On the other hand, when I do answer quickly, the actual caller is a business that is wanting to sell me something. If you try calling back the number, you will not get an answer.
It is not a good idea to call back a number that you do not know. You could be making an overseas call that that will cost you a lot of money. The charge will show up on your phone bill and your phone provider will not remove the charge because you made the call and they have to pay the overseas provider.
