+861 spam calls?
-
Hi i just recieved an sms from my friend saying that there's a new spam going on in china which target we hp users.The incoming number will start with +861 and if u answer u will incur high IDD calls.
Can anyone verify this?I just recieved calls from a particular +861 number twice and lucky i didnt answer.
National Library Board cannot trace the location of the call as its a cell phone number and not a fixed line. -
NLB??

Why would the National Library Board want to help you trace your call?Originally posted by ceecookie:Hi i just recieved an sms from my friend saying that there's a new spam going on in china which target we hp users.The incoming number will start with +861 and if u answer u will incur high IDD calls.

How come it's NLB and not SingTel?
Anyway, these calls are not local... if you answer, you pay... -
Yesh. I kena twice already. When your next hp bill comes u'll know how much to pay for the IDD call
-
Yar. even if u have free incoming calls service, if im not wrong its only applicable to calls made locally....
so obviously overseas call you will have to pay more... -
Oh, so NLB is the facade behind some other secret agency.

my Husband receive it once and I receive it twice. But all missed calls and all different numbers. I even thought it's his distant relative there calling (but also was thinking how the heck they know his and my handphone number?? So cannot be them calling)Originally posted by ceecookie:Hi i just recieved an sms from my friend saying that there's a new spam going on in china which target we hp users.The incoming number will start with +861 and if u answer u will incur high IDD calls.

So I sent a global sms to the caller asking who she or he is. The caller never reply. So out of curiousity I go search 861 belongs to which Country, then found out it's from the above mentioned Country. About 2 months later, I received the second one.. the phone ring only less than one sec on my table and become missed call. I thought maybe that caller using prepaid card and don't have enough value on the prepaid card. Now I know why it's all missed calls. Because the caller hung up too fast. Anyway we won't bother to call back also. If I really want to answer also cannot, because the caller hung up within 1 sec of dialing and connecting through. For safety and security reasons I did not delete the missed calls' numbers. -
i didnt accept the calls as well.Is this spam related to the incident where ard 300000 singapore cell phone numbers were sold to china by one of those fancy chat company?It was on newspaperOriginally posted by trendz:+86xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
