Weird missed number .....

OK, weird .....

Just seen a missed call on my mobile (10.25am).
Its from 0016600000

Any ideas ?

I've never seen a number format like that before.

Its a Nok6310i on Orange.

Probably a faked Caller ID - most likely offering you a free upgrade to
3g through some dodgy telecoms company (Docklands Telecom, et al)

True, but 6600000 doesn't look like a genuine number to me!

So I immediately ruled out a US number as there aren't enough figures in the
number.

And you run a phone related website ..... jeesh !

001-xxx-yyy-zzzz

001 = International DC
xxx = state code
yyy = city code
zzzz = phone number

I think he a very very young person running it, surprised they are running it
when their knowledge on things Telecom/Mobile is extremely lacking, it is
frightening sometimes, I've noticed this on most of their posts, they are
either still at school, or left school without any or poor grade. Nothing
wrong in that except they should try and gain some knowledge of the industry
they are pretending to be in (with their site).

Either a spoofed number, acorrupt number, or a VoIP number where the provider
sends out strange CLI for customers with no VoIP number to allow people to
call customers with ACR.
