silent phone

I've received a bunch of calls over the last month, usually during the day. ?I think I've only answered once and it was dead air.  A real piss off.  If it were to continue in to the night, I would just go find the address and go knocking on his door at 2am asking for his phone so I can smash it.Kinda creepy them asking for someone and hanging up.  Do they have the right last name?

Got two calls this week, one i didn't answer the second I did. Of course no one on the line. I think it's a systematic way to develop a calling list based on phone numbers that where people answer the call, it can be then used or sold for tele-marketing.  Although that wouldn't explain call backs after someone has answered. Unless they are trying to develop a call list based on a target group Male or Female. Either way it's ridiculous, I blocked the number on my phone.

The person called and my husband answered. The caller asked "Mr. or Mrs.xxxx?" and my husband said, "This is Mr. xxxx". The caller (a male) said, "Oh, good," and hung up. Very strange. When we called the number back two separate times: the first time, we got a busy signal. The second time, much later, the phone just kept ringing, and there was no answer.

asks for mr or mrs. xxx then hangs up

this man is scam
