Expert Opinion
Surprisingly, even a single brief ring from an unknown number can signal automated nuisance attempts, often designed to verify active lines for scammers. These 'ping calls' waste time and may precede more intrusive contacts, with reports indicating they're common from international spoofed lines. Block the number immediately via your phone settings or provider's app to prevent repeats. If it persists, log details like time and date for a formal complaint to Ofcom or Action Fraud. Enable spam filters on your device for added protection—stay vigilant against such low-effort tactics that exploit tech vulnerabilities.
