I had this number call me for weeks several times a day until I filed a complaint at my local police station. D. Purdy never called back! And, Yes, the guy is really located on Iberville st. in Montreal, the police went and met him.

this number just started calling me yesterday when it first called i answered and hung right up then called it back. nothing happened. hung up and about 10 seconds later it called back. then i was trying to sleep today and about once an hour this number would call, hopefully we can figure out what the heck is goin on.
Started getting these phone calls about a week ago. There is no one speaking from the other end, they just hang up when we answer. They never leave a message. My caller I.D. says Quebec. We looked up the number and found it belonged to T. Purdy, outside of Waco, Texas. I contacted Sprint to have this number blocked from my phone, but Sprint will not help me block the calls on my own. They directed me to Sprint Security where there was not a real person to take my call. The automated line told me that I had to have law enforcement call for me to block the number (and that it was a private number.) So I called the police department and they are giving me a case number so I can give it to Sprint Security. Why is it that with all of these posts, not one person can say what to do about it?! And Sprint cannot guarantee me that I am not getting charged for these calls. I feel Sprint needs to do more to help their customers.
Received several annoying phone call from 514-555-5555. Please Block any call from that Cell. Phone. Thanks.
i keep on getting calls from this # i don't answer and they never leave a message.. i need this number to stop calling me. its my cell phone that they call on
When I did a reverse lookup on whitepages.com for this number, it didn't come up in Quebec. It was D Purdy outside of Waco, Texas. I have no idea how or why this is occurring but its getting quite annoying.
this should be helpful, this person made contact with them.It is my opinion that this is a phishing expedition. My recommendation is do not give out financial information and here is why:Call came up as 514-555-5555 a number registered to Quebec, Canada.Man with mid-eastern accent approached me with same offer as above. He informed me he was with APEX Services operating out of Las Vegas when asked why his number showed up as Quebec he said it was because he was operating on an internet line. Not a very plausible answer as why would the phones be registered to Canada when the company HQ was in Vegas? There would be no reason to do so unless the company was dodging U.S. law or taxes.The phone number given by Mr. Matthew, 866-901-8966 is the company's customer help line (not very hard to do as anyone can get an 800 line for just a few dollars a month).The website given was wwww.apexserviceonline.com. When I went to the website it was obviously not the work of a professional denoting either a very poor company with a DITY webmaster or a fraudulent front. The website seemed to be devoted more to adds then to the company, another sign the business is probably illegitimate.The man gave his name first as Matthew and then as John Matthew ID # IT1614. When I spoke to his supervisor (also with a mid-eastern accent though less heavy) he gave his name as Steve Johnson. If you notice both first and last names are first names and when Matthew is a last name it is usually Matthews. Both names are also very common and it could be that two mid-eastern gentlemen immigrated and changed their names to common American names. But it does add to list of coincidences that point to fraud.Neither the company nor its website was listed with the Better Business Bureau and when I asked for the company address the men refused to give it to me (something no legitimate business would do). When Googled or when referenced on www.yellowpages.com I could find no references to the company, not even its website which is extremely odd to say the least as any legitimate company with a website is doing its best to promote it's company name and you can usually find at least a reference to it.When asked where they got my information Mr. Matthews claimed that they were an IT company and had gotten my information from a service they had installed for me. Later he claimed the company was allied with camera companies and travel services (notice the vague wording and no actual recognizable company names were used) which seems an odd branching for an IT services company.Then there was the matter of the shipping. It's true that sometimes companies do give away free stuff and then request that you pick it up or pay for it to be sent to you. However, in this case the amount was "fishy". First there was the matter of the flat rate fee of $1.95. If they refused to pay for shipment then why would their flat rate be so low? $2 might be enough to ship the camera short distances but according to their descriptions this company has a large sphere of influence and is conceivably shipping items around the states. If you go to any online business you will find that shipping and handling fees for small items usually ranges from $4.99 to $7.99 to cover employee time and the costs to ship anywhere in the U.S. $1.95 is simply too low a figure to be used for anything but a fraudulent ploy to get account information. Finally when I asked why I should give them my account number (needed for the check) when they could not give me any proof of legitimacy they claimed that it was ok because even with my account numbers they still could not withdraw money unless I went to the bank and confirmed the charge. In this day and age most of us know this is simply not true. With my name, address and the phone number they had already obtained (many companies sell consumer information to make a further profit off of you) and the account numbers they were trying to obtain from me they could have made off with as much money as I had in my account. Once they have those numbers the best you can do is do a stop payment but that is only if you catch them in time. Conclusion: Everything this company claimed (with the exception of a few "mis-statements" and contradictions) is theoretically in the realm of possibility, however, with all the unlikely coincidences and lack of proof to the opposite I would have to conclude that this is a complete scam. So STAY THE HELL AWAY.Caller ID: 514-555-5555Caller: APEX Services
