This is the Story. Someone left a harassing message on my soon to be ex MIL

cell phone.

Now since my husband and I are going through this Divorce I chalk it up to to someone on his side and blaming me. Now I called the cell number but the message says that the caller is not accepting calls at this time. Does anyone have any suggestions? Even on who the carrier is? I have Cingular and it does not say this message when I shut it off ( I checked). Thanks

I dont even know how to turn on a cell phone... LOL I am up with the times on everything else but a cell phone.... It seems though when I call my sisters phone and she has it off it will say that.. She is with T-Moble. Sorry I couldnt be of much help... btw: I think that is just sick that someone can do that and try to blame you!!! I hope you find out who it was!!!!

Thank you Trish.. I am on the phone with my carrier now to see what they suggest.

Have your ex get his mom's cell phone records from the local store outlet(this can be done). The store (I think) can tell you which service the number is from(Sprint, cingular, etc.).... then go from there???

I say let HIM prove your innocence. No matter what YOU do- they are gonna think you are trying to cover something.

After youve gone nuts over this -in their eyes- you are still gonna be the bad one!

So someone left a message on his mother's phone, claiming to be you? Or was it harrassing you? I'm not following...

Whomever the owner of the cell phone is can, like Paula said, get call records through their carrier. Her phone, if she has caller ID, should also have logged the originator's number - in which case you can try a reverse directory search (this is on the internet, not through the cell phone company) and find out the name of who placed the call.

the message says that the caller is not accepting calls at this time

My son has T-Mobile prepay plan and I get that message when he hasn't put any money (minutes) on his phone..

My daughter also has T-Mobile, but a normal plan and I get that when she doesn't want to talk to anyone and blocks all incoming calls :phanvan

you can find all kinds of phone info and even a location where it is, but if it is unlisted, you can't do it anymore.

www.anywho.com

www.whitepages.com

on both of these you can do telephone searches and reverse searches

Thank you all. The message that was left was on his mom's cell phone.

"" You and your son and ___ And ___ And __ are going to pay. But it was fluent Spanish so they think that I got someone to call. Please I am the kind of person that would be up in their face not call and leave messages.

I talked to my carrier and they were kind enough to tell me that the account is under AT&T / Cingular but has been suspended or shut off. Go figure

You know Paula you are right - there is really nothing I can do but ride this out knowing that I did not even do anything.

Thank you all for the suggestions - Phone links
