Posted on February 8, 2022 Caller type: Unknown Location: Australia
I received a call from 0422 987 198 but did not pick it up because I did not recognise the number. When I call back from my landline to check, it is disconnected or no longer in service.
This is what I found from reading online forums As a general rule, a call from a disconnected number is a robocall. Automated phone systems frequently use caller ID spoofing to place telephone calls from out-of-service numbers to prevent callbacks. While recipients can defend against spoof calls, scammers have various motives for robocalling.
Caller ID Spoofing is a malicious act of falsifying a caller’s information to steal money or sensitive information. It involves the masking of a callers’ numbers or calls station to disguise the real identity. Criminals also use real company numbers or neighbors to gain the recipients’ trust.
