I had posted a few nights ago about a strange phonecall we received at 10:30pm. My mom answered it (I'm living at home), and she said the other person spoke a short phrase so quickly that she didn't understand. It probably wasn't English, and she said the guy's accent sounded Indian or Pakistani. So, she hung up and that was it for that night and a couple of days thereafter.
Tonight, at 10:00pm, we got another call. It was dead air on this one -- usually a sign that it's a computer, but who knows? She said hello twice, nobody talked, so she hung up.
The caller ID just says Unknown Caller, and there's a -------------- line where the phone number would normally be displayed. Usually, even when we get Unknown Name telemarketers during the day, we still see a number. Is this a sign that it's out of the country?
The only reason I worry is that a while back, a guy with a similar accent called at a more reasonable time of day. He sounded like a marketer and asked for mom. My mom lied about not being home, and the guy said a few unkind words (swearing, she says) before she hung up.
Should I just ignore this? Never before have we had marketers at this time of night, so I do wonder. There's not much that I can investigate when the ID shows nothing, though.
