UGH! These 416-000 numbers have been calling me non stop all month!!

This is the Car Warranty Expiring scam.

I don't think its your car dealership. I have no car and I get these calls..the irony.

This number called me on my Bell line as it was simultaneously phoning my spouse on their Rogers line. What's up with that? We don't have any car warranties/loans, etc. (especially not with a Foreign-made car) so my guess is these mobile companies are selling our numbers to the US.

They called twice and left an automated message about the warranty on my car running out, the third time I talked to them, the offered me a deal where I pay so much a month for a year for an extended warranty, I think I have been had more info would be appreciated. Frankwallbank@hotmail.com

I have been getting these calls for a while, I never answer, but from some of the comments I think It's coming from some company associated with Toyota.  I bought a new Yarris in 07, and I am very frugal on who has my cell number, but I gave it to the dealership.  Lo and behold I start to get these calls, sometimes as many as 4 a day. Fast forward a few years and my brother buys a Toyota same dealership, now he get the exact same calls.
Now I wonder just how secure is my info personal information is with the Car dealerships

Have any of you bought a car within the last 2-3 years? I'm wondering if it's (in my case) the Mazda dealership giving this  pricks my number?

This number keeps calling me at least 4 times a week as well as 416-000-7954. I refuse to pick them up because they are unknown....

Same with me! 416-000-4497 and 416-000-7911 call me EVERY morning and evening and im going insane!

I get two calls EVERY SINGLE DAY from 416-000-XXXX. I never answer, but it is really irritating. This started a month ago and the two times I picked up it was for the car warranty scam. Please make it stop!!!

I have been getting these calls for about two weeks now. Always between 9 amd 10 in the morning. Weekdays when I am at work and weekends during my much needed sleep in time. When you call the number you get that it cant be reached from this area code. Whatever they are selling I am not buying EVER.........

What I've been trying with the "factory warranty" people is to tell them that I drive a 1998 Toyota Corolla with 327,000 kilometers on it.  For some reason they bail on the call after I tell them that; we'll see if they also flag me as "don't bother trying..."

These 416-000-XXXX numbers have been calling me every day for the past week!  Sometimes they'll leave a hang-up on my voicemail.

they've been calling me for weeks now every day! I never answer but this is getting really annoying!

I've gotten many calls from these people from the last week or so, so i finally picked up, got the factory warranty message, and afterwards, it gives you the choice of hitting 1 for an agent, or 2 to be removed from the "follow up"

I hit 2, and we'll see if i keep getting bugged.

I keep getting calls from this number as well.  Also from 2 or 3 different numbers that have the first same 6 digits with the last 4 varying i.e. 416-000-XXXX.

i dont answer these calls becuz I dont have recognize the number.. but they have called me like 500 times in 2days! its really starting to piss me off. someone somewhere needs to handle this situation

Tolerance.

This number keeps calling my cell every freaking day !!. I did not pick up since it was not a known number to me but it has become a harassment to me.

This call came through now for the 4th time!!!!

Can someone please track where this is coming from and lay a charge. I'd be happy to provide a witness statement. This sort of stuff is just blatent and should be stopped.

they called me on my  cell in the morning ... i answerd said hello they hung up
