My phone rang once too with a weird number on it that I didn't recognize but I thought what the heck and answered it. The nice gentleman on the other end offered to fix my computer for free which was great because I wasn't even aware it was broken!

You should have taken the opportunity to question the caller about the price of pop in Pakistani liquor stores.

So it turns out the OP got a call from Pakistan and also likes to take pictures of his new haircut and share them with his twitter followers.

Make sure you call them back and give them your credit card number. You have probably just inherited a large sum of money from a Pakistani prince and they need to verify you are the correct heir.

Telemarketers are using things like Google phone now and it does strange things with area codes.

My friend called me with Google phone from the computer next to me here in Calgary and the area code on my phone showed up as Kazakhstan

It is just kind of sketchy when a number from a "bad" country comes up on yer phone!

If they call back, I will make sure to answer this time and ask them about naan bread, the price of pop in their liquor stores and other stuff.

Maybe ask if I can have 72 virgins too.

Not much point if its from Pakistan though, the answer will always be 'a long black robe'.

I would have just recommended that the OP get all of his internet services disconnected too, just in case.
