Yes, this is a Scam! Why would Bell call you if you already have Fibe? This was not Bell calling. These are fraudsters trying to scam you into believing they are from Bell.

Never share any personal information with anyone you do not know or trust! Do not open web links or messages in emails or text messages!

If you are unsure, then call Bell! It is far better to be safe than sorry!

I have also been getting this phishing call (from apparently 613-271-**** a landline in Stittsville). The robot goes something like this "We are upgrading our lines and will be sending you a new free internet modem. Press <1> to schedule an appointment..."  I recently got the GigaHub 2 so it is an obvious scam for me.
