Reading a +47 number

•Mobile if the digits after +47 start with 40–41, 45–48 or 9 (+47 40 XX XX XX).
•Landlines start with an area code, for example +47 21 XX XX XX for Oslo.
•Premium rate if it starts with 82 after +47: never call these back.
•Local time: 9:15 PM in Oslo right now.

•Don't call back a number you don't recognize. One-ring scams hang up after a ring or two so you return the call, which can add a per-minute charge on top of an international rate.
•Caller ID can be faked. The code shown is not proof of where the caller really is.
•Real callers leave a message. If it matters, they'll text, email or leave a voicemail. Otherwise, block the number.
