   And before I start I did NOT answer it. I Still have a few of my marbles left!  2funny And again No voice mail left. Here is the Exact sequence as it showed up on my phone screen. 41 72 524 72 74. I'm guessin here It's an international number. And the spacing IS at it appeared on my phone. Any one here have a similar experience or mathaps the same number showed up on yours? RIDE SAFE.

About a month ago, I got a call from my own phone number.   No, I didn't answer it.

Have not had one that looked like that one did.  However I am getting a lot of calls from all over the U.S.  I just let them go to voicemail and none of them leave a message.

I don't answer anything that doesn't have a "local" area code except numbers from friends and family. If anything rings from NC (919 mostly), I usually just kill it. I might be nice enough to let unknown callers go to voicemail, but very few do that.

iPhone recently added an optional privacy feature: If the caller is not in your contact list or a number you recently called, the phone does not ring and the call goes straight to voice mail. If you have the notification turned on, you will receive a notification IF the caller leaves a voice mail. I like it.

         I've got 98 folks in my phone I know or deal with. Should any number show up that Isn't in my list I do NOT answer that call. Even should they leave a voice mail-99.38% of the calls don't-It's generally NOT something I'd be interested in. I'm just guessin here but I'd venture most of these calla Are scams. No thanks.                                                        RIDE SAFE.
