Hello,

My friend went to Madagascar. Do these calls come from there? How can I know where he's calling from? Thank you

This is my close friend, who is a manipulator and a liar, but unfortunately I love him, and I would like to know where he is right now. I’m trying every means as long as it’s free. Thank you for your kindness in responding to me.

    Hello to you too
    
    A number doesn't mean much anymore since the "most skilled" scammers can manipulate the display of any number they want to confuse their target...
    In short, it's the scenarios that should be relied upon when you have this kind of concern...

Well... 33, that's France, right?!
Is it a TRUE friend, or an "acquaintance" from the Internet?!

  Thank you for your response, but actually it's my friend who tells me he is in Madagascar. The strange thing is that the phone number starts with +33 and I would like to know where he is really calling me from because logically it costs a lot. Thank you for your help.

manipulator and liar ..and not clever, on top of that!
Don't think about hiding your number.....!
You can look for the number that appears in the reverse directory...there are free ones...

Hello

Aside from that, if your friend has a French number and calls you from Madagascar with his French number, it will be a +33, that makes sense.

  So: moderator or moderator?! ;)
  Okay...good note taken!
  That said, during a call, nothing indicates that he is calling from abroad?

  Since "auteure," "professeure," and others like "plus pire"... why not "modérateuse?!" ;)
  That said, I didn't quite understand your answer:
  if a French mobile calls from "pétaouchnok," in any country, does the number that shows up on the phone receiving the call in FRANCE not indicate that the call is coming from abroad?

ok so he would really be in Madagascar? I hope he’s not lying to me again, but how can I check? Thanks for your reply

  Well, in my opinion, it proves NOTHING AT ALL, since his number displays the same whether he is in France, in the Comoros, or in Vladivostok!
  The only certain thing is that he uses a mobile phone with a subscription from France.
