Who doesn't hate those calls that come through in the middle of the night only to find that it is only a prank call? Have you received a call from an unknown or unlisted phone number on your home or cell phone lately? If you answered yes to all these questions, then this article is for you. I will provide some useful insights about tracing prank callers and towards the end of the article, will discuss briefly a way to deal with the prank callers. Incase you were not aware; you can find a prank caller by doing a reverse phone look up. This means you can also find reverse phone details on the caller who keeps irritating you. This can be done by keying in a phone number and then finding out whose it is. In most instances, the reverse search service providers will charge you for using their service but it is possible to find those that offer it free of charge. This means then that in order to do a reverse phone trace of any type whether cell number or fixed line, you will most definitely part with some cash. Do not give up just yet as I will provide some few tips on how you can go about doing it on your own. Understanding the reverse phone look up service The reverse phone lookup services gather information from public records and other sources online. This is then kept in a database where it is accessed using search engine format queries. While these sites are good for providing caller information i.e. to do a reverse cell look up, they do not always provide private and unlisted number information. So the meaning of this is that if the caller has privatized or unlisted his or her number, you may not be able to trace it. The closest information you can obtain is his or her whereabouts. You can increase your chances, however, by paying for the look up service. Note however that sometimes even if you pay you may not be able to trace the number. In this case it would mean that you are dealing with an unlisted and protected landline, or that the number is mobile. Find it through search engines Search engines like Google can help you find any unlisted, mobile or fixed line caller number. This is one of the best free ways to find the annoying caller. It is possible to come out empty handed though. This is when you should consider using services like Reverse Phone Trace to conduct your reverse cell phone lookup. In olden times services like this were only reserved for government agencies but today any one, including you can access them at a fee of course. The best way to avoid prank calls You can do this by having your number removed from the white pages. This way you can keep you cell number private. The other advantage of removing your number is that you limit the amount of information that can be accessed by someone looking to use a reverse finder on you. |
