Nearly forgot about this one. Got a call on my mobile at 4:30pm on 1st June, but it just went straight to voicemail with no message left. I’ve blocked that number now. Also, got two calls from Zambian phone numbers over a couple of days. Both are blocked now, cheers to this site for helping with that.

Got a call from the same number, showed as Zambia on my phone. I didn't pick up, but later sent them a random rude photo I found online just for a laugh.

Don’t bother answering this one. If it’s someone you know, they’ll just leave a voicemail! Total scam!

I think this is a trick to get you to ring back after missing the call, but youll end up with a massive bill for it.

Some number from Zambia rang me but it’s not through Virgin Media or anything so I’m not sure why? I rang them back a couple of times, they answered but just stayed quiet? Strange behaviour really.

Got a call from this number on my phone just now. Had no clue who it was and they hung up before I could pick up. Don’t know anyone from Zambia at all. Another pointless call. Way too many like this lately. Blocked it straight away.

Got a missed call at 19:55 but didn’t catch any sound, only noticed it later when I grabbed the phone. No idea why anyone from Zambia would ring me, so I just blocked the number. I’m on Virgin Mobile, and it looks like loads of folks mention that same network here. Feels like someone sold off a bunch of our numbers to scammers. Brilliant all this “data protection” stuff, right!

Phone rang quick then cut out, couldn’t answer in time. My iPhone shows it’s from Zambia too. Feels like we’re all getting these calls from the same Zambian number all of a sudden! Haha. Blocked ’em - don’t want any dodgy scam calls!

So I noticed a missed call from 4th June 2018 and figured I should look it up, glad I did really. Going to block that number for sure. I’m with 3 mobile now, but I’ve had this same number for more than 10 years across different networks. No clue how they even got hold of it.

calls from an african number ring a couple times, looks like a scam trying to get you to ring back.
8 years
yeah, i agree with what all the others have said here.

this number only rings a couple of times then cuts out - when you try calling back, you get charged for calling africa and they keep you hanging on the line forever.

Just like mine, it rang twice then nothing. Classic scam call.

Avoid this one at all costs. It’s a pay-as-you-go number, but the details it gives don’t line up. I’ve been keeping an eye on this number for some time and once I figure out its origin, I’m going to block the phone and the computer linked to it. Be warned, I’m determined to track down your workplace since I’ve got family in Nigeria and other places nearby. Stay cautious out there. themightyarmsofatlas 272?

It only rang twice. I looked up the country code and it showed Zambia, which I've got no links with. Then I entered the full number and ended up here. Cheers for the help, folks.

such a right nuisance!

its a total scam. my missus got tricked by it and ended up paying £3 through virgin mobile when she called back by mistake. the person on the other end sounded like they were in some kinda trouble, trying to keep her talking for ages. luckily, she spotted it after about 1 minute 19 seconds and quickly hung up.

i keep getting calls on my mobile from +260973872170. from what ive looked up its an international number from zambia, a place i got no ties to at all. i just dont pick up and they never leave a message so im guessing its just one of those annoying nuisance calls.
