Dear Nairalanders,

Please be aware of a recent trend where some mobile phone users are called from the following numbers: +375602605281, +37127913091 or number starting with a +375, +371, +381 numbers. When a call is received from these numbers, the mobile phone ring once and disconnects leaving a missed call message. If you call the numbers back, you would be charged and account balance will deplete.

To avoid the One Ring Scam, kindly take note of the under listed actions.

• If the phone only rings once and you don’t recognize the number, don’t call back.

• If you do think you should make the call, check the number through online directories first. You will be able to identify where the phone number is registered

• Be aware of and wary of these area code numbers, they look legitimate from the US but they are not.

Stop blaming your service provider for missing airtime. Protect your airtime

No need to warn person.
The exhorbitant rates our service providers charge for international calls is enough to make us 'hiss and forget instantly' when any strange foreign number calls.

Tnx for info

Not only ringing. Some will send you a text saying; "call back, its urgent" or "I miss you"
