Several calls have been made to my number. No message is left.

This is a call centre for the National Post. Under the 'do not call list' rules they are allowed to call. I called and was connected to an actual person within 30 seconds who removed me from their list and gave me a confirmation number as reference to the fact that I'd called and been removed. The person I spoke to was quick and very polite.

I too received a call from this number on Christmas eve. I live in Ontario, Canada

We usually don't answer these calls, but then they leave a long recorded message on the answerig machine. I decided to answer and get off their "call list". When I answered a recorded message from "Mr Parker" tells you to call him urgently by 4pm today and if he's not available his assistant will take the call. I called the number and was on hold forminutes before hanging up. I won't be answering again, but wish we could get these guys to stop clogging up our answering machine.

Text Message reads: "Do you owe over $10,000 to the IRS? IF you've employed, gov't program REDUCES BACK TAXES by 70 percent. Reply "IRS" for free, private consultation." You cannot call the number back to have your number removed. Isn't this illegal??>>>?>
