Expert Opinion
They claimed to be a will‑writing service and even knew my name. The call repeatedly offered legal assistance for a will without any prior request, and most attempts ended in a quick hang‑up or were flagged by spam‑detect tools. Such patterns are typical of harassing or spam calls that aim to harvest personal details before a sales pitch. If you receive a similar call, let it go to voicemail, block the number and report it to your carrier or the Information Commissioner’s Office. Do not reveal any personal information, and consider adding the number to a reputable stop‑call registry. Regularly reviewing your call‑blocking settings can reduce future disturbances.

Never answering a number not stored in my phone, I assume it's unfamiliar. Legitimate callers tend to leave a message, but fraudsters rarely do, aiming to surprise you. So I let it ring out and, unsurprisingly, no voicemail was received. Reading the comments confirmed my suspicion again.
Appears to be a fraudulent call.
A firm offering legal services called, promoting a will‑writing service.
The caller repeatedly asks for someone else and then tries to engage with lines like, 'Since I have you on the line, can we discuss…' It's clearly a scam designed to extract money. I consider this a hazardous number because its friendly tone could lure an unsuspecting individual.
