    My friend was scammed. We have the guy's details, after a bit of digging I have a bit more info on him. I have a phone number, how can I check if it's real? I tried calling but there was no answer.

    its not possible to check the background of the particular number , it was kept extremely private,
    you have to make a police complaint and produce that copy in respective service provider and then only you can check , if you need to do legally

    You should try contacting the company of the phone number.
