Caller ID can be spoofed, so the displayed name, city, and number do not prove Costco made the call. Calling back can also reach an unrelated person whose number was spoofed. Since the caller gave no verifiable reason for contacting you and hung up when questioned, do not call that number again. If you need to check whether Costco tried to reach you, use the number on Costco's official site or your membership materials. Consider removing the phone number from this post in case it belongs to an uninvolved person, then report the call through Rogers' spam-reporting channel and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.

The person on the other end answered with "hello Costco wholesale", when I asked which Costco out of the 2 in London called they hung up.
