[jahobo]

the hell is skype ???

[teknical]

its a computer program that allows phone calls, the numbers are always random: all 0's, 123-456-7893, etc.

www.skype.com you can call from your computer, contact them for harassment issues

They also can't hide their identity since they had to use their credit card to add outgoing call credits

Well not nessicarliy skype but definitely from a VOIP source, so it could come from anywhere really, and im not sure if you can do reverse lookups or not. I dont think so since they seem to make hundreds of calls from the same number.

Also, there is a number you can call (some sort of prank line)
Then type in the real number you want to call, then you type in a fake number that shows up on call display.
Probably not it, but that is a small possibility.

usually nobody talks or anything when the call is answered
but ill look into this skype thing more

Hey do you have Shaw phone? That's weird that shaw didn't do anything. I used to get these a lot but then i used the shaw blocking system? don't get them anymore. press #60 then follow the instructions. Hopefully that works.

[jahobo]

ill give that a shot


the csr told me that i couldnt do anything about it but ill try that #60
