Looking for a website.....

Hi
I need help! My friend is receiving texts from an unknown person, and we would both like to know who the mobile provider is.
Is there a website where you can enter the number and it reveals the provider?
The person will not answer their phone, she's rung them a couple of times and the texts are now becoming a little bit worrying ie they've mentioned personal info

I see to remember reading about such a site on here, but now I can't remember what it was called or anything.....
Hope someone can help,
thanks!

    yes, kind of. She's told me that it started with saying are you so and so, I'm looking for someone. She replied who is this? They would not reply.
    Then a few days later it was I know you're so and so, you live there and your mum was so and so and your dad is so and so.
    You get the picture.
    I just thought I had seen something about a site that would let you know which network the number is from, that's all, and I'm sure it was on here.

    Tells you which network it was originally assigned to, not which one it's on now if they've changed it though.

    hth.
