This number is a classic health‑related scam, repeatedly claiming a household member needs hearing assistance to snag a quick yes. Callers use scripted pitches, fake IDs like “Spam Caller,” and abrupt hang‑ups when you push back. Let the call go to voicemail, block the number, and report it to your carrier’s fraud line. Never share personal or medical info, and consider adding the caller to a third‑party blocklist. If you’re repeatedly targeted, file a complaint with the FTC and consider a call‑screening app to filter out similar robocalls and spam before they ring.
It appears this number is involved in a health products scam operated by criminals in India, who offer counterfeit products and services, including fake hearing aids and medications, and have also been known to pose as representatives of Microsoft and HP support, as well as other scam operations.

I was on a recorded line and he ask me if i can hear him, i say no and he hang up, weird.
It's amusing to note that this number appeared as a 'spam caller' on my ID, and they've attempted to contact me multiple times; perhaps I should entertain them and see how they respond, given my current disposition.
Clearly a fraudulent operation, the woman on the phone claimed our records showed a household member had a hearing issue, but when questioned about her location, she vaguely mentioned Ohio before the call ended.
It's ironic that the caller ID labeled the number as a 'Spam Caller', as if they're acknowledging their own spamming behavior.
Its a hearing aid scam, someone reading from a script, wanting to put a specialist on the line

Given that I don't recognize the number or the caller ID, I won't be answering, as it could be anyone, even someone pretending to be my grandma.
During the conversation, I attempted to avoid responding with a simple 'yes' by using alternative phrases, such as 'that is correct', and sucessfully kept both ladies on the phone for over 23 minutes, including several minutes of my hold music, which they listened to without hanging up
This number called my landline three times, twice it came up as Wheeling WV, but I wasnt home, and I didnt answer it, because I dont answer unknown numbers, if it was a legimitate business, they would have left a message
