User reported 01242 785 521 as Harassing

Unknown caller with no message left. Likely another unwanted sales or scam call as these happen regularly from similar numbers.

User reported 01242 785 521 as Neutral

Caller claimed to be from a windows and doors company in the South West. When questioned, he just repeated the same script again, which sounded very unnatural.

User reported 01242 785 521 as Neutral

Answered with a hello and the call dropped straight away with no explanation.

Picked up and no response at first, then the caller asked if I was the homeowner. After answering, the line went quiet again. Very suspicious interaction.

User reported 01242 785 521 as Harassing

Answered the phone and a clear voice asked if I could hear them. After replying, there was silence and the call ended shortly after.

User reported 01242 785 521 as Dangerous

This number called and disconnected almost immediately after I answered. Felt like a scam attempt or system testing active lines.
