Open Question: phonecall (maybe prank) from someone called jenny, about hospital results?

Published on January 10, 2010 by Technology Slice

Hi,

I’m abit confused, just recently, my uncle had received calls from his skype phone, from some unknown caller. When he picked it up, it was some lady who said that she has hs family’s test results.

We thouht it was someone pranking us, or someone with wrong number. My uncle was confused because he doesn’t give his skype number to anyone.

Anyway, afterwards, the next morning I received a call, but not on my skype, instead I received it to my other mobile phone.

I am freaking out this moment, I mean first my uncle’s skype phone, and now my own mobile phone, someone has got my number and also my uncle’s number.

When I received this call, it was someone named jenny who says:

‘Hi simon it’s me jenny, hello….helloo….heloooooo ?’

Then she switched the phone of.

I am freaking out, and the number that phoned me on my mobile is the following:

01208851869

Open Question: Question about Skype and my Contacts?

Published on January 7, 2010 by Technology Slice

My ex used to show up in my contacts with an ‘x’ by her name when she was offline and of course it would light up green when she was on. Now she is still on my contacts but instead of an x there is a ? in the little lemon next to her name. There is also the option to send contact request. Does this mean she has deleted me from her contacts or blocked me? Or something else? Because I can still see her name but of course the symbol has changed next to her.
