    No, I have not but I am likely not in the same city as you. I would at least be reporting that to the police just as a safety measure. The police likely won't do anything but make a note of it when you call bu if enough providers get these calls and report them the police might actually try to track down the caller etc.

    I know almost ALL sexually inappropriate behaviour with regard to adults harming children is of an escalating nature. The police are always interested in knowing if there are creepos out there because they realize that something just harassing right now could escalate into physical contact later.

    Not here but in the past whenever I had a listing on craig's list I used to get weird emails and strange requests. If you are listed there you might want to take your ad down for awhile hoping the person was just moving ad to ad and not actually writing down any of the numbers they called. I agree it might be a good idea to give a report to the police in case there have been other reports as it would allow them to track if it is a particular area, street or common source for numbers.

    What was he asking? Were they just weird questions, or actually inappropriate?

    I don't want to give details due to the fact that anyone can view this forum. It's scary and I wish there were a more secure forum!

    Hi Skysue - can I ask what type of questions he was asking bc i got a similar phonecall - very slow sounding man on the phone asking about poopy diapers and if i liked changing them after the initial chitchat of how old his son was....i asked for a phone number/wife name and he paused alot like he was thinking of a lie - his number came up private number - so i doubt the name and number are legit. Sighs, all I want is another child to fill my spot not this kind of garbage. This is the first time that I have had any negative phonecall and hope its my last. Please let me know if this sounds like the same person or not.

    This really shook me up. I am still shaking when I think about it. I am located in brampton but I don't think I can report it because its just a private number and the phone number he gave me doesn't accept in calls. Called himself John Murray and gave out the phone number of 905 840 1039. I suppose I could call the police and report an incident but I doubt it would do much good - not much of a lead. Though, he did ask which parks that I attend and I decided to end the conversation right then and there. Awful disturbing.

    I realize you are having a hard time filling your spots too. I have one full time spot and I have had zero luck filling it. I don't know what more I can do to find someone. I feel like I have advertised everywhere and now am getting creepy calls which makes me wonder if I should take my phone number off entirely.
