Expert Opinion

Recent complaints reveal a pattern of automated voicemails touting a COVID‑related survey that many recipients flag as a scam. Callers usually hang up after a brief click or prompt, leaving no real agent on the line. Do not engage with unfamiliar numbers, especially if they request personal data or press‑tone responses. Enable your phone’s spam‑blocking features, add the number to your carrier’s block list, and report persistent callers to the Canadian Anti‑Fraud Centre. If a call claims to be from a city hall or health agency, verify the contact through official websites before sharing anything. Treat any unsolicited survey request with skepticism.
