You no doubt know that placing your name on the "Do Not Call List", or complaining to the CRTC, or the Police, or Phone busters is useless. As a matter of fact, the Telemarketers may well have gotten your number by buying a list from the "Do Not Call List" branch of the CRTC.
The authorities claim their hands are tied, because the harassing calls originate outside the country. Seems the authorities are more like enablers than enforcers, especially in view of the fact that CBC's Marketplace had no problem in tracing the scam to a Pakistan Call Centre!

As did others -

Calls come from Pakistan, 011-92-333-323-2940 Saeed Rasool Afridi, [email]saeed.rasool.afridi@gmail.com[/email]

here's an ad to hire more goons: [url]http://www.pakpositions.com/viewdetails.aspx?job_id=1565[/url]

Many victims offer advice on how to "get even" by blowing loud whistles or air horns into the phone, or wasting the callers time. This usually backfires, because the harasser only increases the frequency of the calls, knowing that short of changing your phone number (at YOUR expense) you are helpless, since authorities do nothing.
What has been suggested, and tried, is actually making an appointment, and then telling the scum that arrive to leave, or having the Police waiting for the fraudsters, which was done in Ottawa, and only resulted in dismissal from charges. Makes one wonder whose side are the Police are on. You might even find yourself on the receiving end of a lawsuit for wasting the Duct Cleaner's time! Isn't it an eye opener when the law will protect these scum, but not the victims.

Rather than try ineffective tactics against the Pakistani Call Center scum, which is hopeless, and only invites increased harrassment, or booking appointments and then cancelling or refusing entry, which risks revenge since they know your address, try the Following.
On a Website such as Kijiji, or Craig's List, or just Google for Duct Cleaning, or Duct Cleaners. Look for cheap prices, around $100 or less, these are probably scammers. (Legitimate Duct Cleaning costs in the neighbourhood of $300). Note down the phone numbers of the low price baiters.

Now, go to a Website called http://www.prankcall.ca/

There, you can make unlimited Prank calls. Simply enter the phone number of the "Duct Cleaner" (Haha!), and then, in the message section, something along the lines of "Hi this is Caroline from Credit Card Services. You can save big time on interest rates on your Visa or Master Card. Press 1 now to speak to a representative..." If you've been harasses by telemarketers, you probably know "Credit Card Services" too!
Since it is the Duct Cleaning scammers who are hiring the harrassers in Pakistan, you will be returning the favour to the source. And, it will be untraceable to you, so, rather then YOU inviting increased harrassment on yourself, you will be giving the scum a taste of their own medicine. And having fun while you are doing it. Just DON'T put any threats in the message (unless it's a threat to contact authorities, which, as we know, is a waste of time anymway. Remeber whose side they are on!) But call OFTEN!
Another avenue is to use Prank Dial, but it has limited free calls, and doesn't allow you to put in your own messages.

Opening
Hi, my name is __________, I am calling you from United Home Services, and how are you doing today?
Well, Sir / Ma?am, the reason of my call is to let you know that we are running a great promotion in your area with a 50% discount for your Air Duct Cleaning Service.
So Ma?am / sir, if you want I can just tell you the prices and then you can go ahead and make your decision.
In order to tell you the exact prices I need to know the square feet area of your house.
Is it less than 2000 or more than 2000?
So Ma?am / Sir, for your less than 2000 sq ft, we will just charge you $99 plus GST. In this price we are offering you free inspection services of your AC, Heater and Furnace.
Along with that we will spray a high pressure sanitizer in your duct system for free which will kill all the bacteria and all the insects in it.
I will just book an appointment for my technician on a day suitable to you. So hold on and I?ll transfer this call to my supervisor.
Procedure
2 Technicians will come to your doorstep with a truck and a vacuum machine. They will plug the vacuum in your main vent that will suck all the sticky dust into our dust drums into our truck.
Also for your confirmation you can check our dust drums and see how much dust we sucked.
After that we will spray the sanitizer in all of your vents. Doesn?t matter how many they are.
Then the technician will inspect all your ACs, Furnaces and Heaters. Doesn?t matter how many you have.
And yeah our technicians are very clean, they will take off their shoes at the door step & they won?t allow your house to get filled with dust during the service.
It will take around 45 minutes to an hour.
Thanks,

Same old relentless duct cleaning company that calls themselves Metro Home Services.  But when you call Metro Home Services to complain the poor man says it's not his company and that people are calling him and yelling at him... I actually feel sorry for the guy because the air duct company is using his company name.
They typically call 4 to 5 times a week; I constantly ask them to remove my name from their mailing list.

Today I booked an appointment and will have my camera ready when they show up to take their picture and picture of the license plate to formally lodge a complaint with the police.

I have basically been harassed into making this appointment to get them off of my back and I am going to make sure the police know about it.

Consider turning the tables on these ruthless people... make an appointment and get your camera ready!
