I keep getting harassed by an unknown number

I have an iPhone, it calls every single day around the same time 3:00-3:30. I answered once but never spoke, all I hear is "hello? "And silence then I hang up the phone. Other than that I have been declining the call. What do I do!

Complain to your carrier, maybe they can block it

Umm the point of a telephone call is to actually have a conversation… Maybe this person IS trying to get ahold of you but doesn't know its the right number (or it could be wrong) but the way to answer a phone is to usually say hello FIRST as the receiver… Not the other way around… Of course if someone hears silence they are going to hang up due to the lack of communication or possible disconnection whether it be you OR the other person… Next time they call ANSWER it and SPEAK… This doesn't sound like harassment to me…

1. You didn't say anything, so how do you know you DON't know this person?
2. You give us no indication that you have asked this person to stop calling you

Just block the call or try dialing *69 and see if it goes through. It might give you a number and then go from there.

Be aware that call blocking is controlled at the provider level. You can simply call your telephone service provider and have them block the number so that all their future calls are filtered from coming through.

I suggest you report the pranksters to http://www.callercenter.com too for phone call harassment. With his phone number posted on the website, let's see how he'd feel if somebody else starts calling him, too.

  • Why does my iPhone not make a sound when I receive a text from an unknown number? When I get a text message from a number that is not in my phone, my phone lights up and shows that I have a text but does not make a sound or ring. Can I change that somehow? I have an iPhone 5.
  • Why did I get a text message from an Unknown number? So I have an iPhone 4 and I got a text message from an Unknown Number. Not a number that I don't know, it literally said "Unknown" where the number was supposed to be. There was no text in the message, and I responded with, "Hi, who's this?" and I got one of those error messages in return. What does this mean? How do you even send a text message from a blocked number?
  • Unknown number keeps texting me a blank message? A number keeps texting me a blank message, but instead of a number sending it to me, it simply says Unknown. I thought it was an error in something, then it happened two more times. Is it a person or just something messing up? I mean they're not saying anything, it's like they clicked the space button and sent the message. By the way, I have an iPhone.
  • Unknown iPhone passcode set by unknown person? A passcode has been set on my iPhone without me knowing, now it is locked up. It says here to connect it to my computer and back up then restore my iPhone. Will this clear everything off my phone or will it be the same as it was before it got locked? I have only attempted unlocking it about 5 times in fear of disabling it. I do not want to back up then restore it if it will clear everything off and transfer it to the computer. Are there any alternatives to unlocking my iPhone?
