Expert Opinion

Ever wonder why a silent call keeps popping up on your caller ID? The pattern you’re seeing points to an automated telemarketing operation, often masquerading as a known VoIP provider to boost credibility. These drops usually involve a brief ring‑out, sometimes a recorded greeting in a foreign language, then an abrupt hang‑up. The goal is to trigger a callback on premium‑rate lines or harvest your number for future spam. To limit exposure, register the number with the national Do‑Not‑Call registry, use carrier‑level call‑blocking, and consider a third‑party spam filter that flags silent or suspect calls. Staying proactive keeps your line clear of unwanted chatter.
