How can I find out who called from a private number?

Question

It's a cell phone by the way, I forgot to include that.

Answer 1

you cant..

call the cops if it gets bad

Answer 2

The only way you can do this is to get the police involved.... there is a program that the company can install on your phone so that when the person calls, it traces back the number.... the other thing you COULD try... is to call *69 (send) after this person calls.  Or, lastly, if you don't care for either of those, I would recommend she get a new number!!!!!  

Answer 3

Call him up (from her phone, since it's probably on the call history), and tell him to stop calling. Then use a somewhat violent and drastic threat.  

Answer 4

call the cops

Answer 5

you could call the police to trace the call..

Answer 6

Type in *69 then send. There is a small fee, but it will give you the number. From there you can do a reverse look-up online and possibly get a name for the number.

Answer 7

yeah  you cant find out who it is unless its like that serious that you wanna call the cops

Answer 8

I don't think you can. Report it to the police so that they can trace the call.

Answer 9

The thing is, I dont think you can trace the number. He's obviously using *67 to hide his number. So, my best advise is tht your friend just dont pick up when she sees "Private Number" on the Caller ID. If this creepy dude leaves a voicemail, just delete and dont listen to it. If she keeps avoiding him, he will eventually give up. It's not like he knows where she lives right?

Answer 10

normally id say ignore private calls...on land lines there is actually a number you punch in to block them (i forgot what it is google it) or on cells you just assign no ring to private/restricted calls. that isnt normal though. Id tell the police see if you can get a recording.

Answer 11

this happened to one of my friends last year.........

so i told her to change her simcard.

if it is a land line.phone your phone provider and get your number changed.

Answer 12

you can't, but if they threaten you you can call the cops and they can find out the number if you talked for a minute or more.

Answer 13

Don't answer the phone when he calls..
