Who Called Me — Unknown & Spam Calls in Pakistan

In 2023-2024, based on users’ reports about fraudulent activities, PTA blocked 5,294 mobile numbers, 4,507 IMEIs, and 113 CNICs. Moreover, 19,730 warnings were issued to mobile numbers. This highlights the necessity of knowing how to stay safe with unknown callers and SMS senders.

How to Report the Suspicious Call/SMS

1. Contact your mobile network provider.
   

   Network Provider	Helpline Number
   Jazz	111
   Zong	310
   Telenor	345
   Ufone	333
   PTCL	1218 and 1236

2. You can also report the phone number to the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority. Dial 0800-55055, visit https://complaint.pta.gov.pk/RegisterComplaint, or use the PTA CMS mobile app.
3. In Pakistan, you can send the spam number and “received text” to the shortcode 9000.
4. Dial *420# to flag suspicious numbers (PTA’s initiative).

Check SIM Owner Details Online in Pakistan

In Pakistan, every SIM card is linked to a valid CNIC, creating a secure system of phone number ownership. However, you can only check which SIMs are registered under your CNIC. To do this:

1. Visit the PTA SIM Information portal online.
2. Enter your CNIC number as issued by NADRA.
3. Enter the verification code and submit.
4. The portal will display a list of all SIM cards registered under your CNIC.
   Or
   Type your CNIC number (without dashes) and send it to 668. You will receive a reply detailing all SIMs registered against your CNIC. Note that each SMS sent to 668 incurs a charge of PKR 2 plus tax.

! If you find any SIM cards that you did not register, contact your mobile operator immediately to report unauthorized usage.

To find out a SIM owner’s name by mobile number online, one needs to use third-party platforms and services, as there is no centralized Pakistani database with phone numbers and their corresponding owners’ information. The most common of these are caller ID services such as Truecaller or Hiya. Usually, they collect phone number information from their users’ phone books. Thus, if the mobile number you want to look up is known to someone, you’ll know who its owner is.

More sophisticated reverse phone lookup services may claim to show mobile number details with name and address, social media accounts, email address, or even background information. However, accessing or using this information without consent may violate local privacy laws, telecommunications regulations, and data protection statutes.

Disclaimer: The information provided by reverse phone lookup services is not guaranteed to be accurate or up-to-date, and the use of such information for harassment, stalking, fraud, or other unlawful activities is strictly prohibited. Users are responsible for ensuring that any action taken using this information complies with local laws and ethical guidelines. Always obtain consent where required.

• Carrier/Provider: The mobile or landline network operator that issued the number, such as Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone, or PTCL. This identifies who manages the connection.

Understanding Pakistan’s phone numbering system helps you identify calls, verify numbers, and stay alert to potential scams.

Numbering plan

Country Code (+CC): Pakistan’s international dialing code is +92.

Trunk Prefix: Within Pakistan, a 0 is used before the area or mobile code when dialing nationally.

NSN Length: The National Significant Number (excluding the country code) is typically 9 to 10 digits for mobile numbers and 7 to 8 digits for landlines.

Common Patterns: Mobile numbers usually start with 03X, where X identifies the operator (e.g., 0300 = Jazz, 0345 = Telenor). Landlines start with area codes like 021 (Karachi), 042 (Lahore).

Example Formats

Mobile (Domestic): 0300 1234567 (Jazz)

Calling Habits & Common Scam Themes

Phone calls are an important part of daily life in Pakistan. Families, businesses, and communities rely heavily on mobile communication.

Mobile Cellular Subscribers: 197 million, representing a mobile teledensity of 79.38%. This indicates that a significant majority of Pakistanis rely on mobile phones as their primary communication tool.

Mobile Broadband Subscribers: 148 million, with a penetration rate of 59.56%, showing that many users combine voice calls with internet use, particularly for apps like WhatsApp, IMO, and social media.

Fixed Telephone Subscribers: Only 3 million, with 1.03% teledensity, reflecting that landlines are now limited mostly to offices or households in urban areas.

Broadband Subscribers: 152 million, with a 61.09% penetration, showing increasing internet adoption, which affects how younger users and urban populations combine calls and online messaging.

Emerging Scam Themes

Unfortunately, scammers exploit these habits and use the following schemes for their fraud:

• Impersonation of authorities (PTA, HEC, banks, courier companies, etc.) via phone calls, SMS, links.
• Requests for sensitive information (OTP, CNIC, banking details) through calls/messages or fake platforms.
• Use of fear/urgency (“Your device will be blocked,” “You have suspicious activity,” etc.)
• Use of common names or trusted programs (e.g., Benazir Income Support Program) in SMS to gain trust.
• Fake web links/phishing via WhatsApp, social media masquerading as official portals (PTA’s DIRBS, etc.).
• Unauthorized requests via SMS or calls for verification codes as part of parcel scams or account takeover attempts.
