I answered and heard silence followed by a beep then it disconnected. This happens 7 or 8 times a day and each number is new to me. I search the numbers on here and unsurprisingly they are call centers for PPI and some accident or another.

Called me twice this week so far and they hung up within 10 secs. All I could hear was loud background noise of a busy telephone market office. Scam nuisance calls.
