I can't remember who, but someone said I should not answer certain incoming SPAM calls from certain area codes.

Do you get charged just for answering certain SPAM numbers?

From what i'm told and saw on the news. You do get charged for answering the phones from like 060 numbers.

You don't get charged for answering it, but will get get charged for calling back.
There are some of these scam companies that call you phone, let it ring twice, then hang up. They count on you to call them to see who it is, but they charge you for calling them like calling phone s*x.
It's just a scam to charge you.
I used to get these every week from 060 numbers.
Now, they come every few weeks from 010 numbers.

If I don't know the number, I don't call back.

Really?

So they've figured out how to charge you just for answering now?

I think you can get charged for opening up some of the SMS messages though.
