Well I got calls from some numbers in the past like that, but now I get calls making me listen to stupid 90s HINDI songs from film aashiqui etc and then telling me to dial 0 to download this song <play song>, 1 to download <play song> etc!!Vishal Gupta said:Guys!
Its strange. My father is getting a mysterious call from +918040228400 on his cell phone.
When he attend the call, no voice comes and after a few seconds the call ends.
When he tried to call back, it says "The no. doesnt exist".
Whats the matter? Can some one throw some light?
Its easy I noticed it comes from same spammer so I have made a reject profile for it!! U may do the same!!

^Well its '3220', old but still rocking. I have made a profile called "spam" and keep adding such numbers in it and on the top of it dedicated a different ring tone to it!! So wheneva such number comes, "spam" hi-lights, rings and buzzes. No need to pay attention to it.
Actually in my friend's Mobile N-93 or N-73 I guess, he can even reject such calls as the phone offers such feature/protection!! Its was really getting annoying when a call used to come and all u got to listen was "Chaha to bahut, na chahein tumhe"!

You must complaint your Cell Phone Operator for this
Last year in Mumbai
their was a group of engineers who made some softwares & machines for hacking international phone calls
Actually what they do is
for eg
If someone from USA makes ISD to India or vice versa the charges for call is Rs. 15 (for eg) in this Indian Govt also get some 7-8 rs. as a tax
Now wht they do is
they hacks the phone lines & whenever their is a call from abroad countries they convert it with help of their Computers, Softwares & Machine
& make it appear like its a Local call, so govt get only 50 paise as a tax
In this process the number changes to any odd no. or even sometime its appears "unknown number" on the mobile screen.
Now a days also in mumbai we get SMS from our mobile operator that if we receive any international call & if the odd or unknown or local numbers appears on screen than pls call customer care
So May be someone has inveted the same technique in your city..........

I suggest try calling 91-080-40228400. i am telling this coz my crappy beetel landline phone drops the first zero off most incoming numbers and calling back gives The no. doesnt exist. When i redial with intial zero the call goes thru. So like someone suggested its a bangalore number.
@vish - Nah it doesn't cost. www.gizmocall.com allows u to call frm net to mobile for free. Sometimes it works and sometimes doesn't. Some no. like 9xxx888888 appears. (Bhoot )
