Unidentified callers on cell phones

[goldmom]

I keep getting calls from 0000000000 on my cell phone. I do NOT answer them and delete them as soon as possible. I'm concerned that they are some scam that will be activated if I pick up.

Of course, it could also be Publishers Clearing House telling me I'm getting $7000 a week for life. Since I haven't entered their contest, I doubt it.

Anyone else get these?

If I get those I send them to immediately block but it is a game of whack a mole

There was a time that we received them pretty regularly but I haven't seen the "ll zeroes" come across in a while. There was never anyone there when we answered. Probably just ghosts.

Unknown caller=straight to voice mail. I can always call them back.

When I get calls overseas from buddies either on a land line run through another base or a SAT phone is will come across as 99999999

Might be a robo-call from a business or organization. I answer those calls sometimes and that is what it is. I hang up.

What kind of prepaid phone do you have OP?

Could be a VOIP robocaller

I was getting a steady stream of calls from "windows support" and a serious issue with my PC. I engaged them a few times, but then got bored with that, so I went to Dick's and bought an air-horn and would blast them.

Could be Magic Jack's fault. After that incoming call from my house, they probably signed you up for Polynesian midget biker porn after sending your location to Apple, the NSA and Colonel Sanders.

Sorry girly....had to laugh. FTR...I have one of those walmart/drug dealer ones.

The one that freaks me out is when you get a call from your own number!!...first few times I immediately thought of the movie "When A Stranger Calls"...after researching it though it's just another spoofing technique used these days by Robo Callers

OK, that's cute. Not funny, but cute. In an earnest "I try so hard to be the funny guy in the frater, no couldn't get in one, er uh, DORM...."

Years later, you can still tell. You're the one.

Can we get a translator?

All phone calls are obscene.

I have silenced my phone; no ring, no vibration. All calls go straight to voicemail. Those that interest me receive a return call when I'm ready.

Receiving a response from me is tantamount to receiving a response to your letter to Santa Claus.
