bigwagonYou messed up not answering. It was definitely someone who wanted to give you lots of money.

bendableUsually unknown numbers are accompanied by notes that say
" Possible spam or spam .
This did not.
The location under the incoming missed phone number claims way cross ,ga
But Google says brunswick

egregoreEverybody does things differently and this may not even apply to you at all, but I personally have three ringtones. One is for family, another for business associates, and the third (the default) is for anyone not on my list of contacts. With very few exceptions, this one doesn't get answered.

RogBBrunswick was no doubt a spoofed name and number, originating in India. Virtually none of the calls are from the location that pops up on your caller ID.

ridgeratIt's "Election season," so the robocalls and texts will be flowing!
The government made sure to make it OK for them to inundate us with political messages.

joel9507Brunswick is not far from a great place to watch birds, Little St. Simon's Island.
Maybe the migratory birds have sprung for 5G service?

MuddflapIf they didn’t leave a message, it’s not too important.

bendableThat's the other thing,
I deactivated my messages because I was getting so many ads and spam and unwanted solicitations.

bendableThe only reason I asked this, here is because
Over a three decade period,
I ve spoken on the phone with three Different Forum members from Georgia.
Not on regular basis.
But I didn't know where they were from in GA

911BossIf I don’t know the number or it isn’t in my contacts, they get my VM which politely tells them due to unwanted calls I don’t answer who I don’t know and they can leave a message.

This. Telemarketers/scammers/robocallers can easily make the Caller ID display any phone number and location they want with just a click of a mouse. It's called "spoofing".
There was even a period several years ago where some were using software to spoof calls to look like they originated from the number dialed. That is, your phone would ring, and the Caller ID would be your own phone number.
