Looks like they were indeed shut down by police: http://www.thewhig.com/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=3334538

Child Safety Alert called a dear friend of mine who is legally blind and over 85 yrs old.  He gave her the old story about helping kids and told her she had promised them $100 back in June but the credit card number she had given them had a mistake in it.  I happened to be there when the call came and told the guy no way are we giving you a credit card number.  He got very irate with me at which time I hung up.  He then called right back and my friend picked it up and he talked her into making me give him the credit card number.  Can you believe the gall???  The $100 was charged to her credit card and thankfully it wasn't more than that.  My friend promises not to give her credit card number over the phone but I sure wish the powers that be could shut this down for good.

I have received many calls from this person only to be hung up on or they only wish to speak to my husband.I had another call tonight.I answered it in hopes of finding out who they are.The lady named Cindy said that they are fundraising for Child safety Alert(There old Name) now called Safe and Sound and they are looking for donations for a magazine called Safe and Sound.Naturally I declined.I asked who Travis Spanke is and she got quiet then said she didn't know but said that this was a legit fundraiser and would I give her my mailing info so she could send me an invoice for a donation and a copy of the magazine.I naturally said no.I have tried to find out more information on the internet about this but there is little available.There is a website for the magazine called safe and Sound but little information.

This # called me twice.

We have been getting calls from this number as many as two times a day.  We never answer it.  I did a reverse lookup in telus ( http://mytelus.canada411.ca/search/reverse.html ).   This is who seems to be registered to the number:

Travis Spanke
(403) 444-0849
AB

Just reported this to CTV and will call the police tomorrow.

I received this call and the fellow was extremely smooth.   I never give my Visa number over the phone, but because he went on about this drug and that they needed donations for publications I fell for it. Apparently Strawberry Quick (the drug he informed me about has been a scandal for 4 years).   I will be reporting it also to the police and the news station.  

This scam really is the bottom feeders of society.   No one wants to see their kids get mixed up with meth by someone selling their child candy.   I want to bring these guys down as much as everyone else in our community.

This number has been phoning everyday for about two weeks.  There appears to be know one on the other end. They always seem to hang up.

We are also in Calgary and are getting two calls a day from this number.  The has been a male and a female and they ramble incoherently about kids being given some raspberry lollipop laced with meth and needing money to expose this through pamphlets.  We are reporting this to police.

This phone number calls our home at least once a day !  When we answer there is no-one on the other end.  It hangs up before it goes to message.  We have no idea who this is.  If we return the call to this number we get a message to dial an internal extension if we know the number or dial "0" for an operator, when one dials "0" we are then told the mailbox is full.   This is extremely annoying and should be banned.
