|
|
I keep getting calls from 060 area code numbers and they hang up after just 2 rings.
My friends have told me it's a scam to try and get you to call them back. It's some scam where they just call people and hang up. They want you to call back because you're curious who called you.
Do not do this!
You aren't charged if they call you, but if you call them, you are charged a super high rate. They don't want to talk to you anyway. They just want to charge you a big fee for calling them.
Just a warning, so don't fall prey! |

Whenever I get a call like that, whether it be 060 or 080, I set it as a spam number in my filter. |

Unless it's someone I know, I never call back to someone who hung up before I could answer. If they wanna talk to me, they'll call again! |

YOU are COOL.
I just got a call from them.
But, they didn't hang up.

Thanks for the heads up. Amazingly I got a call from an 060 number just minutes after reading this post. I probably would have called back had I not read this post. |
