Numbers with this prefix were first introduced in 2006.
While 6136272802 was originally issued with the info above, the owner of the phone number (613) 627-2802 may have transferred it through a process called porting.Caller type: Scammer/Fraudster
I've received a call from this number twice with no message left. I don't answer my phone if I don't know the number. I have since blocked it. I too made a donation to Fort McMurray via text message. So I assume this person with a landline in Ottawa has somehow obtained a list of numbers from those who made by text donation. If it feels suspicious, then it probably is.

Received call from this number and it was from Red Cross. Called about a recent donation made to Fort McMurray and the guy kept taking and talking until i stopped him and told him I am not interested in donating more and hung up! Was a very odd call....

Was asking about $300 Cad donation for BC Fire. She identified herself as Canadian Red Cross. I wonder how she knew my name and phone number. I did not trust the caller and provide any detail.

Called claiming to be from Red Cross thanking me for my recent text donation. Said because I had made a text donation they didnt have any info and wanted to know my name and address. Sounded like a scam. I said I wasnt comfortable giving my name and he hung up.
Caller type: Unknown
Several times been called from this no. Caller hangs up as soon as he/she/it hears my voice. Sounds like a scam. Beware!
Aeems like others have been asked for money from this particular phone no:

Asked for me by name.Caller identified himself as Chad and claimed he represented the Canadian Red Cross. Thanked me for my "generous donation last year". Referred to the current wildfire situation in BC. then requested if I would make a one-time donation of $300.00 to assist with evacues. I explained that I had received a legit Red Cross mail request (not asking for such an exorbitant amount) and do not commit to donating by telephone because of scammers, which I suspected that this call was. The individual hung up.

I recently made a donation to the Red Cross in aid of the BC Fires and now I have been called twice. Answered once and no one was there. Didn't answer the 2nd time. If It is the Red Cross you can be sure I will never make another donation to them on line.
I am also on the DNC register.

From reading these comments I assume the call I missed, from this number, was a scam of some sort. Could it be because I had just made a donation on-line? Very strange.

Scam: woman pretending representing Red Cross. When I donate to Red Cross or to any other institution, I never leave my phone #. I Asked how she got my name and number and she answered that it is based on previous donation I made. I knew it is a scam, but still I asked her politely to remove my number from their list. She said she will make a note and comply, but I am sure that they will keep trying to call me on this number.

First call from this number. Claimed to be from Red Cross. She appreciated my previous donation and would I like to make a one time donation if $20. She was not Canadian because if she was she would have been able to pronounce my surname properly. It's a scam. # will be blocked.

Calling every day. I picked up, didn't say anything. 10 seconds later, I could hear ambient sounds and a voice asked "Hello? Hello?" I ignored it and they hung up. Probably a telemarketer or fundraiser.

Wanted to talk for a few minutes about helping Red
Cross again. Last time they called I asked to be removed from their call list - they mail out monthly at least and now bother me on the phone! One more call and I shall re-direct my donations elsewhere.
Red Cross - please STOP giving doner information to telemarketers.

I get calls from this number several times a day, at all times of the day and on the weekends. I ignored the calls at first, but once I began to answer the calls, they got disconnected immediately. I called the number back and it just sends me to Red Cross but never connects to a live person.

I donated to BC wild fire online, not Fort Mcmurray one via text but I get the same almost every day.
I donated for a good cause, not to be a spam target.. It's sad. I'm disappointed with RedCross

We do not answer numbers we do not recognize; we trust people will leave a message if important. We never get a message from the calls from this number and they call too often. Give up already!!
