Phone calls in the middle of the night....
The last two nights, we've received phone calls from an 861 area code. First call was at 1AM, the next one, this morning was at 4AM. The telephone numbers contain an extra three digits, not sure if that's the extension, the message number, etc? First call I answered and could hear voices. The one this AM, I did not answer, but it was annoying to be awakened so very early each day.
Numbers are 861-397-2652151 and 861-388-3160021. Can't find out anything when I Google the numbers and I'm not going to call either number. Anyone else getting these calls? |
No, but I would call my phone company and have them check on it; and put a block on those calls coming through. How annoying!

861 shows up on Google as "not a valid area code."

86 is the country code for China. Maybe The following numbers are part of a phone number with an extension??? Country Codes>>

Whistle at them
Buy a whistle from the sporting goods department. Keep it by the phone. If you get another one remove the phone from your ear and blow as hard and as long as you can. Even if he does recover his hearing, he will think twice about calling again. This worked for a "heavy breather that called me."

The voices I heard were speaking English and seemed to be speaking without accents. Loan repayments...well, they'll just have to.......:D |

Okay, hubby just finished some research and it appears to be a number from China, Sichuan Provence, town of Yibin. Again, thanks for the link, it got us started correctly on our search! Not bad enough I get calls from the US, now I'm getting them from China...YIKES! |

Have my phones with Comcast and will have to give them a call to find out if they can trace and block....but I'll wait to see if I have one more call tonight. Oops, hubby is searching and apparently it is a number from China. Apparently there's someone who speaks very good English at the end of one of these phones. |
Now have more information....it's a Chongquing Mobile Easy Own Card being used...a China Mobile GSM. Freakin' lovely.
