|
|
18 phone calls so far today (12 in the past half hour) from a mystery number which is showing up on my call display with 15 or 18 digits. Thinking it was possibly a long distance call, I made the mistake of answering it yesterday and there was just silence on the other end, maybe because all I said was "Hello." Is there any way to do reverse lookup for SK numbers? |

Careful here. Some of these scams ring you first with one ring and expect you to call them back so you get charged automatically a large sum of money. |

Do they actually allow known scams to continue ringing off the hook? Couldn't a small country like Korea police the networks? I was warned not to answer any number that begins with a certain prefix, but can't remember the prefix. I simply don't answer anything I don't recognize. If it's someone who met me and trying to get in touch with a number I don't recognize, they will text me. |
