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.
The advertisement pitch was overly aggressive and intrusive.
Scam attempt, they asked for a credit card number to 'verify' my account. Definitely a fraud.
Another fake claim about a debt you don’t owe. Looks like a typical scam call to me.
The caller was pushing a product I never asked for and sounded like a typical ad line. Probably just advertising.
Another scam number trying to sell a too-good-to-be-true deal.
Un appel silencieux a été reçu.
Spam
Two days earlier, I received a call from my heritage about a subscription for my account; the representative was very pushy, so I accepted a plan but never paid. He later emailed the plan details. Today, a call came from a Quebec number; the call ended before I could answer, leaving a voicemail that sounded authentic, yet I suspect it’s a scam, and I blocked the number.
Voicemail was left.
Looks like a classic scam attempt; I hung up as soon as they asked for personal info.
Got a generic marketing call that offered nothing useful.
C'était un appel silencieux.
They pretended to be from my bank asking for verification codes. Scam artists trying to steal info—report and ignore these calls.
Scammers operating out of London
This caller left a voicemail about an unrelated survey or something vague. It wasn't aggressive, but I blocked it anyway. Felt like miscellaneous junk.
I received a call from this number offering financial services, but it felt a bit pushy. They kept asking for my account details without proper verification. Not sure if it's legit, but I'd be cautious.

FAQ — Canada
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.
Do area codes prove location?
Not reliably. Portability and VoIP mean area codes (e.g., 416, 514, 604, 905, 780) are not a trustworthy location signal. Evaluate content, timing and patterns.
What patterns are common?
Delivery notices, bank callbacks, verification codes, but also tax/customs phishing, fake support hotlines and aggressive sales calls.
How can I protect myself?
Block repeats on your device, use carrier filters, don’t respond to pressure, and add a short, factual experience here to help others.
