Reports on phone number 9179798838
10 yearsThis number has been ringing me repeatedly, particularly during the late hours. I’m rather apprehensive about picking up, as I suspect it could be a scam or some unwanted sales pitch. It’s quite bothersome, to be honest. If anyone has any advice on how to put an end to this nuisance, I would be most grateful!10 yearsCould someone please help me out? I'm trying to figure out the identity and whereabouts linked to this particular phone number in Canada. Any assistance would be much appreciated!Canada10 yearsI've been getting repeated calls from that number 📱, and to be honest, it's really starting to get on my nerves. Each time they ring, I just end up cutting the line without saying a word. Honestly, what's their deal?10 yearsI've been getting these calls daily for the past fortnight, always around the same hour. I've chosen not to answer any of them, as I strongly suspect it's a scam.10 yearsI received a call this morning from an unknown number and it turns out it was from the Netherlands. The line was quite poor, and I was struggling to hear what the caller was saying, so I ultimately decided to cut the conversation short. After a quick search online about the number, I discovered that they were after my credit card details. Definitely sounds like a dodgy scam attempt!Netherlands10 yearsI just picked up this call... what should I do now? I'm feeling a bit anxious, to be honest.10 yearsHello there, it's Saleem Ahmed Cheema here. I've been facing some signal issues over in Jeddah. If you wish to reach out, I can share my Imo number, which is 00923328184541. Cheers!Saleem Ahmed CheemaJeddah10 yearsI'm curious to find out who’s been ringing my number.10 yearsI received a call today too, and they claimed they could provide me with a green card!10 yearsI received a phone call yesterday, but when I picked up, there was no response. Then they rang me again today, and as soon as I answered, they asked for my name. All I managed to reply was a simple "yep, that's me" before the call dropped unexpectedly! What on earth is going on? Is this some sort of scam? I’m definitely not answering again. Oh, and just so you know, I’m based in Mexico, which makes it all the more bizarre!Mexico10 yearsI received a call from this number earlier, and the caller seemed to know everything about me-my name, age, gender, and even details about my occupation. Then, just like that, the call dropped. I'm quite baffled and have no clue who this person is...10 yearsI've been receiving daily calls from this number, claiming to be from the Canadian embassy. However, I'm convinced it's a scam.10 yearsI received a call around 9 p.m. Egyptian time from someone who claimed to be from the Canadian embassy. Quite unusual, if you ask me!10 yearsI had a rather puzzling conversation with someone who inquired about my earnings, as well as details about my wife and children-specifically, how many we have. This individual claimed to represent Canadian immigration, suggesting he might get in touch again if all goes smoothly. Quite the unusual chat, to say the least!10 yearsI recently had a rather unsettling encounter with a company purporting to be the Canadian Visa Expert. They requested my credit card details for what seemed to be a dubious transaction on their shoddy website, canadianvisaexpert.com. The phone representatives claimed they had a global presence, suggesting their operators could be located anywhere from New York to London and even Spain! It felt like a ploy to siphon off personal information for nefarious purposes. Beware of this lot-they're clearly up to no good!New YorkLondonSpain10 yearsReceived a couple of calls from this number earlier today. Curiosity got the better of me, so I decided to look it up. Turns out, this is a scammer's number! It all clicked when I remembered I had applied for a visa to Canada recently.Canada10 yearsQuite unsettling, to say the least. I’ve been receiving calls from them more than two or three times daily!10 yearsHi there! How are you doing? Which country are you from, if you don’t mind me asking?10 yearsAbout three weeks back, I received a rather strange phone call shortly after I submitted my visa application for Canada, which I had seen advertised on a Yahoo news page. The ad read something to the effect of “Croatians, Canada is calling!” During the call, the person quizzed me about my educational background and pointed out that my profession was in short supply. They insisted I needed to cough up a grand-$1000-for the visa. When they asked if I could hand over that amount on the spot, I immediately replied in the negative, as I wasn't convinced by their claims. Thankfully, I've now realised that it was nothing more than a scam!CanadaYahoo10 yearsGave me a ring but didn’t bother to leave any message.10 yearsReceived a call from this number today as well. Initially, I let it ring out, but then they rang again, prompting me to answer since it showed up as a New York number. I've got mates there, so I thought it might be someone reaching out. However, it turned out to be the same story as others have mentioned... Would I fancy relocating to Canada? They wanted me to participate in an assessment. When they asked for my credit card information, I flat-out declined. That's when they got really aggressive. I inquired about why a New York number was linked to a Canadian assessment, and they claimed their primary office was in New York. After I consistently refused to share my details, they warned me that I would be marked as uncooperative and wouldn't be able to apply ever again. Soon after that, they abruptly ended the call. Very sketchy!New YorkCanada10 yearsThis is the second occasion I've received a call from this number, and each time I pick up, they promptly disconnect. Quite peculiar, isn't it?10 yearsThey presented an opportunity for a visa to Canada.Canada10 yearsI reckon they ring me at least a couple of times each day, without fail. To save yourself the hassle, my best tip is to dodge answering whenever you spot that dreaded number popping up. Trust me, that’s solid advice! Cheers!10 yearsI received a call from this number after I attempted to register for an assessment regarding Canada. I had a conversation with a lady by the name