    Not sure if this is right place to post this, Mods please move if so :)

    My phone (mobile) rang there about 20 minutes ago, looked at the phone to see that its was an international number calling me. The caller hung up before i could think to even answer.
    I didnt regonise the coutry code so looked it up , turns out its San Marino. Then i actually googled the entire number and got a hit on this site http://whocallsme.com/Phone-Number.aspx/37866321910
    looks like it a scam, basically they ring and hang up and you call back, but your calling back to a premium rate adult phone line system. a few reports of people in western europe being called by it so watch out and dont answer or call it back.

    And ladies, if someone calls to your house and tells you they are a boob inspector they are not real - they are just trying to cop a feel.

    Got a missed call like that before turned out to be a German number.

    I called it back a few times and got no ring tone.

    Was never charged for it.

    I bet there are Nigerians involved at some point.

    There must be a University of cheating and scamming in that country.


    Apologies to the honest, decent, hard working and friendly Nigerians in Ireland.

    I don't call anyone back unless I know them and they leave a message or I know the number.
    If it's important, they'll call back.

    Thats my philosophy too. If its not important enough for them to call back why should I bother?

    Thanks for the input, you must be really important. Do "they" ever call back?, if they do ask em where Elvis is and when is he coming back? ;)
