Just got a call from them.  Apparently they are conducting a survey to those how have received OSAP in the past

I never answered....

they leave a message saying about some survey noize....

in reality, they are trying to get you to call or answer and then they have you if you havn't paid any or have missed payments on your osap....

its a trick

They left 2 messages on my phone. One was about when some lady likes doing laundry, the other was just background noise.

How do you get charged LD for answering a call??

I just got a call from this number. I didn't pick up because I didn't recognize the number and from the messages above I am glad I didn't.

An Ontario number calling a business on  a Saturday @ 4:32 pm.
Guess they can't tell the time or know what day of the week it is back east LOL, left no message

Just got a call from this number. Called it back and they answered " R.A. Malatest & associates". Time for google.

They do surveys for different things, mostly contracted out by government, they do surveys for OSAP, OPP and stuff like that.

Got the call, she said she was conducting a survey. My time is too important to do other peoples work, so I told her to send me th esurvey via email. It never came!

Got a call from this number asking for unknown person, what is this number and why they call peoples?

A new Origin-Destination survey takes place in the National Capital Region this fall. It will provide transportation planners with data on daily trip patterns in rural areas, growing suburbs, mature neighbourhoods and downtown areas alike.

From September to November 2011, professional phone interviewers will collect information from 25,000 randomly selected households, a five per cent sample of the population.

If you receive a call you will see the words Origin-Destination in the telephone call display. Please participate. For more detailed information visit O-Dsurvey.ca or phone 613-688-5050.

From the above comments it seems to be a company conducting surveys?........possibly due to the upcoming election?

Called at 8:05 pm on a Friday night. Did not answer as I know no one by the name RA Malatest. Apparently a fake survey. Now blocking number.
