Thanks buddy. I have been getting calls from a 1-800 number for the last few weeks, but I have not picked up. Sometimes it was twice a day, but now its been a few days...

Either way, thanks for the tip dude.

NP dude, these telemarketing dudes w/ their auto dail BS really gotta stop. Someone on some board got the RCMP to monitor his line w/ all these heavy equipment to trace this number.

It has a pre-recorded voice stating you won $2600 travellers cheques, push 1 to speak to a CSR and 3 to remove your number.

Someone said pushing 1 will bill you some fee or some sort, don't know if it's true or not ... lets not take the chance and push 3 does nothing.

It doesn't leave you a VM and when you try calling it back, it says the number is not in use

There's an application for Symbian S60 phones that blows up the phone on the other end, too bad you iPhone and BB users can't take advantage of that

Ok. So if you ever get a call saying something about travel dollars the company that's spamming you with phone calls is based out of Cancun, Mexico. The company's name is PREMIER CANCUN VACATIONS. They are using an auto-dialer and are spoofing various Canadian and US phone numbers. If you wish to give them a piece of your mind their website is: http://premiercancunvacations.com/ and the company that does their website is: http://www.brand-tango.com/. Caller ID: 403-939-0808 Caller: PREMIER CANCUN VACATIONS Caller Type: Telemarketer
