Call from this number about an online purchase I made many years (>3yrs) ago from global shop direct. Had my name and details of item, purportedly asking for "review" - suspected scam reported.

Global Shop Direct.

They did not leave a message when they called. I suspect this may be a scam, so I am treating it as such.

Scam

I called this number back using a blocked caller ID, but it led to a tone without even ringing, which seems suspicious. I should note that it's possible to use 1831 to block your outgoing call if needed.
