If you have a phone number of a crank caller can you find out who the person is and where they are calling from?

yea call your local telephone company and have them trace the call. Weather they block the caller ID or not it still shows up in the records kept by the telephone company.
Had some kid do that to me a few months ago, lesoned he learnd never prank call a telephone repair man. I called back and got his mother, she didnt seem to happy.
When you get a hold of the telephone company make sure you have the exact time and date. It makes it alot easier for us to find out who the caller is. And dont let customer service say they cant do that. They are dumb and i had to agure with them about 15 mins before i talked to someone that new what was goin on.
If you get the number and talk to some kids parents let them know that it is against the law to make prank phone calls. Check your local telephone book it should state it in the front.
Hope that helps

Yeah, try calling the phone company and asking them. You can also do the star 67 option, that is if you have it as an option, otherwise call the phone company and explain what is going on, they can usually have the call traced. If you have caller ID, call information and get the name that way, granted it will cost you to do this, but you'll be able to find out or just call the number itself and maybe you'll get an answering machine!

Go to whitepages.com there is a service there called reverse phone listings or something like that. You put in the number and it should give you something like an address or a town maybe.
