Expert Opinion
These calls are likely automated survey attempts that aim to gather data, often using a brief recording before hanging up. Callers usually employ a robocall system to verify numbers, making it hard to trace a real person. The best defense is to let the call go to voicemail, then block the number through your carrier or a third‑party app. Register your line with the national Do Not Call list, and avoid pressing any keys that could confirm your number as active. If you receive repeated drops, consider reporting the number to the FCC for further investigation.
