Called, no message....

called my employer yesterday.

Call- Answer- Hang up- Repeat

No reply, no name at all on Caller ID display.

Answered the phone, they hung up. Caller ID said Biz Tax News.

Or Vancouver R.A. as opposed to Vancouver A.W.  (Real America vs America Wannabe)

This number called my San Jose line at around 19:40 GMT. I travel between the USA (to San Jose) and Europe, but my primary residence is in London, UK.

Left a voicemail which lasted 2.4 seconds and was completely silent, not even any background noise. I ran it through a video sampling system, and it is completely silent, as if there should have been a file playing, but it wasn't found or couldn't be played for some other reason, such as a codec missing or something similar.

When it dialled me, it was most definitely a auto-dialling machine, either a PC configured to run the software on the cloud, or one of those old automatic dialling machines. My guess would be that it is computer controlled, as the silence of the voicemails would not be as quiet, as the older automatic machine diallers, have a little hiss noise throughout, as the technology used to run the machine produced some interference on the same frequencies as that used on the telephone lines. Shielding the internal cabling and other components only removes some of the hissing noise which occurs on those frequencies.

Technically it is highly illegal for these machines to even be operated in America and across the world. If the culprits are found, then I believe the minimum penalty is something along the lines of 15 years.

I just got a call from this number at 10:10 AM (California Time) on Friday August 9th...

I saw it for what it was - an unwanted call. I'm glad I have Caller ID on my landline...

These xxx-holes are likely using robo-calling to get around the DNC List...

One has to always assume as well, that these kinds of calls are a scam or a rip-off - and treat them accordingly...

Rang wireline. Robo call. "If you have no tax problem, hang up...." I hung up! Duh? Number now blocked.

Illegal robocall with some tax help scam.  Caller ID shows Biz Tax News.  These calls are illegal no matter if you are on the DNC or not.  They are illegal period and should be reported to the FCC.

Bingo!

Vancouver, Washington is in the U.S.A.!  As I say, "Vancouver, A.D. as opposed to Vancouver, B.C. (American Dirt as opposed to British Columbia)."

I got a call from 360-322-6989 and no one speak.

Don't answer unknown numbers. If it is genuine they will leave a message.

I received a recorded call message from (360) 322 - 6989 purportedly from Biz Tax News which, according to an Internet search, is affiliated with (888) 814 - 4411. You can call that number to leave a voice mail message to opt out of future calls.

Stupid recording inquiring if you are struggling with your taxes - total spam bull crap
