Run a Reverse Phone Lookup
Minnesota

How can you tell whether that unrecognized call is from a Minnesota phone number? One clue is the area code.

Here are the Minnesota area codes:

• Twin Cities metropolitan area codes: 612, 651, 763 and 952.
• Area code for the rest of Central Minnesota, including St. Cloud: 320.
• Area code for Northern Minnesota, including Duluth: 218.
• Area code for Southern Minnesota, including Rochester and Mankato: 507.

It’s important to remember that just because someone is calling from a Minnesota phone number does not mean they’re located in that region still. Additionally, it’s not impossible for scammers to “spoof” their calls so that they appear to come from a different number.

If you know someone’s name, you can look up a Minnesota number in the phone book or call information. Of course that only works with listed landlines. A reverse phone number lookup service is the opposite of the old white pages of a phone book. You enter the phone number and the service searches for the name of the owner. Sometimes it can come up with additional information.

A reverse lookup usually works for both landlines and cell phone numbers. Where does it find what it needs? As it turns out, in the course of daily living, many people wind up listing their name and number on at least one public source. Many of these are government data sources. A reverse phone number lookup service knows what these data sources are and likely has the algorithms to search them.

Here’s one thing to watch out for: sometimes scammers and telemarketers cycle their calls through fake phone numbers. The number you see on your phone is usually where the call is from, but that’s not true 100 percent of the time.

Yes, it’s totally legal to run a reverse number lookup in Minnesota or on a Minnesota phone number. These numbers are out there in public sources that everyone could find and access. In fact, with enough time and enough know-how, you could do the search yourself.

Of course, you’d have to compile a list of all the data sources and search through them one by one. You’d have to keep track of sources that have changed and new ones that become available. How much simpler to have a reverse phone number lookup service do it for you!
