Encountering a call where the recipient overhears a conversation but gets no response to questions feels off, often signaling potential harassment or a scam in progress. This kind of silent or evasive interaction is common with nuisance callers testing lines or accidentally dialing. Block the number immediately to prevent repeats, and report it to your carrier or services like Ireland's ComReg for telecom complaints. Enable call screening features on your phone to filter unknowns, and never share personal info if they call back. Staying vigilant helps avoid escalation to more intrusive tactics.
When I answered an unfamiliar number, a woman was speaking to a man; I couldn't make out the conversation, she ignored my question about her identity and then hung up. Strange.
