Not sure how these random people are receiving my number. Picked up, no one said anything and hung up. Now blocked but they will try with other numbers now because I picked up. I get harassed daily with random numbers. I keep blocking but it's too many numbers daily. I am fed up

No identity from the smart number identification and no left message. Why somebody is calling me fro Galashiels is beyond me as I know nobody there as far as I know and if I did they would surely leave me a message. This can only be of nefarious intent.
