Expert Opinion
Check the caller ID against official City of Ottawa listings before returning the call. Many residents report that this number is the municipal switchboard, yet scammers often spoof it to appear legitimate. If the call asks for personal data, passwords, or payment, hang up and verify through the city’s website or a known contact number. Keep a record of the call time and any reference numbers. Use call‑blocking apps to filter unknown numbers, and consider reporting suspicious activity to the Ottawa Police Service. When in doubt, let the call go to voicemail and review the message before responding.
