Answer 1

TRY BLOCKING PRIVATE CALLS!

Answer 2

You can set up your phone so that it won't let through blocked phone numbers.  I think it's *68 or something (you'll have to look it up).

Answer 3

...dont answer or change your number. If you complain alot or say stop it of course she'll call back duh! Change phone numbers and only tell CERTAIN people about it! Your closes friends and people from work that way you'll know if its one of them! Or go to the store where they sell cell phones and ask if you can block the number BY THE WAY it takes about an hour or more to trace a call so its not as easy as it sounds believe me!

Answer 4

THEATIN THEM AND CALL THE POLICE OR TARGET IF NEEDED  .

JUST STAY CALM AND TRY TO WATCH TV .

TELL UR PARENTS  .

CALL THE POLICE  .

Answer 5

Get some authoritarian sounding friend to answer your calls and state that due to prank calls all your calls are now being answered by a security agency, please leave your name and number so that you can call them back.

Answer 6

turn your phone off. they'll stop calling. if they leave voicemails, don't listen to them, just erase them

Answer 7

Call the ******* cops. Also tell them to check the ******* camera's

Answer 8

call the police station and see what they can do.  they can probably trace the number...you know it's illegal to prank call someone...

threaten them.  tell them that you know where they live and that you're going to call their parents.  (it's mos tlikely some bored child/teenager wanting something to do that's calling you)

Answer 9

Stop answering your phone (duh) or... call 50

Answer 10

ignore their call or just change your cell phone number

Answer 11

scare them

Answer 12

On a cell phone, you are screwed... at least with AT&T anyhow.  I was getting repeated calls on my new cell phone for a Mark McClung (no, not me).  I called to see if there was a way to stop the ones coming up as (UNKNOWN CALLER)..  nope.

I got a few of them to stop because their numbers showed, but at least 2 do not show and I'm stuck.  You MIGHT be able to set your ringtones to a 'nothing' for any private number calls so you don't even hear it ring tho.  I am going to make a blank/silent MP3 and try it 2morrow to see if it will work..

Good luck.

Answer 13

im pretty sure u can track down the number..or u can block it!

good luck!

or answer it and yell at her!

Answer 14

call the cops.  they can get phone records and it will come up on there with the number.  I had to do it to someone that was stalking me. or call your phone company and tell them that you want to block all unknown names, private numbers, etc.

Answer 15

someone is jus messing with you.ingore it.eventually theyll stop

Answer 16

when they call talk to them nonstop.if you keep doing that they will stop callling you.

Answer 17

change your number and report to your service provider

Answer 18

Why call police/cops? What do you think cops will do if they don't even know the phone number? Just change your number then. And stop prank calling 1-800 numbers. Maybe they catch your number and wants to play with you.

Answer 19

call police

Answer 20

tell them your going to call the cops. then just talk to them like you know them and keep changing the subject, they might get annoyed.

Answer 21

1)Block the #

2)avoid the call

3)prank call back

4)threaten the person that you know where they are from (i wouldnt do it though)

Answer 22

Tell the cops to trace it if they are threatening you. Someone kept prank calling me and threatening to kill me so my daddy called the police and they traced the calls and it turns out that i was my at the time boyfriends ex shes a phsyco so i filled a police report against her
