i've been getting calls from the 310 area code (Santa Monica, CA, i think). when i answer, i just get beeps. i know it's not bill collectors or someone else who might have a reason to call me at nearly effin' midnight. so i assume it's a company trying to call me ...

how do i figure out what company this number belongs to so i can call them on their main line and rip somebody a new one?

Or just type the number into google. It usually has something listed unless it's a cell phone...

I have a reverse directory program at  work............ and another source (both [leo]).

Most leo agencies should have the same if you wanna make an "Annoting phone calls/ harassment rpt.

it's illegal for bill collectors to call that late.

this is the only source that had any information. even google didn't show anything 'cause it was an automagic computer on a dedicated fax line.

called these guys and found out that it was some insurance company who's computer freaked out and tried to fax a bunch of stuff to random numbers. i guess this company's number is close or something, so they've been getting calls like mine all morning. incompetent bastards waking my ass up in the middle of the night.... [grumble, grumble]

thanks ya'll.

back to your regularly scheduled programming.  [coffee]
