This nimber is being used for the purpose of blackmailing men who use online dating/ meet up sights. The angle that is used unfolds as so. The alleged perpetrators are pretending to be a young adult misrepresenting their age. They will ask for your number, and if it is given, these persons will text you and send nude pics to your phone. The following day, you will recieve another text from this supposed minor's parent, telling you that you need to call them or they will turn you in to the ICAC. If you do not respond, the following day, you will get a call fron yet another number, and the person you speak with is an African American male, voice sounds to be as if he is between 35 and 50 yrs old, who claims to be Lt. Kenneth Bay, of the ICAC task force. He will then proceed to recap the text the alleged parents of this minor sent to you, and then threaten you with 1 to 15 years Federal Time for having s*xual communications w a minor via the internet. After the threat, then 'Lt. Kenneth Bay' will give you two options- take it to court, or talk to the parents to settle the matter w a Civil Litigation (which basically means they want money from you to not pursue criminal charges against you). If you agree to this, you will then get yet another call from another number from 'Lt. Bay'. He will keep you on hold, have three other African Americans (a man, a woman, and a young man), get on ahd have a three way conversation with you, attempting to make you feel as if you're some sort of sick pedophile because thier 'kid' contacted you and sent you nude pics. If you call any of these numbers back, they go to voicemail.... GOOGLE voicemail. Please don't fall for this. The area codes of the numbers these alleged scammers are currently using as of 03/31/2025 are 857 (alleged minor and parents) 844 and 843 (Lt. Bay).

The person calling from this number is a part of an entrapment scam. They pose as a Federal Agent, and attempt to extort money from people who use online dating sites by having someone pretend to be an underage person who misrepresents their age. They will obtain your phone number. Then, this alleged minor's father will reach out telling you to contact his family or they will turn you in to the ICAC. If you do not respond to the message that is sent from this number, the person in question then contacts you from the number being reported. If you call the number back, you'll get a completely different person's voicemail who, also, claims to be an agent with an assistant.

Whose Number Is This in Canada?

With impersonation fraud being one of the fastest-growing scam types in Canada, receiving calls from unknown numbers requires caution. Whether it's a missed call claiming to be from the CRA, a suspicious telemarketer, or an unknown number, our community-powered phone lookup service helps you identify who's calling before you pick up.

Our reverse phone lookup service allows Canadian users to search for phone numbers and access reports from other community members. By sharing experiences and reporting spam or scam calls, we create a safer telecommunications environment for everyone across all provinces and territories.

Common Spam Call Types
in Canada

  • CRA impersonation calls demanding tax payment
  • Grandparent/emergency scams asking for bail money
  • Service Canada scams about SIN numbers
  • RCMP impersonation calls threatening arrest

How to Identify Scam
Numbers

  • Caller claims urgency or threatens consequences
  • Requests personal info, PINs, or OTP codes
  • Offers that sound too good to be true
  • Unknown numbers calling repeatedly

Are Unknown Calls Always
Dangerous?

Not all unknown calls are harmful. Many legitimate callers include:

  • Delivery services confirming orders
  • Banks calling for legitimate verification
  • Healthcare providers and provincial services
Pro Tip
Register on the National Do Not Call List (DNCL) to reduce telemarketing calls. Canadian telecoms use STIR/SHAKEN to flag spoofed calls. The CRA never demands immediate payment by prepaid cards or threatens arrest. Report scams to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-495-8501.

Frequently Asked Question

Everything you need to know about phone number lookup in Canada

Enter the Canadian phone number in WhoseNo's search box. Our free reverse lookup searches millions of records to identify the caller, show carrier information (Rogers, Bell, Telus), display user reports, and reveal if the number has been reported as spam or scam.

Canada's country code is +1, shared with the USA under the NANP (North American Numbering Plan). Canadian numbers are formatted as +1 (XXX) XXX-XXXX, where XXX is the area code. For example, a Toronto number (416) 555-1234 becomes +1-416-555-1234 internationally.

Canadian phone numbers aren't assigned to specific carriers by prefix. Due to number portability, users can switch carriers while keeping their number. Our lookup tool queries carrier databases to identify the current service provider. Major carriers include Rogers (with Fido, Chatr), Bell (with Virgin Plus, Lucky Mobile), and Telus (with Koodo, Public Mobile).

Yes, WhoseNo provides completely free reverse phone lookup for all Canadian numbers including Rogers, Bell, Telus, and regional carrier mobiles, as well as landlines across all provinces and territories. No registration or payment is required.

Search the number on WhoseNo and submit a report describing the call. For serious fraud, report to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (CAFC) at 1-888-495-8501, file a complaint with the CRTC, or register on the National Do Not Call List (DNCL). You can also report to your phone carrier.

WhoseNo shows information that's publicly available or user-reported. This may include names from social media profiles, business registrations, or community reports. We don't have access to private telecom company databases or government records.

Common scams include CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) impersonation calls demanding immediate tax payment, grandparent/emergency scams pretending a family member needs bail money, CRTC/Do Not Call List registration scams, RCMP impersonation, bank fraud calls asking for OTPs, and Service Canada scams about SIN numbers.
