Subject: Telephone call !!!!!!
  Does CIC give any companies order to call us and ask some questions about our file but not officially. I had yesterday telephone call from (one university!!!) that I do not know them ,they ask me many thinks,about my education and my income and many other question. Has anybody had the same telephone call? because I have heard that sometimes they give order to other companies to proof our file. I applied from Germany 4 months ago. any answer would be highly appreciate

Not really, ask for verification before you give out information over phone. CIC will never ask for information over phone.

They care about your privacy.

Maybe someone was collecting information from a data collection company. So check. Don´t they have laws against invasion of privacy in Germany or a Donot call list?

Hey Dude a silly question but where are you originally from? Do you need to have German speaking ability to work in Germany? or English is good enough?

Did they identify that they are calling from the Canadian Consulate?

I´m sorry to say but you have lived 20 years in a developed nation and have not learned the recourse to protect your interests.

In case you don´t want such calls again:

A) Sign up for a do not call list
B) Ask for caller to identify and refuse if you don´t want the call
C) Call local business chamber to report this abuse.
D) Call the company and ask them to wipe out your infor as you did not authorize it.

they can get enough information to make mortgage fraud, credit card fraud.
They can steal your house

it sounds like a survey company rather than criminals.
