Wierd telephone calls..

This evening, since about 5 o clock, I have been bombarded with phone calls from a number I don't recognise. Its not a normal number:

+108004049763 is how it appears on my phone (Sony Ericsson K750i on Virgin Mobile)

and I havent answered in case its dodgy. There was also a voicemail - but that was basically the caller hanging up.

Anyone got any ideas about who/what it could be? Im confused :confused:

+1 is canada's international dialing code thats about as much as I can tell you

Jonny69 · 5 May 2006 at 21:08

Looks foreign. They must be after you.

Six6siX · 5 May 2006 at 21:15

Canada? Hmm I have some relatives there but no one who knows my mobile number at all.

The calls seem to have stopped for the time being...if I dont find out who it is/find out its crap, is there any way to stop calls like this?

+1 is US & Canada, not just Canada.

I had a weird phone call about 10 minutes ago.

Caller: Hey, you ****** your gf yet?

Me: Who is this?

Caller: Your mom

Me: Oh hi mom, did you manage to post the electricity bill in time?

Caller: you **** *click*

Just answer it

Give Virgin a call, they may know more information.

What are they gonna do if you answer? Just answer it next time and then you'll know who it is.

Six6siX · 5 May 2006 at 22:15

Yeah I guess, it just seems very strange.

Next time it happens I'll answer then. Not had a call in about 1 hour now. I think they've given up

Have fun.....just answer with "Hitmen for Hire Inc", how can we help you caller at +108004049763, they probably won't call again in a hurry!!

Rich1988 · 5 May 2006 at 22:17

could be one of your relatives desperate to contact you, I feel really guilty if I dont answer the phone to someone, they cant exactly do anything to you vore the phone.

I want you to listen to me carefully, becasue this can be serious.

Place mustard on your face immediately. I know its passe now, but it had to be said.

Do this, or... "Joe's roadside café. You kill 'em, we grill 'em" or other such comedy phone pick up message. "Mike's taxidermy. You snuff 'em, we stuff 'em."

LOL

*Mental images of me smearing mustard on my face*

Its wierd when you think of yourself in 3rd person...

Ok, comedy answer for the win if they ring back - but if I do, I hope its not a relative, because that could turn out to be unfortunate...

Any other comedy responses?

Tell them...

"Soon you're going to find out what happens when you **** with a stranger..." and hang up

When I say this, is it me talking about myself in the third person again? (see what I did there...?)
