telephone area code 919 Solved

Question

Hello everyone! I recently received a super weird text on my phone, like "I left you my number for nothing, you still haven't called me back, here's my number: 08....
Quite suspicious since I haven't given my number to people I don't know!!!
Even weirder, the number that sent me this text is in the form +919 -- -- -- -- --
So I suppose that 919 is a code, but I can't find out what it corresponds to online!!
Is there anyone who can shed some light on this?

Thanks in advance,

Lamarmotte

Stop at the number in question. And do nothing else except stop at the number in question.

I just received a text message from +919948559989, and I believe it's from someone Arabic. The message is: EID MUBARK c abare but I don't know which country.

Good evening,

This is not a message from +919, but from +91 ** ********, and +91 is the code for India. Personally, I've tried to respond and even call them (business phone, I assure you ;p), but either the number is not assigned, or the connection drops before the waiting tone.

This has been happening to me since I signed up on sites for free VoIP like VoiPCheap or ippi.fr.

I received the same message from +919821154758, so it's someone who has nothing better to do than...3..

Re!
I have an idea, if we receive another text from that 919, we need to have at least 10 people send him a text simultaneously (at the same second to send the text) and maybe we’ll manage to block or bug his phone!!!!

Hi, I received the same message from 919...., don’t worry, they are people who do this with programs and that’s about it, the main thing is not to respond.

Hi  even without a response, it's annoying: one text message a day in English for a month, always at the same time: +919826094252  See you!

tita · Answer

Hi everyone, I have the same problem but always just one beep, I don't understand why and it's not an Arabic number anyway.

mghlamine · Answer

I am in Algeria and I get a beep once a week approximately; I tried to call back but I'm told the number is not assigned... I would like to know which countries these calls are coming from.

mghlamine · Answer

In fact, the number is +919 853 1456.

chanie · Answer

I just received an email sending me money and whose number starts with 919.

jerrylee · Answer

Do not follow up on this kind of SMS or calls at all, it's definitely phishing. If you respond in any way, they will have confirmation that the number is active, and it will be one more number they can sell in bulk for advertising purposes.

Moreover, most of the time, as soon as you try to call back or send a text, you are directly charged several euros, so don't pay attention to it, even though it's irritating to receive such calls or texts repeatedly (and generally, when they call you, it only rings once and hangs up in the hope that the sucker will call back).

Hello, the prefix is that of India. Regarding the following numbers, if they start with an 8, they are premium service numbers; if they start with a 6, it is a mobile number.
