Dude. Who tried to call my cell phone from area code 888 while I was in the shower just now?

Also: most telemarketers = 888 numbers.

Yeah, but it was my cell phone, so if it was a telemarketer, CLEO SMASH. (888, I discovered, is also a town in Oklahoma and two towns in Canada.)

Really?
Strange.
Maybe all the telemarketers I hung up on are hot guys who want to make love to me, but they live in Oklahoma and/or Canada.

Huh, I didn't even know that it was possible to have an area code assigned to more than one place.

Actually it's not. the 888 in Oklahoma is an exchange not an area code - their area codes are 405 580 and 918. 888 is a toll free exchange used in Canada and in the US.

actually, most telemarketers are sneaky and block caller ID. many non-profit and political call centers show up as 800 or 888.

[t4-flirt.livejournal.com]

tell me about it...our house line is flooded with telemarketers under 888 or 800 numbers at least 6 times a day. the absolute WORST is SBC, they call at least once a day.
