Got A Call With No Caller ID? Find Out Who It Is!
If you've ever asked " Whose phone number is this " then you're in the right place. Search Over 2 Billion Phone Numbers.
If you missed a landline call, you may be able to find out who called if you have caller ID and a phone that stores a log of recent calls. Check the log and you may be able to see the phone number that called. You may also see an individual or company name associated with the number.
Knowing who is calling you is sometimes easy as (in some cases) you can just look at your Caller ID to get the necessary caller details. However, if your Caller ID isn’t displaying the owner of the phone number in question, there’s another method that makes it easy to find out who is calling you.
If only a phone number is displayed and no name, you may be able to find the owner of the number by doing a reverse phone number search online. In many cases, you can type in a phone number and find out who it is. Unfortunately, caller ID technology allows scammers to make it look like a different number has called you, so you can't always rely on the validity of caller ID information.

If the number is displayed, look it up online. Crammers call from countries with the same international code (+1) as the USA, so they look like domestic calls. However, if you search the numbers, you can identify them as foreign by their area code.
- A good rule of thumb is that if you don't recognize the area code, don't answer.
- Many of these calls come from the Dominican Republic (809), Jamaica (876), British Virgin Islands (284) and Grenada (473).
- Don't pick up 900 numbers, those numbers are premium-rate numbers that bill the calling party.
- There are also services online that allow you to look up numbers. Search for "reverse lookup" or "find out who called me."
Someone trying to call you about a serious matter will either leave a phone message or contact you by other means. If you get a missed call from a number you don't know, or a blocked number, it probably isn't important. Don't call back!
- If they do leave a message, or the number that called is an 800 (toll-free) number, go ahead and call them back.
- Crammers will never leave a message, because they are operating on an extremely limited profit margin and can't afford the international call.
