| Post subject: | Cold calls to mobile |
I have recently had a cold call to my mobile trying to sell me a car imported direct from Japan . I cut the call short and blocked the number . Today I received the same call but "unknown " to my phone . Has anyone had the same ? is it likely to cost me a fortune to answer ? I am reluctant to call MTN as previous experience with their service was "the blind leading the blind " |

Thanks for the reassurance JB, I had in mind a recent scam I vaguely recalled about answering calls from strange numbers overseas . |

I have never been happy with this style of marketing, it is harassment and should be punishable in a court of law. If it ever happens and you have a phone no. You should post it publically to help warn and protect others. |

The area code for Tokyo is 3, so the IDD code for Tokyo is +813 In Cyprus the + means you actually dial "00" So for Greece from Cyprus you actually dial 0030 And for Tokyo from Cyprus you actually dial 00813 Amos. |
