 Well, SOMEONE in your household made those calls. Guaranteed. Your computer 
 might have spewed them out, due to your computer security ignorance.

 |||||| I think that there is more to this story that you are not willing 
 |||||| to share. I can't see telus just charging you $5000.00 worth of 
 |||||| non existent charges. How would that benefit them in the big 
 |||||| picutre, $5000.00 to telus is peanuts. 
 |||||| 
 |||||| Did you happen to have teenagers in the house or a house guest 
 |||||| that you were not willing to press charges against so you 
 |||||| covered off the billing?

 |||||||| Pay the bill in the mean time, but send then a demand letter

 |||||||| what you feel you are owed tell them you will take  them to 
 |||||||| Small Claims Court. It will take you time and money, but you

 |||||||| costs. The demand letter, like a lawyers letter will  do the

 |||||||| could try contacting one of the newspaper complaint line's and 
 |||||||| they often will investigate. The fact the newspaper is 
 |||||||| checking it out will force them to address your problem.
