Awas Nomor Merah ! - Beware Red Number !

There's an urban myth going about in Malaysia and Indonesia which started only a few days ago. It's about people mysteriously dying immediately when they get a call (or SMS) on their mobile from a number prefixed 0866 or 0666 - with the calling number showing RED on the victims phone !! Some have speculated these numbers have been coded to generate a sudden powerful burst of microwave radiation which kills the victim - other claim it has something to do with Indonesian magic (like some kind of vodoo). Some reports have even mentioned several cases in Indonesia where those receiving those calls did actually die.
All complete non-sense of course
oh .....one minute.......must answer my phone....AAAARRRGH !!!!

For more info (in Indonesian) see:-
It was also reported in the Jawa Pos (Java Post):-
