We don’t answer the phone for numbers we don’t recognize. But some years ago and just for fun, I began an online search of phone numbers that rang but left no message. Most were the usual, no record of this number. But once in a while a hunt that lets me find something interesting.
It listed name and address for 3 people. No business name on the phone, left no message, and never called back. Not the way most businesses operate.
Google found a residence, not a listed business, in a small neighborhood. There were 4 land lines and nearly a dozen cell numbers. Suggested they were either operating an unregistered home business or they were trying ‘supplement’ their income by other than legal means.
And, as usual at the start of the year, Thu and Friday, before 10 am, we received a half dozen calls from numbers which, when I answered as a test, gave that funny little ‘bloop’ sound, which told me they were robo calls. The sharks never stop swimming.
