How do you figure out someone's real number when they use the *67 (the ID block)? Yesterday, my friend pranked her friend's house on private, and her friend's mother called back angry and threatening to tell her parents. I'm just wondering because I get a lot of private calls and would like to know who keeps calling and hanging up. Thanks :)

hope i helped, and please rate me!!! [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]

I have a private number by requiest though, and noones been able to figure it out when I prank people, h aha. Sorry doll. [ VainTaraLynn's advice column | Ask VainTaraLynn A Question ]

When you dial *67 you totally block your number. im pretty sure theres no way you can get the real number. =/ I know it sucks..but there may be way but not that I know of!

When someone calls with a blocked number, they receive a message that they have to unblock their number to get through. Some phone companies offer this service for free and some charge up to $7 a month. Another option is to notify your phone company and your local law enforcement that you're getting harassing phone calls. They can set up a trace on your phone line which will let them know exactly what number is calling. [ ncblondie's advice column | Ask ncblondie A Question ]

t0xicParadiSe answered Thursday August 11 2005, 8:28 pm: you could try *69
it works sometimes but im not sure if it might work in your case but give it a try
azngemini answered Thursday August 11 2005, 8:19 pm: omg, this is such a big coincidence. everyday someone calls my house and hangs up whenever i pick up the phone, it happened this morning also. and i always wanted to kno their number so i can call back and do the same thing to them everyday. what you do is after they call you, and after you hang up, dial *69. then like a machine operated woman, i think thats what they're called, will tell you what the person's number is. the bad thing is that i think they charge you a quarter or even more everytime you do this.
oh, i dont know if this works if the person blocked their id, but you can give it a try
