    If they are not leaving a message it is more than likely a scam to try to get you to call back such that they make money from the call. If the incoming call rings once and hangs up, or hangs up so quickly that you don't even hear it ring, then this is almost certainly an attempted 'wangiri' scam. Ignore the calls. If it was important and genuine, they would have left a voicemail message or found some other way to contact you.

    My brother had this on his Android phone

    He downloaded a 'call blocker' from the Play Store and now the calls don't bother him.
  • Hi, i think there was one where if you answered the call they charge you. People didnt know until thier bill came that they have been charged

    You cannot be charged for incoming calls, unless you are using a mobile and are using it abroad when roaming.
