How long has this service been running and who is it for?
The service was created in 2011 in the Czech Republic. It is an online forum where the users can share their experience with phone numbers, both annoying (mostly telemarketing, surveys) and useful (e.g. couriers, offices)..
Since the beginning, the service has been received very well, which led to localization into more languages. Nowadays, the forum exists in more than 20 languages and 34 countries throughout the world.
The service is intended for anyone who wants to identify the owner of an unknown phone number. The creators of the forum have also recently created the mobile app Call Insider for Android phones. This app, which is connected to the database of the website numberlookup.com.au, also allows users to automatically block telemarketing numbers.

This Scam is Alive and Well. I received three calls, one minute apart before I answered. The caller claimed to be from Amex Fraud department. He had my first and last name and phone No. Like the other events listed here, the claim was that my card had been used seven times that day in New Zealand for a total of $3000+ and was I in NZ. He said that he had 'blocked' the card and needed to verify some of my details. When I said that I would ring Amex direct, he gave me a Reference No. and said that I should ring back and quote that No. When I rang AMEX, they said that they had not contacted me, there were no suspicious transactions on my card and that they NEVER ring, rather they send SMS and Emails if there is a concern. Given that no personal data had been given to the scammer, there was no problem. While I was talking to AMEX, the scammer tried to ring eight times in quick succession, all of which I cancelled and subsequently blocked. Not to be outdone the scammer then called three more times from a Melbourne number. Also cancelled and blocked.
