There was no one on the other end of the line
Like a ghost on the line, a silent call can leave you wondering who’s behind the pause. When your phone rings and no one answers, it’s often a silent call used by scammers to verify active numbers or by telemarketers testing reachability. Let the call go to voicemail; if a message follows, note any clues about the source. Register your number with the National Do Not Call Registry to cut down unsolicited rings. Consider using call‑blocking apps or your carrier’s spam filter. If the same number rings repeatedly, report it to the FTC or your phone provider for further action.
