Hi everyone! I have a question regarding correct format for UK phone (mobile) numbers. I read somewhere that these numbers usually belong to international call forwarding services. I'm asking this because I was contacted by +4474 n. and the lady had terrible English. I added her on Skype but it says her location is Lagos, Nigeria and she claims to live in UK. Is this a scam? Her e-mail is [email protected]
Thanks

The mobile phone numbers beginning with 4470 sound like UK numbers but are not.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephone_ ... telephones gives a far better explanation than I ever could.
An earlier post on viewtopic.php?f=26&t=13567 gives a good description of these 4470 mobile phone numbers. Hope that is of assistance.
