Just had one where they called three times in rapid succession. First time I let it ring because I didn't recognize the number. Second time I answered, a lady said my name, said she was from some insurance company (said the name so fast I couldn't understand her), and wanted to ask some questions concerning an appointment I have with them tomorrow. I simply said "I don't remember making an appointment with you" and hung up. Immediately called me a third time so I let someone else from my family answer it and there was dead silence.

I looked up the number and no businesses came up, so I blocked it.

Yeah, any scam really. They seem to have really ramped up this past month or so.

I feel like I should do that. I just have to remember to include numbers I expect to get a call from in my contacts.

Yeah, I started doing that when I kept getting spam calls interrupting my music in my car. Most of my friends never call me unless it's an emergency and will simply text, so no more music interruptions.
