Over the past several hours, when I go to use my mobile, there's a strange voice on the other end BEFORE I do anything.

I ask who it is, and they don't reply. There is no apparent call in progress and call history doesn't display anything?

It's almost as though they're listening.

It's rather unusual.

Any explanations?

@Spudster Oooh...Spooky!! 👻 😨 😱

Sorry couldn't resist.... 😁

@Spudster

Sounds like you have a party line; anyone remember those?

OMG, my grandparents had one of those.

Funniest thing EVER!!!

No party line, though, just background chatter. The voices are starting to sound impatient.

Ok, I'll bite, @Spudster

By any chance, does the voice on the other end ever say:

"Have you checked the children?"

If so, DO NOT answer the door. OK, I'm really dating myself there... 🤣🤣🤣

@HALIMACS

If you are dating yourself does that mean you are the babysitter's boyfriend? And the babysitter at the same time?😁
