Expert Opinion

Imagine your phone flashing with a call from +18445187852, only to hear dead air or a rushed sales pitch. Most reports describe silent rings, brief beeps, or callers claiming to be Telus reps asking for account details, credit checks, or upgrades. These hallmarks line up with classic phone‑scam tactics: impersonation, pressure to act, and no voicemail left. If you pick up, refuse to share personal info such as your SIN, credit card, or account numbers, and end the call immediately. Use your phone’s block feature, report the number to the FTC or your carrier, and verify any offers by calling the official Telus customer line you already have on file.
