Getting about 3 x 0488 number calls per day. Block each one. It hangs up if you answer.

Fed Up replied 9/3/20, 8:16 PM

I’m getting about five calls a day from prefix 0488 - never answer an unknown caller ID. The call number are all a variation on the 0488. Blocked them but seems pointless, they come up with another number. Oh and NEVER leave a message. This has been going for about a week at this rate.
