Got this call, went hellohello, there was a sound on the other end before it hung up but I was distracted and didn't catch it. Could've been an automated voice. 01615052783 I also experienced a call from this number months back (I'm the comment mentioning a Terry), I'm on a hand-me-down smartphone so I guess it's bored scammers working down a list of numbers to see what gullible sap(eg me) will answer. Be smarter than me because there is scams out there where people will record your voice, apparently. Other comments in that link mention scam attempts.
