Why is 0863312992 calling and asking for someone else?
When a caller from 08 6331 2992 asks for a random person, it typically indicates the number is part of a bulk dialling operation using outdated or incorrect contact lists.

Should I answer if 08 6331 2992 calls again?
No. If 08 6331 2992 calls you and you do not recognise the number, it is safer to let it go to voicemail.
