    Answered twice and cut her off after about 30 seconds. Now she keeps ringing and I just press the no answer key. She's now texting me.</p>

    Just wondering if it's a scam that charges you for answering.</p>

    They cant charge you for answering the call. It may however cost you a fortune to phone her back.

    Funny you say that!

    I recieved 3 calls on friday night from a weird bird asking for Simon. She wouldnt have it that she had the wrong number. Anyhow the third time i answered her call i said i were this Simon. We then had a full on 10 minute conversation about ***** "I havent seen you in ages" "Hows you?" "You coming around tonight were waiting for you" etc... Very very strange! Could be linked with your calls.
