For the past week my boyfriend has been receiving unwanted calls from the # [protected]. We traced the # to somalia.
The phone rings and sometimes you can hear someone and sometimes they just hang up. If you try to call it back, it just rings and hangs up. Yesterday he received 40 calls, during all times of the day and night.
We have t - mobile and they won't do anything. The police won't do anything. The only option is to change the number and he doesn't want to do that as he has had this number for 8 years. Can anything else be done?
Same thing, I'm in Canada, it's been 2 days and I've gotten about 40 calls day and night, I have picked up a few times and told then to stop calling but they continue.and if virgin charges me ill yell at them and tell them to take the charges off. I too can't block the number so I'm gonna have to change mine. Such a piss off!
I have got the same issues with numbers from the number +[protected]. They call me all day long. I have picked up my phone the first few times and i could hear someone breathing but then he/she hung up. Now i don't answer at all and keep getting a lot of calls. I live in Belgium and I have no idea how they could get my number.
Since month or so I am getting regular calls from some different numbers starting with +252. Some of the numbers are +[protected] +[protected] +[protected] +[protected] +[protected] +[protected] and so on... These call come at all time early morning, during day, late night etc... One day few days back I had recalled one of this number and then I was charged 50rs in my bill... I don't know what to do...
I have been having the same problem with my mobile for 2 and a half years now! first few times i answered to tell them to stop calling, they would say hello, or just hang up, he sounded about 15? I used to get up to 20 calls a day, at all times of day, also from different numbers, then they will not call for a few weeks or even a few months then from out of the blue just start calling again, i have not answered any calls for at least 2 years, i just find the whole situation strange, but i've had the same number for 10years so dont want to change my number, guess will just have to put up with it.
I live in the UK and have had the same problem for about 2 years now. Absolutely annoying with their persistent calls using different numbers everyday.
I am an Android user and use a call blocking app to block all numbers starting with "+252" - sends ALL these cheeky b*stards straight to voicemail.
However, they have started texting me jibberish, one of the most recent one reads "from mogadishu somalia my name xoogsade abdi ahmed dhalinyarda booliska kenya ay ku eedaynaya west gate waxaa lagu dajinaya dadka kenyanka ah kuwaas ka walaacsan weeraro kale kayimaafa dhanka al shabab waaye ragii ka dagalamy west gatear hore ayay baxsadeen sidaas ayay ila tahay"
... absolute rubbish.
I live in Finland, and my wife received 3 times a call from Somalia +[protected], I answered last 2 times and there was some kid saying "Hello hello hello", the quality of the audio was very poor. ###ing weird because my wife's number is secret
They Called 9 times between 2am and 8am today (I am in California USA). Tried to call it back but oh... I can't make calls to samalia. Why not? Because i do not do business in samalia. get calls blacklist app (android maybe iphone). BLOCK that number!
I am trying to find out why as well and found this post. I went to contacts, there you should have " blocked contacts " open that, click add block contact by number and put in the number ( +[protected] ) it is a way to stop the calls. I got one last week at 4 Am but then 5 in a row this morning at 5 am...
I live in Australia and exact same thing. So much for privacy. I'm a computer tech so I have no worries tracing these ### down. Getting something done in a different country will be difficult though. I'll keep everyone updated as I find out more.
Just got a call from +[protected] traced to Somalia. Couldn't bother to answer.
Got a call from [protected] first time. computer lady voice told me that my package was ready at the pickup point and that I had to enter a code. This is enough for me to know to hang up. This call took place on the 21st of February in the Netherlands around mid-day
2016 ... still getting somalian phone calls . Slovacia and Slovenia too !
Wadafac, the call for 5-6 seconds and hang up themselves . . . kids ?
Isaac,
I think ther r two reasons:
Some they make that as a fun
But most of them their relatives told them a false number to resist from calling them and asking some money, so forexample the father calls this false nuber thinking that it is his doughter's number, when he hears another one he thinks that his doughter is at the work then he calls again and agin saying who r u, hoping to get his doughter who is behind this terrible action
IM from Canada and have been getting calls from Somalia on a daily basis...i block each number but get calls from different numbers all day long.
In Canada, got calls from 252-[protected] and [protected]. Started all of a sudden last week.
