Wangiri

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


The term wangiri (Japanese: ワン切り, lit "one-ring") is used to refer to a situation where a phone number is called one to two times and the call is then immediately hung up, leaving the phone number in the caller's incoming call history.[1] While the term was originally used in situations where the caller or action was determined according to the number of phone calls that had been predetermined among friends in order to save on calling charges, it later came to refer to a type of phone fraud.
