collection agency using an unidentified number
Date: Tue, 10/30/2012 - 17:40
Hello, I just had an incoming call come in from a collection agency, using an unidentified number (unknown name, unknown number), I answered it because we have a few friends that have unidentified numbers, so it is just a habit to answer it. Well, the lady on the other end was asking for my Fiance, so I asked what the call was about, and she wouldn't tell me anything, not to mention she started getting nasty with me, so I told her that I will not pass this message on to her then hung up on her. What can I do if this company calls again? Can I report this as a harrassing call. Is there any agency in Canada that deals with agencies like these? Thank you.

The CA did nothing wrong....by law you are nobody, just someone being nosey. They cannot disclose information to a third party and since you are not married to her, they followed the law. I suspect you probably got rude with them since you had to tell them that you would not pass the information to her because the would not tell you why they were calling.
Give her the message and butt out.
