Greeting guys. I have got a quick question. I have been receiving calls from private number for the past 4 months plus, The catch is the caller does say a word, Sometimes I can hear background songs, sometimes I can hear the caller breathing, and sometimes sound like fan is running in the background. In one day I will receive about 20 plus calls and also these calls last about 10sec each. I also receive this calls at midnight sometimes at around 3 or 4 in the morning. I approached my cousin brother who is an inspector about this, according to him if there is no verbal threat from that call I cant make any type of report, and even I make a report only the officers will find out the number and deal with the person. I even tried scolding, shouting even cursed at the caller but still receiving the call. If I choose not to answer the call frequency is higher. Im using maxis by the way and im using this number since 1998. So here I am hoping someone will shed some light on this issue. Is there any chances that I can find out the number or identify the caller, is there any chances I can trace this number. Please advice.

Just go make a report lah, then take the report, go complain to MCMC again. let them investigate and deal with the owner of the private number. Nowadays private number is so easy. just need to pay subscription to telco to get it.

Or you can call them back and let them hear your heavy breathing. This post has been edited by raynman: Feb 16 2016, 05:44 PM

But it seems like there is some apps that can do it. Also there is a setting in our phone where we can limit to receive only calls from the numbers that exists in our phone book. But its a hassle, I receive a lot of call from my suppliers and customers..
