Unknown numbers ring phones across Canada every day. Some are telemarketers and robocalls, some are scams pretending to be your bank, a delivery company or the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), and some are real - your doctor's office, a delivery driver or a company you do business with. It helps to know which one it is before you answer or call back.
Canada Phone Check collects reports from people who have already gotten a call from a number. Enter the number above to see their comments, ratings and the type of call - telemarketing, scam, robocall, silent call or a real business.
If an unknown number just called you, add a short report. It takes a minute and helps the next person decide whether to pick up.

A calm voice says your account is under attack and asks you to help catch a dishonest employee. This is the "bank investigator" call, one of the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre's top 10 frauds for 2025. We walk through the script, explain why it works on careful people, and give one rule that beats every red-flag list.
The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre published its top 10 frauds for 2025, sorted twice: by number of reports and by dollars lost. We go through the figures, show why the two lists describe different problems, and say plainly what the data cannot tell you about phone fraud.
