beware of phone sex invites

14 Mar 2006

Should really be in the cafe this as its a discussion. But about 3 weeks ago I got a PM from a user i've never heard of at 2am Saturday morning telling me she wants me to and I qoute "Fill My Arse" and to reply with my phone number and a safe time to call. Now being the inquisitive type :twisted: I checked out the profile pics. Now i'm not throwing acusations about but she was stunning and whilst they werrn't professional pics they had been well taken/ lit and accesorised sort of to good to be true I thought. Also she lived 3 hours away from me so it wasn't a case of finding me in a local postcode search. As I reply to all PM's I get nice or not I was happy to send a big thanks but no thanks to this particuler user. I'm not sure if my number could have been used in an untoward way. But I guess it serves as a reminder to think very clearly with your brains and not your balls................... also that having a seperate pay as you go sim card for your phone (for swinging purposes only) that way when the credit runs out you can't get a huge bill and you can just throw the card away. smile

how can u clone a number, ive had really strange numbers recently - some tried phoning me with this prefix of a number 07028............... I tried calling it back - it said it was an erorr and texting it caused the text to fail. does anyone know what this is?

If you come across ads ON HERE that ask for you to ring premium rate numbers or after first contact they ask you to ring a premium rate number, then either click 'report this ad' or report the profile of the member to the Mods. Even if just a bit suspicious, report it. It helps build up a pic of the person and gives them evidence to act.
Ultimately it's for your benefit.

This sounds like bullshit to me. Stay away from premium numbers, but no one can 'clone' your phone number, the technology simply doesn't work like that.
Edit: I mean cloning through just having your number. It is possible to clone mobile phones, but it's a LOT more complex than that and I'm not even sure if it IS still possible.

they can clone credit cards, finger prints, rental scans etc all they need is to clone ur sim card

Yes, it used to be with the analogue mobile phones they where easy to clone, but that was a long time ago then everyone moved over to the digital mobiles which at the time you couldnt clone, but now days you can clone digital ones as well.

Agree that the analogue phones could be & were cloned but do not agree that people can now clone digital phones. There are a lot of companies that scam people but that is just down to your own intelligence, if you get a missed call from an unknown number, if its important they will ring you back or leave a message. If curiosity gets the better of you, providing its the last caller you can ring your network & get them to check if it is a standard UK number or if it is some international number.

I have two phones and so two numbers I only ever give my number out to people i want to have it and in that case i get there number as well, I never then answer an Private Number call on my mobile .
I someone has my number and i dont have theres then i dont know them so i dont answer the phone.

Yeah, but it's one thing to have physical access - quite another to do it using a phone number.

I've posted this somewhere else. And I'm not sure it's relevant to this thread but it might be useful.
My ordinary landline phone rings. As soon as I answer the phone goes dead. 1471 gives the calling number as an 0870 number. It did it this morning and it has done it maybe hlf a dozen times in the last two or three weeks.
I have never rung it back because I read somewhere that it can be a ploy to get me to ring back and incur huge phone charges.
Just a thought. Just an experience.

You're exactly right about that - it is a common con, and you're right not to return the call.

yup exactrly the same here but im not sure if its a pay site
start 0845
anyone ??

0845 is a local number - so unlikely to be a scam. It could be telemarketing though - they do some annoying things.

15 Mar 2006

Telemarketing companies use a computer to dial numbers from a list, and if answered, then connect to a call centre worker who will talk to you. If all the workers are otherwise engaged at that moment, the phone will immediately go dead as there is no on to talk to you. Hence a large number of 'silent' phone calls, mainly from numbers beginning 08

Yes cards can be cloned, but the card is needed to do it. With chip and pin the card starts to show two histories and the deception is detectable.
Yes finger prints can be cloned with silicon rubber.
No retinal scans can not be cloned the eye operation is impossible.
Yes sim cards can be cloned. The card is needed, or the card holder can send the necessary information to the cloner. DO NOT press any keys on your phone when someone phones you. There are ways of sending card details down the phone line, this is done by the phone user inputting a code. DO NOT believe any claim that is too good to be true, it normally is.

After coming very close to falling victim of a Nigerian scammer, I'm extremely careful ! Must be the only time my normally good judge of character trait has failed me :doh:

If all someone needs to clone a number is to have the number - why bother asking for your number - why not just make numbers up????? They are bound to strike lucky.

Mic you would be amazed at the amount of folk who would never connect the two, honest, even some of the more seasoned campaigners redface

as for other scams, i will post this link, it may or may not get deleted as I am a bit confused about the current AUP but I think it could benefit many, so here it is:

Publish and be dammed lol

But seriously TO THE MODS Iâ€™m sure this is a non profit, non sex / swing site, and I do believe it could be of use to everyone on here.

But surely if you phone someone that means you've already got their number?
