Months ago I used my cell number online for a code verification. Sadly I can't remember for what. I NEVER give my cell number out. utilities and credit cards don't even have it so they don;t call my cell if i miss a payment. they can call my house phone. (yes I still have one because contrary to popular belief I HATE talking on cell phones). I give my number only to friends, family, google, yahoo, twitter facebook -- trusted places like those- and never had a problem.
for the last few months I have gotten more phone calls from all over the country than I have in the last 5 years having this phone number.
Here's just a small list and my call log on my phone only goes back to Oct 16th so this list is larger. I can't block any specific number because it's ALWAYS JUST one CALL, FROM EACH NUMBER. NOT ONE of these numbers calls me more than once. I WISH I could remember who I used the text verification for so I could rip them a new one. Today's number was just another one to add to the list.
