Answered the phone but no one spoke they out it down after 12 seconds
An Indian who claimed to be from Vodafone. He asked what type of phone I had, and when I said "if you work for Vodafone you'll already know that" he hung up. It's a scam.
Silence for few min until phone software could be heard connecting and then followed by an indian mans voice. issa scam
Same as others, silence for a few seconds and then a static noise and then hung up
Just straight silence for a few seconds then a noise just before I hung up
was on the call for 12 seconds silence and at the end it made like a TV static noise
