Yes, you prolly guessed it. I think i have a cheating wife on my hands. In my cellphone billing, i have found one peticular number thats being dialed ona daily basis and I am rather suspicious about it. I'm not quite ready to confront her about it and would rather do some research before I drop the bomb.

Obviously I dont want to call the number in question, what with caller ID being the norm. Is there a way to trace at least the billing name of a cell phone number?

If your wife/gf, husband/bf was suspected of cheating, what would you do to figure out where a suspicious number originated from?

Block your caller id and call the number. Use some social engineering to get their location.

there are web sites that will give cell phone data, not sure if they give you the name of the account holder, they might

i think they are sort of illegal, but for $40 or $50 you can get all of their info or call records or something

The music played with it is what made it hilarious! Plus the randomness of it all.. Come on.. I was annoyed at first then found it quite funny.

go to another phone (like a friends work) and call and leave a message saying you found a credit card of theirs, and this was the number the CC company gave you to contact them. Should get some info that way :D

Try a reverse phone directory first. If it's a listed landline you should get a name/address.
