Got a call from "Regis" at Toronto Police Magazine selling advertising. He knew my business's name and asked for the owner. He described their distribution and wanted me to place an ad. I replied that his market was not my target market. He then suggested that I could support the police by placing a generic ad, something like "congratulations to the police". This started to sound like police extortion, and I knew that something was very wrong. I emphatically told him that I was not interested. After we hung up, I called the number shown on call display, and it was non-existent, i.e. this number. Definitely a scam.
