MYSTERIOUS CALLS FROM PRIVATE NUMBER

Randyleprechaun · 2010-07-15 08:34:17

Hi, I am getting calls recently from a private number. When i answer the calls I can hear a phone ringing. Has anybody else had this experience or can anyone shed any light on what it is. I assume it's some sort of scam and I dont even let it ring once.

If you consider it a nuisance call you can contact the Gardai, they will seek permission from your service provider to track the source of the call.

Mobile phones can be tracked through a process called cell site analysis even if they are using an unregistered prepaid sim card.
