Yes, this is a telemarketer. I have been getting multiple calls with either no response at all or a minimal few words and never responds to what you are saying before hanging up. After a week or so of this, I started calling the numbers, and they are repeats of some of the numbers people have listed here. The line gives "a please hold while connecting" message, and then you get a salesman trying to sell you stuff.
So here is the gimmick. This is a mass automated call thing, with recorded words or greetings (to create curiosity, that maybe its a real call & you got cut off, or if by chance you are expecting an important call) that then hang up, to try to get you to call back so they have a "live caller", and then they hook you up to a salesman, so the salesman doesn't have to waist their time on dead calls. A new low in telemarketing harassment. Everything from supposed cruise promotions to credit card promos to ED pills.
