I answered it but there was nobody there.  My guess is that it's some kind of robo-call that has the purpose of identifying good phone numbers that they can then sell to somebody.

Political robo call.  We have voting in Nevada tomorrow -- been getting 10 to 12 political robo calls a day from places all over the US.  

Been coming from this number at least 2x/day for several days now.

Just don't answer any calls from toll free numbers (it's usually spam calls) or from any other number that you don't recognize (including this one in 202).  Let them roll to your voice mail.  And certainly ignore anything that does not have a complete name/company and phone number showing up on your Caller ID.  And ignore anything that doesn't look right on the Caller ID, as there are a bunch of spoofed numbers.

Tell Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa, not to just pick up the phone because it rings.

Unwanted call

When you get call with a caller-id you do not recognize, don't say anything (like Hi, hello)- wait a few seconds; if you do not hear any noise, something that will tell you someone is at the other end,  - hung up.. It is a robocall; these are activated when you say something as you answer the call.

got call today but hung up before I could get to the phone

I've getting calls from this number for the past several days - at least two per day.  I don't answer the phone, but they still  keep calling.

Automated survey call, when the recording asked if anyone in the household worked for a newspaper, radio broadcaster, etc. etc.
I pressed "1" for yes and the recording said "thanks for you opinion" and hung up!
They don't want to talk to those kind of people???
I hope they remember that I selected 1 and stop calling!

I called this number back and was given option of being taken off caller list. Most all of these numbers, if you call back, give you that option and work on 95% of them. This particular number when I called said "to be removed from future promotions" so telemarketer. Amazingly enough VERIZON got caught and was in the news for "giving" or selling numbers to these telemarketers without permission and used the line, "we only give numbers to companies/products we think you would be interested in!" I called VERIZON and asked if you don't know me how could you what interests me?
