Ever wonder why your phone rings but no one ever speaks? Those relentless silent calls are usually automated systems that drop the line before you can hear a greeting, often using number spoofing to rotate the last four digits. The best defense is to let the call go to voicemail, avoid answering unknown numbers, and activate your carrier’s call‑blocking feature. Consider installing a reputable third‑party blocker that flags silent calls and routes them to a spam folder. If the volume stays high, report the pattern to your provider and, where available, to the national communications regulator. Staying vigilant keeps the nuisance at bay.
Multiple daily calls occur, but nobody answers when I pick up; the last four digits keep changing, with two to three attempts each day.
