Just had a one ring call, never answer unsolicitored calls, easy to block on most smart phones these days so as not to be bothered anymore

Same just happened to me. You'd think there would be some kind of comeback for this many complaints but I guess the phone company must be making money or something to keep this number active. One ring then hung up. I am careful not to publish my mobile number so they must have randomly dialled it or got hold of it from less than legal ways.

This site is useful in alerting people to scums. It would make more sense however to have the comments ordered with the most recent ones on top!

Rings once and stops. Call goes on "missed calls". It's a scum whereby, some people, will ring the number back and be charged. Someone is making money for nothing. Think, with automated dialling these days, a computer could be made to call out thousands of mobiles in a day. If 10% of the fictitious "missed" calls are returned, that's a lot of money made for nothing. I always follow a simple rule that I will only call back numbers that I recognise 100%.
