Can anybody help me or give me suggestions of what to do when a privite caller keeps calling my moms cell and my house phone and saying my name and my sister's and my moms name really softly... it freaks me out that they call 3 in the morning... what should I do?

Anybody knows how to unblock a private caller?

Call your phone company, they can track who it is and either block them from calling you, or report them to the appropriate authorities. Good luck, that would freak me out, too.

As a potential stalker, there may be a more potentially serious thing to be concerned about.. ALthough it is all too simple to obtain, my concern is reinforced because the person knows your family names and cell numbers. Unless things have changed drastically, the US telco companies are legally limited & restricted in what they can do - publicly - for you. In other words, they solely recommend or offer to block the caller. Talk with their abuse department.

I would also consider involving law enforcement. In any case, you and your family are your strongest advocates. THINK about any disgruntled "friends, boyfriends, neighbors, co-workers, etc.," who would know moms cell and everyone's names. Try and assess who they might be targeting (you, your sis, your mom). Does the caller sound like they are calling from BOTH a land-line a/o a cellphone? Any distinct background noise (e.g. car noise, horns, traffic, radio, TV, silence, background conversations, background telephone ringing, etc)? What time(s) of day or night do they call and NOT call (e. 8-12, 1-5, etc)? What is the display on your moms cell phone?

To help determine possible patterns, keep a running record of times, dates, conversations, noises etc when they call. Consider getting a phone tape recorder. It is likely you may be able to call them back via various traditional methods (e.g. "call return-*69, call trace-*57, etc). Assumming you in the US and your caller does not have a technical understanding of how phone systems works, when you re-dial the "last called number" the (DTMF) tones can be recorded & decoded, thus giving you the callers phone number... :D Although this type of info is only privey to the carrier's engineers, both cell and POTS technologies can readily identify the phone number(s), the subscriber (caller?) name, their billing address a/o physical location (cell tower).

Again, with my very limited perspective on your circumstances, I believe I would personally go a step or 2 further than just having the telco block the caller. This may only mask the problem and accelerate or potentially aggrevate the caller/prankster. Also, as I communications designer, l have worked with some providers, several law enforcement and public safety agencies however, I am NOT in law enforcement nor do I consider myself an authority handling this type of problem.. I tend to be rather straight-fwd and persistent on reaching real/final resolution. In any case, hopefully, some of this verbage I offered will help empower you & your family to rid yourself of this jerk. Please feel free to contact me if you need specifics on the how-to's. I

Good Luck,

P2E

The best way to unblock private caller is by put in use the option of filters in your mobile phone.

I just activated my filters on, on my phone then there are a certain people who try to call me with private, but on my displays it shows their number.

So maybe your mobile phone will be saved.

For the other case of landline phone, I have no idea how can you fix that, best of all is by calling your phone company that provide with network

Anytime someone calls if you push *57 it traces the call I believe ask your phone company first to make sure

I would just call the police.

And ask them to trace the calls back
