| UPDATE : 21 January 2010 |
Authorities have warned the public not to fall for the 'killer' phone number hoax after it has been proven as untrue by officials.
A hoax involving killer phone numbers has been terrifying the public in many provinces.
False rumors have surfaced in various provinces that one can die from picking up a phone call from unknown numbers, particularly those that start with 083 and end with 3366.
Authorities have proved that this bizarre rumor is a hoax.
The terrifying rumors have been spreading several northern provinces for almost two weeks, spreading fear among the locals.
The authorities have stepped in to investigate the rumors and forwarded e-mails and concluded that it's a hoax.
