Block unsolicited calls immediately to safeguard your peace. Reports indicate persistent cold calls from this number, often with silent pauses or foreign accents probing personal details like surnames. One instance pushed a dubious solar power compensation scheme, flagged as a scam tactic to hook victims. No legitimate caller leaves no voicemail or hangs up abruptly. If TPS-registered, report to authorities for investigation. Verify identities before sharing info—scammers exploit trust. Enable call screening on your device to filter unknowns, and consider apps for spam detection. Stay vigilant; these patterns scream harassment, not harmless outreach.
The person spoke with a foreign accent and, after a long pause for both sides, asked twice if they were talking to my surname (no Mr or Mrs). When I pressed for their identity, they disconnected.
The solar‑power compensation scheme turned out to be a scam; I hung up and blocked the number, furious.
A silent missed call arrived while I was on the TPS list; no voicemail was left, so I blocked the number after checking it here.
