Strange phone numbers which hand up when I answer call

[Summerglow]

Hi I have received two phone calls today with numbers starting +212, both callers where from different numbers.

Each time I answer the phone call is ended.

Has anyone else had this issue and is it something I need to be concerned with.  Im in the UK.

Thanks for any help.

It's just scammers trying to get you to call them back on a premium rate number.

Block the numbers and ignore them.

O2 advice here:

*Calls from unknown international numbers are often part of a scam, sometimes known as Wangiri (one ring) and is where the fraudster leaves a missed call on your phone, intentionally not giving you a chance to answer it. If you call it back, you could incur high costs. You should report Wangiri calls to nuisance@telefonica.com including details of your mobile number, the number calling you, and the time and date of the call(s).
