The number +447885911111 is almost certainly linked to unsolicited marketing calls, specifically targeting individuals who have recently registered a domain name. The majority of complaints indicate that these calls begin shortly after purchasing a domain through platforms like GoDaddy, 123-reg, or Wix. Users report receiving silent calls, hang-ups, or mumbled offers related to web development or ink cartridges, often from foreign-sounding callers, likely based in India. This suggests that the caller(s) are scraping WHOIS data—a public database of domain registrations—to harvest contact details for telemarketing purposes. Many users express frustration with the sheer volume of spam calls and emails that follow, often leading them to block the number or opt for domain privacy services in the future. While the exact identity of the caller remains unclear, the pattern points to opportunistic web service providers or third-party marketers exploiting publicly available domain registration data. This practice is widely regarded as harassing and unethical, prompting calls for stricter regulations on WHOIS data accessibility.
I registered a domain two days ago with domainmonster[###], and this number called me. Considering it's not a typical personal number (with five 1s in it), I decided to ignore it. I suspect the information is public, which is likely how they obtained it. I've also received 20 emails today from web development companies...
