Sounds like he is trying to scare you just ignore him if.
Would be the best advice unless he has done something illegal.

Chely,im an ethical hacker. Let me tell you its very much possible. BUT it requires very VERY costly hardwares, so can assure u whoever it was ,was just messing around .

If you have your phone number and your current location disclosed on your Facebook profile, then it's possible for him to find it out.

If this guy has education in computer programming he could hack your carrier's servers, find your number, and it will be linked to your current location. However this is illegal and takes extreme skill. I would just ignore the guy, check his background and if ther is nothing about computer programming and no criminal record you will be fine. What did you say to anger this guy?

It sure is, depending on how he approaches obtaining this info I would say even a novice could do this with the right tutorial and tools (most are free). Linux distros like BACKTRACK and BLACKBOX come preloaded with these types of tools.
