+8888888888 I seen someone sayin "They must be mad if they reckon anyone would pick up a number like that." But they ain't mad cos loads of people do answer calls from numbers like this one and others like +0000, or 000000000, even any number with a + at the front. So really, who’s the idiot here? They keep ringin cause people just keep pickin up.

Today, I received a call from this number, but when I picked up, all I got was silence! It's quite unusual to come across a number like that, isn’t it? How on earth did they acquire such a number?
I happened to see in the comments that someone attempted to ring them back? That sent a chill down my spine! There are numerous scams that operate by ringing you, hoping you'll call them back, and then they rake in a hefty fee from you! It’s really wise to refrain from returning any calls unless you’re absolutely certain of who’s on the other end.

I received a call from this number, only to have them disconnect the moment I picked up. When I attempted to return the call, I was met with a message saying, "This number is not recognised." It has left me rather puzzled. I've noticed reports from various individuals stating similar experiences with this number, claiming to be from "BT" and other businesses. The fact that the identity seems to shift for each caller makes me suspect it might be some kind of scammer trying to fish for information. I'm honestly quite baffled by the whole situation.

It was 00 then 8 repeated like 10 times, the phone rang and when I picked up and said hello, the call just got cut off. Really dodgy number, and on iPhones it usually shows where the call is from but this one just said “unknown”!

I received a call from someone claiming to be from BT, stating that my internet service was about to be cut off and instructed me to access my computer. I responded by telling him that if BT truly wished to reach me, they ought to send me a letter instead. Subsequently, I ended the call. He did mention his name, but sadly, I didn’t jot it down. I'm left wondering what these individuals hope to gain from such tactics.

We just received a call from this number, and it was rather peculiar. The individual seemed to imply they were aware of someone who'd had an accident last year but couldn’t identify us or provide any details.

I’m currently employed at a physiotherapy clinic and received two calls from this number earlier today. Each time I picked up, the call just disconnected. Not long after, I heard from one of our patients on her mobile (35387........), who mentioned that she had attempted to call twice just moments before but was abruptly cut off as well. I’m left wondering why her mobile number wasn’t displayed but this other number was. Quite the mystery, isn’t it?

I've been bombarded by this number calling me six times a day! Each time, they either hang up or insistently ask for someone else, speaking in a heavy Indian accent. It's become utterly unbearable, as I've pleaded with them to cease their calls time and time again, but they refuse to listen. They won't disclose their purpose or even reveal who they are. Not only are they disrupting my work-from-home routine, but they’re also waking me up incessantly! It's nothing short of harassment at this point.

They went by the name "Home Service" and were eager to have a chat about my electricity and gas. However, they hung up as soon as I pressed for more information about their business.
