    Hi Folks,

    Have got two calls in the last 5 mins. One requesting AC/DC tickets and the other about a pumber. Its an 087 number, final digits xxx8021

    It isn't kids messing as its a professional, middle aged woman at the end of the phone. My number is ex-directory aswell.

    With permission I'd like to list the full number.

    Ring 087 5 xxx8021 and see if they have a personalised voicemail.

    I would lean toward wrong number too but seems very strange that he'd get 2 calls from the same number about different things.

    Someone may also have put your number up on the Buy&Sell online or something similiar? Google your number and see what comes up.

    Google their number too and see what comes up.

    PErsonally I wouldn't worry about it too much if it's just 2 calls you got.

    Surly Google don't store personal phone numbers, I've just tried my own mobile #, and I'm glad to say that they no information.

    If it's on the internet, it's on Google.

    But not from secure sites such as vodafone or perlico, I just realised that after a little panic attack.

    No it doesn't, but if this is a known spammer someone might have had the problem before and the number might show up.
