Phone number with area code 333

I just got a call from this number. Tried looking it up but the area code is unknown (perhaps out of the US). I found something online about it being a fake number as many have gotten calls from numbers with the same area code. It usually turns out to be telemarketers or someone that doesn't speak english saying random things like "I'm your lost uncle", etc. lol Anyone else received such calls?

Yeah it's got to be outside of the US, you can check all the codes here

^ Thanks for the link. I usually don't mind those calls but this one was from an unknown number so I was just curious.

Probably someone calling to say they need to fix your computer or need a credit card to pay the IRS or any number of BS scams. "Unknown Number" = don't answer.

Or, in the case of Pakistan:
"Hello, this your operator (not that kind). Please ignore that laser light you have been painted with and the faint hum of a drone engine. Please hold for about 9 more seconds so I may complete delivery of the ... message."
