i don't think so.
Is there any way to trace a call that shows up as Private Caller?
i don't think so.
for money sure
For money sure yes or for money sure no?
ANd how much money?
cell phone or land line?
if you pay the right person money you can track who called you
what ever amount they demand you have to pay them
I received a threatening call on my house phone today.
call the authorities and they could do it for free
hope you get it taken care of
2Blonde, get Privacy Manager. I have it and it's great.
Privacy Manager® is a service that screens your calls so you know who it is before you pick up.
Pricing
$6.99 per month
$5.00 one time installation fee
Availability
Privacy Manager is currently available only in the following areas.
Texas
* Abilene
* Amarillo
* Austin
* Beaumont
* Dallas/Ft. Worth
* Houston
* Lubbock
* San Antonio
What will it do for me?
* Protect your privacy — A recording will notify the caller that you do not accept unidentified, anonymous, or out of area calls. A series of choices will guide the caller to self-identify. You then have four options for handling the call: send to voice mail, accept, decline or place on a do not call list if the caller is a telemarketer. To hear a demonstration of the service call 1-888-560-9299.
* Save time — If a phone solicitor calls, one of the options you have is to be placed on a telemarketer's do not call list. This prevents you from having to make time to provide a written request or call to have this done.
* Have peace of mind — Our service requires that callers self identify or the phone doesn't even ring. This keeps you from dealing with annoying or unwanted calls.
sounds good
pay Jim50 his money, and you won't get anymore calls
That's awesome S y...
I have TWC digital phone...a lot of times it'll say private on the caller ID, but if they leave a message it will tell you when you listen to your messages. But I'm guessing someone answered?
That sucks...hopefully it was just a prank.
2Blonde - if you report it to the police, then they (and the phone company) can put a tracker on your phone. You won't be able to see the whole list but the investigators will have access to it and you can report further instances to them with times, etc. and they'll be able to look up where it came from.
I had to do that many years ago after receiving about 100 harrassing phone calls a day. I refused to change my number out of principal -- I knew who it was and wanted to catch them. And did.
Anyway, not to get into my past drama, but yes they can track it.
Hopefully it was a one time prank/incident for you.
hey SW.... have seen this?
caller id on tv
You can dance if you want to, you can leave the world behind
Thanks!
ehhh
I found out that that if you have Southwestern Bell all you have to do is hang up and wait 10 seconds then pick up the phone and wait for a dial tone and dial *57. Then it then it tells you if it was successful and gives you a 1-800 number to call. It's called CALL TRACE & it sends the offending caller's info directly to SWB & law enforcement, not to you. Then you file a report with the police.

Now I hope the JackAss calls back again. I'm good and pissed now. He caught me off guard before but now I'm ready for him.
I thought all phones responded to *69...That would redial the caller without you knowing the number...It won’t work with telemarketers but it is great with prank calls...
Offender call comes in...You call him back by * 69...
Hmm excuse me I don’t believe we concluded our business...
Believe me they are shocked when you ring them back....
That only calls someone back if they are in the area and don't have a blocked or private number. Also it doesn't log the call with the telephone company for use in prosecution. This is for harrassing or threatening phone calls.
