How do I join the forum on 'restricted' call? I bought a cheap verizon phone from walmart about a year ago and started receiving a call about a month ago at odd times of the day. It says 'restricted' on the caller ID and when I answer it there is no one there. There is also no record of the call coming in. My phone even answers the call sometimes and stays logged in if I don't push 'end'. I do my best to not be paranoid and am doing nothing wrong, but it is really weird and I feel violated by something. Should I just discard the phone and go to another provider? Thanks!
 
Solution
If you are paying for service from Verizon, I would recommend taking the phone to them. You may have to get a new SIM card and maybe a new number. The carrier is the best way to get to the bottom of it.
