got a call

I keep getting calls from this number, 3 or 4 times in the last week.  When I answer, no one picks up.  If I don't answer, no one leaves a message.

Got an unsolicited call from this number.  They said they were from Academic Advisors.  I hung up.

I have a feeling it is a scam of some sort based upon posting your phone number on job search sites like Monster of CareerBuilder. Same as the Rockhopper post above: 3-4 calls a week with never any message left. Whomever it is seems to want only a live person to talk to or move onto the next number.

I tend to think the prior comments have hit this particular nail on the head....... my husband is out of work (anybody need a great systems operation/analyst?  :))...... and registered on many job sites.  We only see Branford CT as a caller id, but, we also get calls from "academ advrs" although from a different phone number.
