Hi, I have a new work colleague today with a Hungarian mobile number that I have called him on (in Hungary) over the past months. He is now in Ireland and still using his mobile until he gets an Irish sim. Today I got a number of legitimate texts from him (he got lost and was late for an appointment) but they came in on a different number. I thought maybe he was using a friend's phone. But he never got my replies. I phoned the number and it came up as Zambia so I hung up straight away. All his legitimate texts to me come in with a different Zambian number, and he also never got my replies to them. Any idea what's going on there? He gets my texts if I text him directly on the correct number but his reply comes in on a different number from Zambia.
Did I compromise my phone by ringing one of the Zambian numbers but hanging up straight away?
