Ever pick up the phone to an unknown caller and get nothing but silence or a hang-up? That's a classic red flag for potential spam or scam attempts, especially when the number doesn't even ring through on a callback. With voicemail claiming the number doesn't exist, it screams spoofed line—crooks often fake caller IDs to dodge tracking. Hang up immediately if you answer; never share personal info. Block the number on your phone and report it to your carrier or sites like the FCC's complaint center. Stay vigilant—most legit callers identify themselves upfront. If suspicious calls persist, consider a call-blocking app for extra peace of mind.
Unknown caller; returning the call triggers a voicemail stating the number is unavailable.
