called rang once do NOT call back!!!!!!!!!!!!

2687620040 - i received a few calls from this number in the past days, never answered, and thankfully didn't call back until I researched the number.

Informational Post : ***Warning***

One and two ring calls from Caribbean Country's (Montserrat, Dominica,Jamaica, Grenada,  Antiqua and Barbados, Saint Lucia..) should not be called back! These calls are done so you will call them back and cram your phone bill with high Call costs:

Pretty sure I don't need to talk to anyone from the Caribbean...

10:30 pm ... called cell phone and hung up

Rang once at 10:42 pm eastern time and hung up.

1 268 762 0031.  One ring and hung up.

Rang twice and hung up

Called at 5:30am, rang once and hung up.

Called on 1/24 @ 9:32pm - missed the call
Called again 1/27 @ 8:59am - answered and call was disconnected

Second weird number I've had to block in two weeks - never had this problem before.

I saw the messages below prior to calling back.
What can one now do to avoid getting one's phone bill crammed?

Thank you.

keep getting random calls form this number

Called once, tried to call back thank goodness I have a block on my phone (told me that I am blocked from calling these numbers) or I would've been screwed! Do NOT call this number!

The area code is from Antigua/Barbuda! Blocking it...

Just got 2 calls from that number. They called then turned around and called again.

Just called me from 268.762.0040. week prior got a call from 413.456.1946. DO NOT ANSWER. IT'S A SCAM!

Area code 268 is the telephone area code of Antigua and Barbuda.
Area code 473 is the local telephone area code of Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique.

boy i love scammers! what won't they think of next
got a call on the last day of 2013 on 1-473-520-9757
same dangerous neighborhood?
don't they have anything better to do in para-dice  so early in the morning?
i konw i sure do...

Noticed a missed call 268 762-0040 from Antigua/Barbuda this am and googled the area code, this is a scam! From all these posts, I'm glad I did not call, nor do I call a number that I do not know.  Be careful.

Three rings and then they hung up.  I don't return calls from numbers I don't recognize, but I'm sure glad warnings were posted here to dissuade others from calling back.

Thanks for heads up, checked my other database but no record of this so double checked it here. I have posted my reply and some of yours (names deleted) on the other database so it comes up on that one also. Knew I had seen something somewhere on the area code and you are all correct, this scam will rocket your phone bill through the roof if you call back. Usually one or two rings and they hang up or instantly disconnect if you catch it on the first ring. As stated in all the other posts here, DO NOT CALL BACK!!!! Unless you just want to throw away money in which case you can just send it to me for my retirement fund lol.

P.S. For 800notes.com, need to add SCAM to Call Type.
