Question by Chrystal M: Can I locate a payphone by the number?
I have been receiving horrible crank calls at my business. All of them are coming from a payphone in Houston. The number is 713-787-0845. I have looked on the internet for some way to locate the pay phone to see if I can somehow figure out who is doing this.
Is there any way to locate where this phone is? They were simply swearing and being disgusting at first. Now they are blowing what sounds like an air horn or a police whistle in the phone each time he/she calls.

You could call Southwestern Bell or the Operator and ask. They might be able to help you. Or better yet, have your phone company block the phone number directly.
I did a search at http://www.intelius.com/ for that phone number and even though they want you to pay for the results it shows the latitude (29.73) and longitude (-95.52) on that page, but I’m not sure how accurate it is. Anyway, here’s a link to where that site thinks it might be. Google Street View is cool, but I don’t see the payphone.
