What happens when an unknown number rings repeatedly, only to hit hold music and a robotic voicemail? Sounds like a classic robocall tactic to mask the source. This pattern screams potential spam or scam, where callers use automation to fish for responses without revealing identities. No British robot spilling details? That's a red flag for evasion. Practical advice: Always block and report such numbers to your carrier or the FTC—don't engage or call back, as it confirms your line is active. Use apps like Nomorobo for extra protection, and verify any callbacks through official channels only. Stay vigilant to avoid headaches from these nuisances.
