Why Silent Calls Happen
Silent or abandoned calls typically fall into a few categories. Some are caused by automated systems used by legitimate organisations to manage high call volumes - when no operator is available, the call connects but disconnects silently. Others may be generated by scammers testing whether a number is active and monitored before launching a more targeted scam attempt.
