Received a collect call today from this # and it asked for a credit card # stating it was a collect call from my sons friend. It has my sons friend voice on it. I knew he was going to Texas so I thought something was wrong and input my cc # but the system said it was declined which it shouldn't been. Now I am afraid that was a big mistake. Called the number back and answering message that the call couldnt be completed.
this call is also coming from a pay phone in Lake Butler, Florida, from all that I found out this is a generic number that is used by a telephone compnay out of Texas that has pay phones all over the united states, any time a person uses these pay phones, it is re rounted back to the Texas headquarters and then from there to your phone, The person calling can be right up the road from your house using a pay phone and yet the call is coming from the Texas phone companies headquarters in Texas.
I received a call from this number here in Indiana today at 1:51pm Eastern time. Didn't recognize the #, but it came up as "ILD Comm". No message left.
Gor several calls from this number last night and this morning...
Didn't recognize it so let the fax machine get it.
You'd think they'd learn to send a fax.
The number is the number to a prison. A friend of mine is currently locked up there and called us to tell us he was using his complimentary phone call. Hope this clears up some problems for people.
