If someone prank calls you over and over again

Question

and then it stops and then in two weeks another prank call what do you do and why could this happening

Answer 1

That is where caller id and a answering machine come in handy..Never pick it up unless you know who it is....

Answer 2

someone is totally messing with you...I would try and block the call, and if that didn't work, get caller ID, and just don't answer the phone when they call, or any call that is unknown caller. If all else fails and they keep doing it, call the police, but really I don't know how much they can do. good luck

Answer 3

Talk to your carrier and have the call traced. Tell the person to stop or you will pursue it further. There are alot of sick people out there.  

Answer 4

see if u can block the number and if not and it continues contact the police

Answer 5

What I do personally, is as soon as I pick up,  scream really freaking loud into the receiver and hang up. THeir ears will be bleeding and they'll not really want that to happen again. Especially if they try it again and you repeat the process.

Answer 6

pick up and dont say anything just listen to them haha

Answer 7

It could be one of your friends messing with you. If you want it to stop call the company and ask about blocking the number.

Answer 8

Dial [star]*69 that will tell you like this: "The number of your last incoming call was: Example: 1-555-555-5555 dialed at 1:34 PM ".If it says"This number is private" then call your phone company tell them you were just harassed and want the call traced and blocked.

We have a telephone that says the number as the phone is ringing with caller ID on the phone and an answering machine which is a God send cause we get a lot of sales calls.
