    Hi,

    I've recently started getting missed calls from +224 which I have assumed is a scam, speaking with a few run buddies it seems they also have received these calls. The only thing that we have in common would be giving our numbers when signing up to races online.

    Just curious to see if it's common across running community lately getting these calls from +224 ?

    My husband and loads of people at work have got these calls as well. None of them are runners. It's a scam going on at the moment.
