    Hi,
    I've been getting nuisance calls at work for the last while from a strange number- 0091777
    Nobody says anything its just silence on the other end. They are ringing between 10-20 times a day. I am worried as apart from being really irritating I have heard that its a scam and they are trying to get into your computure through the phone line.

    Any suggestions? I phone my phone company a while ago... about a the same problem with a different number, they said there was nothing they could do :-( All they could tell me was that it was a widespread problem and that the calls are coming from a different country.

    Thanks everone!

    They can't get into your computer through the phone, so no need to worry about that.

    Most phones these days have the ability to hang up on a call without answering it. I would recommend you do this rather than answer.
