Unexpected call from +51?

If you have no contacts in Peru, a missed call from +51 that rings once is the classic "wangiri" pattern: the callback is billed at international or premium rates. Do not call back; look the number up instead.

Messages from foreign numbers offering jobs, investments or "a wrong number" chat are another common opener. A real +51 number can also be spoofed, so caller ID alone proves little — check whether the number is valid, which network holds it and whether it is a mobile, landline or VoIP line.

How to dial +51

  1. From a mobile anywhere: press + (hold 0), then 51, then the number without the leading 0.

  3. From most of Europe, Africa and Asia: dial 00, then 51 and the number without the leading 0.
  4. Inside Peru: drop the 51 and dial the number with its 0 in front — 0912 345 678.