of Jasmine Johnson, who claimed she was calling from Canada. However, when I enquired about why the number showed up as being from New York, she informed me that both Canada and the United States share the same country code, which almost convinced me. She provided me with an application number, 157731288, and mentioned that I had successfully passed the assessment. The final topic of our discussion revolved around the payment for the assessment fee, where she requested my credit card details. Fortunately, I don’t possess one, so then she began asking for my bank account number, but sadly I don't have a debit card either. She suggested that I should apply for a debit card and stated she would call back later. After some reflection, I decided to look up this number and found numerous comments claiming it to be a scam.CanadaJasmine JohnsonNew YorkUnited States10 yearsApologies, but I haven't managed to get your mobile number yet. When you ring me, I'm usually at work, so I'm unable to chat. Would you be so kind as to share your details with me?10 yearsIndeed, they gave me a ring, and I introduced myself as Clara. When I requested to return their call, she flatly declined. I then inquired whether they could send me some details via email, to which she responded, much to my dismay, that they were unable to assist me. How frustrating!Clara10 yearsمن فضلك، هل يمكنك أن تخبرنى من أى دولة هذا الرقم؟10 yearsHello there! I've just received a call from this particular number, but I wasn't able to pick up at the time. Curiously, after the missed call, I decided to ring them back. Some blokes on the other end claimed they were inquiring about an Australian visa. To be honest, I suspect it's all a scam, especially since I received an email recently regarding a supposed Australian visa for working on a cruise liner, which turned out to be a hoax. So, I'd advise caution-don't put your trust in these people. Always check who’s reaching out to you, especially when it comes to matters like this!10 yearsI’m rather perplexed by this unfamiliar number that's been ringing me up. They’ve called me twice now-once during the day and then again in the dead of night. Quite unsettling, I must say!10 yearsI received a call from this number not too long ago, inquiring whether I had submitted an application to relocate to Canada, which, to be fair, I have indeed done a few months back.Canada10 yearsI received a call earlier today that was rather poor quality; the young lady on the other end couldn't quite hear me at all. I'm left wondering what this call was regarding and where it might have originated from!10 yearsThey've called me from that number thrice today.10 yearsI received a call at school from these blokes, and they mentioned they’d ring me again at four o’clock. I can't help but worry about the kind of bother they might bring my way.10 yearsThis number keeps ringing me multiple times each day, but I never bother to answer the call.10 yearsI received a phone call from someone inquiring whether I was the individual sharing my name. When I confirmed, they abruptly ended the call. Quite strange, really!10 yearsI received a call from this number earlier; I picked up, but after a mere three seconds of exchanging pleasantries, the line went dead. A few hours later, curious about the caller, I tried reaching out myself, only to have the same thing happen-hello, and then silence. Quite odd behaviour, if you ask me!10 yearsI received a call from that number earlier today, claiming to present a chance for work and residence in Australia. The caller gathered some of my details and mentioned he’d be in touch again soon.Australia11 yearsI'm currently in Italy and I've received three calls over the past three months. Each lasted around 25 seconds, but there was utter silence. What on earth could this signify?Italy11 yearsI reside in Malaysia, and this particular number has been ringing my phone repeatedly. I've chosen not to pick up the calls, as I fear it could be some kind of fraudulent activity, potentially causing issues with my phone bill, which I've heard whispers about. They persistently continue to call me, even up to now.Malaysia11 yearsReceived a call regarding employment and educational opportunities in Canada, which I found rather enticing, given that I submitted an application for a similar programme last year. However, it seems that she wasn't quite as clued up as one might hope...Canada11 yearsI received two calls from that number, with the caller prattling on about my employment and wages, going on and on about it.11 yearsI received a call from them, and they're requesting £3200 for their services.11 yearsAbsolute cheek! This joker rang me not once, but four times in the middle of the night while I was soothing my little one to sleep. He claimed to be from some dodgy visa application centre in Canada or something ludicrous like that! Honestly, she was asking if I fancied moving there, rambling on and on... What the heck?! And to top it off, the bloke could barely string a sentence together in proper English! Come on, mate! A smidgen of effort to sound convincing wouldn’t go amiss, would it?Canada11 yearsI received a rather dodgy phone call from a lady claiming that I was in the process of applying for a visa to either Australia or Canada. She began quizzing me about my employment and earnings, which struck me as rather suspicious. To top it all off, she had the audacity to ask for my debit card details. Naturally, I didn't share any information with her, as it felt like a scam to me. Just a heads-up for everyone to stay vigilant!AustraliaCanada11 yearsA colleague of mine mentioned that she received a call asking about me. Intrigued, I decided to ring them back using my own number to get to the bottom of it. When I inquired about the call, their response was bafflingly vague - they claimed they had no clue! Quite bizarre, if you ask me...11 yearsI received a call from this number, and I did pick up the phone. Just to share, I’m originally from South Africa, and my search is currently focused on finding a position in CNC, specifically with Lesley Ledwaba.South AfricaCNCLesley Ledwaba11 yearsI received a call from this number earlier today, and they inquired about some of my personal details as well as my