Phone number reputation in Canada
Unsure about a Canadian number? Here you’ll find fresh community reports and practical tips for what to watch out for. Canada sees both legitimate callbacks from banks, couriers and agencies, as well as phishing related to taxes, customs or supposed delivery notices. In metropolitan areas like Toronto, Montréal, Vancouver, Calgary or Ottawa, mixed patterns are common. Important: area codes (e.g., 416, 905, 514, 604, 780) are not reliable location proof due to portability and VoIP — judge content and context, not just the digits.
Best practice: call back via the official number listed on the provider’s website/app, check in‑app notices and never share one‑time codes by phone. If you encounter recurring issues, document them and use your device/carrier blocking tools (Rogers, Bell, Telus). Short, factual notes here help others decide faster.

Another scam attempt, vague story and a fake urgency. I blocked the number right away.
Promotional telemarketing call.
Questo numero è stato usato per prendere possesso di un account Instagram tramite phishing. Il profilo è stato hackerato e usato per promuovere truffe crypto. Nessun contatto reale con questa persona. Probabilmente è un numero VOIP usa e getta, lol

How do I verify legitimate calls in Canada?
Call back via the official number from the company’s website/app. Don’t share 2FA codes. Check in‑app notices and verify ticket IDs over a separate channel.

Delivery notices, bank callbacks, verification codes, but also tax/customs phishing, fake support hotlines and aggressive sales calls.

Block repeats on your device, use carrier filters, don’t respond to pressure, and add a short, factual experience here to help others.
