My PRIVATE cellphone & number are fairly new. This number has been given to 3 people, grand total, and they are all in ONE specific area code. This SPAM from Chicago was obvious garbage...and was NOT answered.
Unfortunately, a "new" phone number is almost never "new".

"Almost 37 million phone numbers get recycled each year, a 16% increase since 2007, according to the most recent figures from the Federal Communications Commission. That means with more and more people going cellular, it is increasingly common to get calls intended for previous subscribers. "
Call blocker didn't let it ring, it went directly to the log page. The caller did not leave a message. Thank goodness I have a call blocker app! It works great at holding these annoying spammers at bay. They never leave a message either.
