(778) 785-4596

Nov 27 @12:06 p.m. called my landline at work, followed by a call to my cell phone at 12:16 p.m. No message left.

Same message as many many others about winning $2600 travel dollars. Press 1 now... Called my cell phone 3 times now while I have been at work.

I just want to know who called me.

several calls with **** ups usually around 3:30 last one 10/15/2009 there have een a total of 8 calls in the last month

called and told me I had won a certain amount of money, and to claim the prize to press 1, but i just ***g up

got this call on my pay-as-you-go Telus cell phone. No message left.

I picked up the phone to hear an automatic voice saying "You've won $2600 travel dollars, press 1 to claim you're prize." I just booked a vacation with Marlin Travel, I don't know if was them or a scam of some sort because no company name was identified! - On call back it was the same recording that was played.

Called me Oct14/09. Did not leave message

DO NOT CALL LIST

called my cell phone; I didn't answer and no message left; called number back from land line home phone and it told me that I won 2000 travel dollars and to press "1"; when I did that it didn't ring or do anything and after a few seconds the line disconnected. What kind of scam is this? Please do not call a***n and put my number on the DNC list. Thks

Hello, You have just won $2600 travel dollars.  Press 1 to verify.SPAM SCAM!!  Cost me $0.33 on my pre-paid plan.  Grrr...BC area code.

don't need more unwanted numbers calling me

on do not call list

Long distance call to cell phone -phone on do not call list

long distance call on cell phone

Calling me on my cell by computer - "hello you have won.....". Incredible that there is not a law a***nst companies who concuct this kind of telemarketting. It is imm**** and disrepectfull to someones privacy.I don't know how they got my phone number but it my business number and that really ****es me off, because now they are tou****g my bread, esp. if my number gets sold by them to another telemarketeer.

received a call on my cellphone from this number during class.  YES...+778 a BC Cellphone area code.  I was about to call it back good thing I checked here first.  I can't believe our cell numbers are now public.

I just got a call from this number. When I answered I just heard the Rogers tone twice and then the call disconnected.

got call too .. message said 'you have won travel points or discount or so****ing of $2600 or $2601, press 1 to claim'i just ***g up778 is cell prefix for BC someone is using cell phone, probably pre-paid, to do automated dialing.  but from people's reports above, nothing happens when you press 1.i suspect it is some scheme to test phone numbers for viability.  perhaps they get our numbers from some harvesting ****od, then test them to see if answered, if press 1 or not, and if answerer was male/female voice, detect accent if any, and to record what people say eg do they swear, or ask who is it etc.its a kind of intelligence gathering scheme.  prob can get some interesting demographic, marketing data doing this.it is borderline illegal though as it is calling 'do not call' numbers, and if the users could get their heads together, we might discover that the harvesting ****od is illegal or unethical too.

They have called both my cell and work phone which are unlisted #s at similar times on the same day.  Caller is likely to be good candidate for iden***y theft ring.

got a call from this number saying that i won some travel points if i press 1.definitely scammers.

Called me on my cell this afternoon. When I answered it, all I heard was the microsoft windows "shutdown music" play 3 times (***ody in the background talking) so I ***g up.

I got a call from this number too.so did my mom..same day.. about the same time

I got call from this # 778-785-4596... who is this , i go to ****a tonight

When I answered the computerized voice said I just won $260.00 and to press 1 to claim...  I waited on the line a few seconds (did NOT press 1) and the line disconnected...  Total SCAM!!!

got a call from the same number  on october 1st at 2:24 pm, and it rang once.i didn't answer it anyway, coz i didn't recognize the number, but i believe it's a scam too...if you don't recognize it, don't answer it.

yep, same number called me this afternoon; did not answer though. I'm actually from british columbia so i'm used to the 778 area codes, but this number came up all whack on my phone... i think it's a v.o.i.p line of some sort because usually when a 778 number comes up on my phone it comes up normally since i live in the area and have a 778 area code myself. I have had myself on the do-not-call list for a few months and have had no problems with any telemarketers until today. by the claims made by other posters regarding free vacations, my guess is that this company is making illegal calls since i'm not the only one who has recieved them while on the list, according to this forum. i'm finding out how to report this number..... i can't f***ing stand telemarkets, bunch of straight-up do***ebags. i always hate hearing them say "well i'm just doing my job, sir," because there's always the option of getting a job where you don't f***ing **** people off for a living. f*** 'em... -  end of rant. -

scam call

I got a call from 778-785-4596 on my cell.  It did come up that it was coming from British Columbia.  Did not answer, no message was left.

I just got a call from that number on my cell phone which is very strange cause I never get calls on my cell phone..... so I didn't answer it. I didn't get a voicemail either though.

1-778-785-4596 called my cell @ 743pm oct1/09so****ing about pressing 1 didnt get the whole mgsif i were u dont press 1 if u happen to actually pick it upI Googled area code 778 it's from BC, CAN lol

778-785-4596 just called me!  No message left, no caller i.d.  Who are they?

called my cell. didn't answer it. no message left.

pain in the but to get these calls on a pay as you go phone.

Call says I won 2600 travel dollars. Please press 1 to get it. Called into a private corporate cell number.

I'm on Do Not Call list - I'm Ontario - "Unknown" came up and this number was on my mail, but no message left.

I got the same message as Troy. I just ***g up once I'd heard the message, so never spoke to anyone directly.

The automated voice dialler said "Hello, you have just won 2672" travel dollars. Press 1 to claim." It seems like a scam. There isn't any indication of who the company is, unless I press 1 and wait to see who answers.

They called, but didn't leave any voicemail. I tried to cal it back and it was said to be an invalid number format.

Called. Went to voicemail, but left no message.

got a call from 778-785-4596 telling me in a recorded message that I'd just won 2600 travel dollars and that I should push 1 to claim them. I ***g up but checked for this message on the web and found that other callers have had this same call only from an Alberta source.  I too have added my cell phone number to the Ca***ian Do Not Call list but they've obviously found a way to cir***vent this.
