Anybody get calls from this number and when you answer they hang up? I've been getting a ton of calls from this number over the past few weeks so I figured I'd found out who it is. I Google the telephone number and got a bunch of hits. One of which lead me to "2 the Point Global Marketing" and their telephone number (416-736-0699). Called them up to tell them to take me off their call-list. We'll see if they do.

they take you off the list and sell your number to all the other Telemarketers

 

I think their phones dial 12 numbers at a time and the guy picks up the first one that answers all the others hang up as soon as you pick it up

Just had one of those calls about 20 minutes ago; "congratulations you have been randomally selected to win a free trip....." Then the line went dead. Now I don't even know where I'm going or when but I'm sure they will call me back and let me know. I am so excited!!!!!!

A year or two ago, someone in some lab UofT (yay Google!) mistakenly punched my unlisted home number into a fax queue on a Friday afternoon, then left for the weekend. I tried calling UofT to tell them about the problem, but the office was closed until Monday, too.

 

After running to answer the phone half a dozen times, I finally called the operator for help. She told me that this happens every day, and there's a routine procedure to fix it. If I would just hang up and dial 611, they'd take down the #, fill out a form, and I wouldn't get any more calls. No charge. I took her up on it, and the calls stopped immediately.

 

I don't see much difference between those unattended spam diallers and an unattended fax. After the 3rd call, I ask 611 to get rid of them.

I never ever pick up the phone until after the answering machine answers for me. In an average week I win about 5 of them trips and have about 10 hangups.... one day I know I will cursing myself that one of those hangups was a million dollar win I missed... YEAH RIGHT.

 

I wish there was a way to get the phone number of the people who pay these people that bother me so I could return the favor, just before I leave for work at 1:30 am
