Bottom line: this number belongs to a debt‑collection agency that frequently violates polite outreach standards. Callers often claim to represent PRA Group or a related portfolio‑management firm and use aggressive scripts, sometimes asking for personal data like SIN numbers. Know your rights: you can request written verification, demand that they cease calls to your workplace, and send a certified cease‑and‑desist letter. Keep records of dates, times, and any recorded messages. If the calls persist, report the number to the Canadian Anti‑Fraud Centre or your provincial regulator. Blocking the number on your device also reduces nuisance.
They called and left a message with my name, but the birth date was incorrect, i dont think i will call them back
This number is frustrating as they harassment lasts about an hour, after which they won't call again. The following day, I attempted to call back, only to find that my number had been blocked.
To counter persistent calls, one approach is to call the number back with a fax tone ring, and if that fails, signing them up for junk emails may be an option, using email addresses such as scoffin@portoliomci.com, aszemenyei@portfoliomci.com, rbrunet@portfoliomci.com, and apage@portfoliomci.com.
A message was left for me under my maiden name, requesting a call back, but instead of responding, I searched the phone number online and found this site, which was fortunate
For the past two weeks, I've been recieving multiple calls from this number, at least twice daily, but I never answer and they never leave a message.
This peoples keep calling me at work, they say I'm a reference for sombody and need to talk about somthing urgent, I think its ilegal to call peoples at work
An automated call machine contacted me with a recorded message stating it wasn't a sales solicitation, but when a live caller came on, they refused to identify themselves or their purpose
My neighbor informed me that they received a call from a company claiming I had listed them as a reference, which is disturbing and potentially illegal
Aktiv Kapital Canada has been identified as the source of these calls
The call resulted in approximately 15 seconds of silence before disconnecting.
