It is a shame that you can not even trust a landline number. I thought Telstra was investigating these type of calls. Will not call back.

3 calls from this number in 2 days but they ask for a family member by name. No way that person is associated with the mobile they are calling. Definitely overseas, I've blocked. SICK of this crap.

Called me and I only responded with Hello and they hung up. They might be collecting names against the numbers they call to build a database. I always answer unknown numbers with a Hello.
