Delayed connection (first bad sign!). Got an actual human (non-native speaker) who said she was from my mobile provider and would not state why she was calling until I confirmed my provider. I don't know how their scam was to play out as I didn't stay past that. I only took it as it was a local number. Maybe they were trying to verify that their scam list looked local? A local scam for local people.

Left voicemail saying, "Hello?" That was it. So it is not a robocall. I did not return the call, so I have no idea what the reason was.
Let answerphone take call, no message left so assume another scam
missed the call. I don't know who it was.
only got a text message that they tried to call me but didn't leave a message. My phone was connected to the network, so it might be a scam fishing for people to call back - but I don't fully know.
Didn't answer, no message left.
