If you are one of those people that is getting a call from unknown international numbers, Vodafone Fiji is today saying don’t answer those calls.
It says some of these calls maybe coming from scam operators based in other countries with an intention to defraud you.
People have raised concerns with us about getting unknown international calls from random numbers saying that those numbers give them one call and then hang up.
Acting Chief Marketing Officer of Vodafone Fiji, Shailendra Prasad says they have identified the current set of calls originating from Yemen and have taken it up with the network operator in the country to block these numbers.
He says network operators around the world have an understanding and bilateral agreements to pass calls from one network to another to facilitate easier communications around the world.
Prasad says they do not screen every call on their network to determine whether a call is genuine or made from scam operators.
He says they would be prying into the private conversation of two parties and this would be a breach of customer confidentiality and privacy.
