and as soon as I told him the bank said the check was counterfeit he called me "a stupid American idiot" and hung up. Do yourself a favor, if you get a phone call from this number…tell the friendly Nigerian on the other end of the line to drop dead.
