Caller ID read 11111111111

I didn't know until the other day what these numbers were either. The scary part is I now know what it means! The PROBLEM SOLVERS did a special report about it. I can't remember what the name of the company is but....people can actually buy a calling card from this company to HIDE the real number they are calling from. It works the same way as any other calling card does. You purchase the card, when prompted you enter the number you want to appear on the caller id of the person you are calling. Telemarketers are banned from using these cards. There are laws against it. The really scary part is SCAM artisits are using it to get access to your private information. I am scared to answer my phone unless I THINK I know who it is. I never pick up those weird #'s but. The news reporter did a presentation of the card in action. He asked the participant in the news story for the telephone number to his bank. He than dialed the participant's cell phone using the "CALLER ID CARD". When the prompt asked him to enter the number he wished to appear on the caller id, he entered the participants bank telephone number. When the participant looked at his cell phone's caller id the name that appeared was the 1 8oo# for WAMU. How scary is that? If the participant had didn't know any better he would have thought this call wasn't coming from his bank. My suggestion is if you get a call from your bank or credit card company. Ask for a number to call them back! Do not accept the call.

i think its not a code. the companies or person use a software for calling. so please confirm to call centre for that.

i get this number 1111 or 123456789 or 0000000 usually when its an international call..

no idea but i had a call from a number that read 9999999999. i wasnt home so i didnt know where it came from or who it was.
