Block !

Overlooked a landline buzz from this line. With the regional prefix matching what I awaited from that city, assumed it could be the legit contact.

Silence when answered, and pretty unnerving. Tried calling them back but longer available. Pretty scary for an OAP or if a child should answer the phone.
