Cell question.

psychochild28 · 12-22-2009, 06:25 PM

Ok hopefully someone can help out.

I think I have someone trying to hack into my voicemail. It's happened twice in less than a month. I get on to check a voicemail and it says there have been too many unsuccessful attempts to access this account and then it will say when the time was that the last attempt was made. And the one time was at 3:30 ish in the morning (was sound asleep casue I had to be at work the next day) And the second time was 1:30am and the phone was sitting next to me but I wasn't on it.

Anyone ever had this issue? Just wondering but I'm going to verizon tomorrow.

can't say I have but since my cell is primarily a work number if they can access my VM they can do the work that each leads to as well

change your cell number and only give it to people you want to have it. Then if it does it again, you know it's one of your "friends"

Or, call 6-1-1 and ask THEM who is trying to access your account. They should be able to give you the details. At least, I know TMobile can with their accounts.

leave a voicemail something like "don't forget our ultrasound appointment tomorrow - I can't wait!" and then see who calls you first.

Yea only bad thing with that is my work sends out cards with everyone's number so if anyone needs it they can call. So ppl who I wouldn't want to have the new number could still get it.

Why wouldn't you want someone with work to have your number? That seems like it would make sense... unless you work with stalkers, then it's up to you to change that. ooooOOoooo How about getting a disposable phone for work?

Did you talk to Verizon yet? Oh, sorry - that last question makes sense... scratch that.

Unless work pays for your phone, you can tell them to go fuck themselves if they want your cell number. If they have to have a contact number for you, get a basic lan line with no frills and give them that.

Wait, unless your COMPANY pays for your cell service, they shouldn't be giving out your number at all.

That said, if they DO pay for it, enlist their help in solving this issue.
