Ultimately, these repeated silent calls are most likely a low‑tech scam that relies on persistence rather than a real service. Never give personal data or press any buttons when the line is idle, and avoid calling back unknown toll‑free numbers. Use your phone’s built‑in block feature or a reputable call‑blocking app, and register the number with the National Do Not Call Registry—even though it may not stop spoofed calls entirely. Report the pattern to the FTC and your carrier’s fraud department. Keeping a log of timestamps can help authorities identify spoofing trends.
