Missed calls from unknown numbers often spark curiosity, yet this one's response of claiming an 'incorrect number' despite correct dialling screams red flag. Such tactics are classic for scammers probing active lines or setting up premium-rate callbacks, potentially racking up charges if you ring back later. With just one report, it's hard to pinpoint, but the odd behaviour suggests caution. Block the number immediately and avoid returning calls. Report to your network provider or Action Fraud for wider alerts. If similar patterns emerge, it could tie into broader fraud networks—stay vigilant and use apps to screen unknowns.
I missed a call, called back after fifteen minutes and the system told me I’d dialed the wrong number, even though it was correct – clearly bogus, so I blocked it.
