I constantly get calls from people saying I called them and hung up as soon as they pick up. They call me back from caller ID. I never called any of them. They are always different numbers and in my area code. All at diff. times of the day. The calls are not in my outgoing list. ever since I changed my phone number this has been happening. I have cingular. Anyone have the same prob?? what canbe causing this?
Answers:
Apparently, someone is using one of those websites that "spoof" caller ID information. What you CAN do is call AT%26T, tell them what is happening and ask them if they could change your number because this keeps happening to you and it%26#39;s costing you minutes on your phone. If you are really getting lots of calls like this, someone is doing this to you and they obviously have your cellphone number. AT%26T generally charges to change your number but in some cases, they don%26#39;t. I have had mine changed for a different reason, but an important one involving harrassment and they changed my number for no charge. This is the same type of situation and I%26#39;ll bet if you call and explain to them what%26#39;s happening and how it is really affecting you and costing you minutes, they will change your number for no charge. It doesn%26#39;t hurt to ask. If the first person you talk to in customer care at AT%26T doesn%26#39;t help you, hang up and ask the next customer care representative. GOOD LUCK!! Your number has been "spoofed." There is nothing you can do. AT%26T won%26#39;t help you with that.
