Called, hung up & left no message. They do this so they can show they're "working" at collecting when all they're actually doing is boosting their metrics.
Not that your guess is implausible, but frequent call abandonment is typically a symptom of overcranking a predictive dialer until the call volume outstrips the number of warm bodies available in a call center.
