    My wife missed a call earlier today from
    +88 132 100 XXXX

    (she texted me to ask me if I knew which country that might have
    originated from...)

    Any idea whether that might be some foreign network , mobile ?

    I've tried to look up +88, etc on google, etc but not getting far.

    I guess I could call directory enquiries.

    Any ideas.

    That looks about right. Thanks for that.
    It's not Japan.

    The fact that a few folks recorded calls today (according to intl directory
    enquiries) from that and wer e puzzled by it makes me feel there is
    a scam in progress somewhere. Maybe its just bona fide sales pitch
    but I doubt it.

    its a premium rate number.
    what happens is you get a missed call form this number, you call it back and youre put on hold.the call dosent connect but youre charged for premium rate lines.


    dont call it back.
