Let’s all call it so OP can obscure his identity.

I wouldn’t even call that number from a pay phone. People are weird and sick.

I've never seen this before but, personally I wouldn't call random numbers.

Yeah, to be honest itd be a bit paranoid. If you called it, now they have a number associated with the address.

I mean, it was out of service, so if this is some kind of mastermind... they probably aren't...

(Also, pro-tip: if you want to call a number without leaving a trace, just use a new Google Voice number.)

(Also, pro-tip: I doubt anybody does clever identity theft heists by writing phone numbers with sharpies on fences.)

Its not very hard to lookup a random address and find who lives there, their phone number, email address and known associates.

Does *67 still actually do anything? That’s what I’d use if I was calling a random number, but I’m old.

Hi Everyone! Thanks for all the help. I called the number anonymously and found that out. If anyone can dig up any info about this I’m sure the community and I would love to know. Hope it’s nothing nefarious.

What was on the other end when you called it? Just the info in the original post, or anything else?

Your whole community doesn't want to call out of fear so you ask random innocent strangers to do it? You're weird and not kind. Google it.

Who ever wrote it on your gate has your address, and with your address they can find your name

And now they have your phone number...

I'm probably being paranoid but they could be farming for your identity

Are you guessing or did you confirm?

That’s what I initially thought. Hopefully some agent just being cheeky.

It’s probably a person mad at another person and putting their phone number out there to annoy them

This oddly reminds me of the time when someone left a seedy business card with a picture of a girl and her social media profiles on my windshield. Of course I looked up the IG and saw that I had mutual friends in common with the person. It was odd to say the least.

Was the person a legume named social media profile?

Hot-Ad2515 t1_iuijyqd wrote

It's just for a burner phone. They called it, got the drop location from the person that answered that number. Then they tossed the phone.

Replace the “212” with “201” and call it.

Looks like a Verizon landline but no name attached to it. I did a reverse number look up.

I guess if anyone wants a 212 number, try and get it
