Scam.....I just received a call from a 268 area code. Instead of calling the number back I looked it up and found this:One Ring Scam[edit] The 268 area code has been linked to a scam known as the one ring scam. Which attempts to illicit a response from the victim by calling, usually at odd hours, then hanging up almost immediately with the hope that they will be curious enough to call the number back. When the victim does this, an automatic $19.95 international call fee is charged to their account, as well as $9.98/min. This scam has also been linked to Grenada (area code 473), Antigua (area code 268), Jamaica (area code 876), the Dominican Republic (area code 809) and the British Virgin Islands (area code 284).
