Received a call on my Call Answer in a nasal female US accented voice- "Press it now.  Congratulations!  You have just won a free all inclusive cruise to the Caribbean!  To claim your prize, simply press 9, that's the 9 key.  Press it now!"

Of course, I can't press anything because it's a message.  I call the number and it is either busy or dead air or a Bell Canada message that may or may not be for real "We're sorry.  Because of technical difficulties, we are unable to route your call. Please try your call again. 416-3"  Then the same message is repeated in French.  The message cycles through English and French twice more, then the line goes dead.  

Why does Bell Canada (if this is actually Bell and not some smart aleck's recording of a Bell message) not permit the call to go through?  Is Bell complicit -- directly or indirectly -- in this scam?

What does the number code mean?

Am in Toronto and this call originated from Montana - so Cdn DNC list is worthless - and you can not register a Cdn area code on the American list - I tried.

Anywayz......... Recorded msg.  You won a free trip - press 9. Just hung up. Will block this number if they call back - my phone lets me do this without using the Bell Canada service - which you need to pay for.

Calls originate in Bozeman, Montana...as with the other respondents, they seem to be targeting Atlantic Canada...This is the first time one has left a message to Dial 9...normally, when they hit a messagae centre, the call is terminated. My wife did take a call last week...same deal..Free Trip and then comes the invite to "confirm" your credit card or bank. I called both the BBB and Police in Bozeman...they were most helpful and pleased to get the tip.

Same as everyone else.... I'v won a trip.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

can't someone get their address?  spam them back with junk mail. I'd pay the postage to send all my junk mail (and then some) to them.

Just receive on march 29 before noon

My number is on the DNCL so I registered a complaint and also blocked them on my phone so they don't come through anymore.

No doubt! I get more than double the junk calls since I signed up for the do not call list! What a scam and I was prompted to do it by both the news and my telephone company! These calls should be illegal - but when you do complain half the time they say they can't do anything about overseas numbers or untraceable ones. How about this one?

Hey I just won the same trip.  I wish these "a" holes would grt whats coming to them ,namely a free trip to jail.
