They have record profits off of us. Well the debt is unscured so I will not be paying anything at all.

Continuous calling... No one answers.
I no longer answer calls from 800 numbers

This is definitely a scam. I have RBC accounts and they are all paid, so they would have no reason to call me. I was in to see my accounts manager the last week. You would think if there is a problem, he would have told me.

They also used 1-905-715-7399 to do collection calls and threats. These are collection groups that buys old debts in droves, and then spends their time badgering people for money.

They have also used 1423, 1411, 1410, 1409, 1406. Go to this link as it has the most complaints with regards to pretending to be RBC collections and PHISHING for information.

It is for the 1406 version of this number

I have also been called by this number, but I never answered the call. I did a number check over the internet and came across several responses to this number and similar numbers to 855 - 560 - 14xx.
I contacted RBC directly and this is the information given to me by an RBC manager:
1. This is not one of their numbers. RBC numbers are posted on their website.
2. They do use automated messaging and the automated message will leave a message on your voice mail.
3. RBC uses 1 - 800 - xxx - xxxx numbers not 1 - 855 - xxx - xxxx
They also provided the following information:
Your reporting of these fraudulent calls are important, and we would kindly ask that you contact the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (CAFC) to report these calls by one of the following methods:
· phone at:
- 1-888-495-8501 (Toll Free)
- 1-705-495-8501 (Overseas and Local)
· fax at 1-888-654-9426 (Toll Free)
· mail at Box 686, North Bay, Ontario, P1B 8J8
· email at info@antifraudcentre.ca.
After reading several blogs on various websites, the suspicious numbers use variations of:
855 - 560 - 14xx
Be vigalent and never give personal information out to anyone. If you are not sure, then contact your bank through a known number and check.to see if the number is legitimate. If you talk to a live person on the other end then try to get as much information as possible such as full name (get them to spell it out), a return contact number, employee number, where they are calling from (city, province/state, country, street address, email information, etc.) Tell them you will call back, then check with your bank. If information does not match up, contact the authorities.
SCAM's come in all types, check out what happened with yahoo when the email system got hacked.
I have pursued this further.
I contacted Telus, my service provider. They said there is nothing they can do to prevent incoming calls.
The only way to charge the "Fraudster" is if the "SCAMMER" lives in Canada. Most often the calls are generated from overseas and there is no way to charge and prosecute.
Telus suggested searching "Phonebusters RCMP" on google which brings you to the government website as posted in my previous message. I have already sent a message to this department.
After reading posts on this and other forums, the SCAM is to badger people into paying a "False Debt". Some people have paid this "False Debt" in installments, only to realize the company they paid to was non-existant.
These "SCAMMERS" are relentless and act like a collections officer. They will call relentlessly until they get their "Victims" to give in.
1. DO NOT GIVE IN.
2. If they call and you answer, then obtain all their information as stated in my previous message.
3. Google Search "RCMP Phonebuster". Report to the phone fraud investigation unit. I am sure their is a similar site for the residents of the USA.
Do not believe any post claiming to be an RBC rep/employee on these forums.
I have also tracked this number to Bell Canada and an unknown US host provider.

THE ROYAL BANK HAS BEEN USING THIS NUMBER FOR THERE COLLECTIONS.

For over a month we have been receiving calls from this number. There is no identifying name with it. I have answered the phone 4 times and there is never any one there. They never leave a message. The calls start shortly after 8 AM and continue 1 to 2 times more throughout the day. This morning I picked up the phone without looking at the number and there was no one there so I hung up. A few minutes later the phone rang again and it was the same number.
I called our phone service provider and there is nothing we can do to block this number without upgrading our service package at a cost of $20 per month ($240 a year)
