Received a call or message from +509?
A call or text from +509 (or 00509) originates from Haiti.
If you don't know anyone in Haiti, be cautious. Common patterns with unfamiliar international numbers:
- One-ring scams (Wangiri): The caller rings once and hangs up, hoping you'll call back a premium-rate number. Don't return calls to numbers you don't recognize.
- SMS phishing: Messages claiming to be from banks, delivery services, or government agencies. Legitimate organizations won't contact you from a +509 number unless you have an account in Haiti.
- Spoofed numbers: The caller ID can be faked. A call showing +509 may not actually originate from Haiti.
If you do know someone in Haiti and want to call them back, see the dialing instructions below.
