• Tried and Failed to Find Mystery Wine Lady

  I know this was a scam, but I spooked them (or broke the bot?) before I heard their plan. I did a reverse image search, and I found nothing. I looked at the metadata on the image, but I saw nothing useful. I looked up the number and found out it was a virtual number from bandwidth.com. I didn't know what to do after that, so I just reported the number to bandwidth. Source: 6 months ago

• Recommendations on SIP providers that also offer hosted Direct Routing

  I wanted to add a secondary provider though with Direct Routing for fail over but was looking for recommendations. I'm in Canada so prefer someone with a Canadian POP but not mandatory. I also prefer self-signup when possible, similar to Telnyx, Flowroute etc. I was checking bandwidth.com as I see they do this but it doesn't let you sign up and wants you to contact sales. That's fine and I was planning on... Source: over 1 year ago

• Troubleshooting Porting Errors

  You can pop your area code and prefix in the link below and see what providers do have a presence. Obviously, Sprint/T-Mobile will be one of them but if you don't see bandwidth.com then you're out of luck and there are no workarounds. Source: over 1 year ago

• Understanding E911 and dispatchable location.

  Your provider should be able to provide a short code (e.g. '933' if using bandwidth.com) that will read out the e911 information for the number calling. Source: over 1 year ago

• Idk if im being scammed or im just stupid plz help

  While I think you have your answer, another way to validate a number is to use https://freecarrierlookup.com/ and check the phone number. From that you can often tell if it is a "web only" number that a scammer outside the US would use. For example, it might belong to bandwidth.com or google voice. If it does belong to Bandwidth.com you can report it to them, and they are really fast at cancelling scammers. Source: over 1 year ago
