How to Track Withheld Phone Calls

When someone you don't know has your cell or home phone number, it can
raise questions about your sense of security as well as privacy. The
easiest way to deal with these and other "spoof" calls is to activate
a block for unknown or unidentified numbers through your telephone
service provider or inyour cell phone's settings or tools options. For
the most part, easy access for tracking withheld calls doesn't exist.
But, there are a couple of ways to find out who's really calling if
you have the time and the know-how.
Difficulty:
Moderately Easy
Things You'll Need:
*. Computer with internet access
*. VoIP service (optional)
Instructions
1.
Contact your local telephone service provider to set up a Call Trace
feature with your service. By pressing "*57" immediately after
disconnection, withheld calls will automatically be traced.This is a
service for landlines onlyand usually only works in the localservice
area.
2.
"Hack" your caller ID by forwarding your phone number to a VoIP number
that is ultimately routed back to any phone with Caller ID
capabilities. The number is first forwarded to a server thathosts
Asterisk open source/free software, which is the same process used in
private branch exchange (PBX) telephone systems. A specific script can
beadded to the Asterisk program to analyze incoming call information
embedded in the blocking behaviorscript used to hide numbers.
3.
Set the Asterisk server to forward the call back to your phone. Once
the information heading to your Caller ID is run through the Asterisk
open sourcescript, information on the origin of the call (as well as
how it was hidden) is displayed on your phone's Caller ID in a
readable format.
4.
Type "Phone Tracing" in your internet browser's search engine to
locate online phone tracing services. Many of these services have
access to a database that contains information on the ownership of
numbers you don't recognize, including any "spoof" (fake) caller ID
displays that are attached.If you have a VoIP system, you can
automatically route anonymous calls to any number of tracing sites or
through the Asterrisk software.
Tips & Warnings
*. Blocking withheld calls is the easiest way to stop receiving them
in the long run and is an option on most cell phones in the tools and
set-up sections.
*. Sometimes answering withheld calls and saying, "Operator, this is
the caller," or "Trap," will makethe caller think you are working with
the police to collect evidence for prosecution and stopcalling. This
is especially effective with prank callers, or callers you feel are
simply trying to annoy you.
*. Most call tracing Web sites and Reverse Call sites are owned and
operated by the same generators of "spoof IDs," that can be purchased
to make a call appear as a cell phone call or different state than the
actual origination of the call(er.)
*. If you feel the number of withheldcalls are become harassing or
threatening - even an over abundance of hang-ups or heavy breathing,
contact your service provider to work with local law enforcement
agency to "trap" callers for prosecution.
*. Be sure to confirm the methods and/or services you use are legal
and provided by legitimate businesses.