credit card information. The conversation ended around half past one in the afternoon.11 yearsI received a call from someone claiming I had lodged an application for an Australian visa. I quickly refuted their assertion, and then they abruptly disconnected the call.11 yearsI received a phone call urging me to set up an account at a bank in Egypt and then to reapply for my travel plans to Canada. Quite unusual, isn't it?EgyptCanada11 yearsA chap rang my mate back home, claiming he’d won a lottery for a green card to move to the States. My mate was buzzing with excitement! Long story short, he ended up withdrawing £800 from his bank. Just a heads up for everyone - stay alert and don’t fall for these scams!States11 yearsHello there! I recently got a call from the number 1917978838. The individual on the other end was inquiring about my job experience and where I'm currently employed. He also probed into my rental situation and strangely suggested I apply for a visa costing R12,000. Just a heads up, be cautious with this number!11 yearsCould anyone clarify if this phone number is a scam related to immigration matters?11 yearsShe rang me up and wanted to know about my visa situation, and then proceeded to inquire more about my personal details as well.11 yearsI've received two calls from this number. I decided to answer, mainly out of curiosity about any potential impact on my accounts. I'm wondering, is it really secure to handle banking transactions online these days?11 yearsI received a call from this number, but when I answered it, there was utter silence on the line. Could this possibly be a scam?11 yearsI just had a rather unsettling phone call from this number; it’s quite alarming that the caller knows my name.11 yearsI received a phone call from some people who claimed they could secure a visa for Australia. However, they wanted me to fork out a hefty sum of $1,264. Seems rather dodgy to me!Australia11 yearsCould you kindly provide me with some advice on how to go about travelling?

Does anyone know who it belongs to?11 yearsI'm from Florence, Italy, and just yesterday, on the 17th of August 2015, I received a call from this number. I didn't pick up because I never answer to calls from unfamiliar numbers. However, today, on the 18th of August, I got another call at the same time - precisely at 12:30 PM Italian time!

Thank you!Mohammed11 yearsI find myself in a similar predicament with a website regarding Canadian visas. I tend to avoid answering calls altogether, but I'm quite fed up with receiving persistent calls from this particular number. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could put a stop to it?11 yearsI received a phone call earlier today where the person on the line requested my credit card details.11 yearsWhile I was at my workplace, I received a rather unsettling message that left me feeling quite uneasy.11 yearsI've been getting numerous calls from this number over the past few days, but it was only today that I decided to pick up. I was quite taken aback; they actually knew my name! Who on earth could this be?11 yearsHello, I’m Vera hailing from Indonesia! I've been receiving some rather suspicious phone calls from this number. A woman named Natalie introduced herself as an agent from the Canadian Immigration Centre. She probed me for my personal details, including my educational qualifications, work history, and current salary. To my astonishment, she even inquired about my credit card information, claiming it was needed for a registration fee. The calls typically come in between 7 and 10 PM Indonesian time, and I’ve noticed I’m getting called 2 or 3 times in succession. I must admit, I did share my email and phone number on a site that promised assistance with obtaining a visa for Canada. However, I can’t shake off the feeling that this might be some sort of scam, which is why I’ve stopped answering those calls. Would someone be able to advise me on whether this is genuine or not? I’d appreciate any insights. Thank you!VeraIndonesiaNatalieCanadian Immigration CentreCanada11 yearsI recently filled out an online express visa application for Canada, and I noticed that I missed a call from the number 001917979883.

I was quite gullible, to say the least. What on earth! Thankfully, I've gone over my limit and was already planning to cancel it soon.11 yearsI've chosen not to pick up their calls. They persist in ringing me nearly every day. Can you believe it'll be a whole month since they first reached out?12 yearsI recently got a call from this number, and I genuinely believed it was related to Canadian immigration. They seemed to know my name and asked me to verify my identity. I dutifully answered all their queries, thinking it was all above board, only for them to suddenly end the call! When I attempted to return the call, the person on the other end spoke a language I couldn't make head or tail of, and then they hung up once more. It’s left me quite anxious about the possibility of my personal information being misused. What steps should I take now?12 yearsI received a call from this number, but as soon as I answered, the line went dead. The caller merely inquired if my name was Vedrana. Curiosity got the better of me, so I ringed them back, and to my surprise, they started speaking in what sounded like Arabic before abruptly cutting the call. Quite bizarre, I must say!Vedrana12 yearsHello there! My name's Aras, and I’m currently residing in Kuredistan, Iraq. I've received two phone calls from this number, and I'm a bit curious. Can anyone tell me if this number is actually associated with immigration services? Cheers!ArasKuredistanIraq12 yearsI received a call from them too, trying to gauge my interest in relocating to Canada. The chat started off quite nicely, but towards the end, the chap began asking for my credit card details. That raised my suspicions, naturally, since any fees related to a visa application should be channeled through an official courier or a reputable bank, right? I've since added this number to my blocked contacts.Canada12 yearsIt seems that the so-called green card organisation isn’t to be relied upon. Proceed with caution!12 yearsI'm curious to find out who's on the other end of the line.Submit Your Own Report (0917 979 8838)
