A mobile phone company has suspended the number 0888 888 888 – after every single person assigned to it died in the last 10 years.
保加利亞某移動通訊公司最近終止了號碼0888 888 888的使用，因為在過去十年中使用它的三名用戶相繼死亡。
The first owner Vladimir Grashnov – the former CEO of Bulgarian mobile phone company Mobitel which issued the number – died of cancer in 2001 aged just 48.
第一位用戶是Vladimir Grashnov——他簽下這個號碼時任保加利亞手機公司Mobitel的CEO——他于2001年48歲時死于癌癥。
Despite a spotless business record there were persistent rumours that his cancer had been caused by a business rival using radioactive poisoning.
他在生意場上表現完美，也有傳聞說他的癌癥是因為競爭對手給他放射性的毒藥所致。
The number then passed to Bulgarian mafia boss, Konstantin Dimitrov, who was gunned down in 2003 by a lone assassin in the Netherlands during a trip to inspect his £500 million drug smuggling empire.
這個號碼之后被保加利亞黑手黨領袖Konstantin Dimitrov使用。2003年，當他到荷蘭檢查自己5億英鎊的毒品走私生意時被不知名的殺手開槍打死。
Dimitrov, who died aged 31, had the mobile with him when he was shot while eating out with a model.
他當時只有31歲，中槍時正帶著他的手機，和模特吃飯。
Russian mafia bosses – jealous of his drug smuggling operation – were said to have been behind the killing.
據稱，是覬覦他毒品生意的俄羅斯黑手黨頭目策劃了這次暗殺。
