I'd ask your provider if they can find it for you.

If the caller is blocking their phone #.....

....then only a law enforcement agency can help you trace the number. Your carrier will not be able to assist you.

Best advice....
Oct 9, 2013 5:55AM PDT

Download an application that requires callers to manually enter their phone # if they are currently blocking it. I use a free application called "Who Are You?" in conjunction with "You Mail". Works like a charm for me. If the caller is unwilling to comply, the caller is advised that their call has been rejected and the application hangs up on them. If they are unwilling to do so, they aren't important enough to worry about, IMHO.

In addition, the application allows me to mark unwanted callers (assuming their caller ID is showing) as a SPAM caller and they can no longer call or send SMS to my mobile #.
