Hello,

For some time now, a number has been calling me (+26134039****) and another (209) is sending me messages asking me to call the first number. Does anyone know which country this number comes from?
Thank you

    Hello, in general, numbers starting with 2 or 26 come from Africa, NEVER mention them again as there may be additional charges involved.

      That's what I was thinking. Thank you for your confirmation.

      It is true that zone 2 covers all of Africa (including the islands of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans), as well as some areas of North America (Greenland and Aruba) and Europe (the Faroe Islands).
      However, there is no area code +26 anywhere, so be wary!!!

      Be careful, scams involve calls asking you to return a call to a 0026 code from Africa, never call back, I had a 00 26 37 etc.... Zimbabwe country best regards
