I would be willing to bet they are political calls.

I've had the same thing happen. Sometimes I answer an unknown caller if I'm waiting for a requested call-back and I've had a couple calls from the dead zone in the last few months.

Maybe they are just robo-calling to verify the number is a good one and somehow selling it as a "verified" list of numbers that someone might answer?

But do you need to call every 6 or 10 minutes for a 3 hour stretch to verify the number is good? Seems like you could verify with one call - why do 15 per day?

Do the repeats continue if you answer or does answering end it?

I generally answer any unknown number if I get 2 calls in a short time. Doesn't always end well, but if someone needed to get ahold of me, this is what I'd expect from them, so I answer.

The string of calls will continue even if I answer and speak, VM picks up, or I activate the screen function.

There is ample evidence my number is active, yet the calls continue.

And to KS - I appreciate the “nuclear option” of rejecting all calls unless in my contacts, but there are plenty of first time calls I need to take.

You can also choose to reject calls that don't id numbers then choose to answer or not.
That's what I do.

I have no clue what they are after. Agree it doesn't make sense to keep calling but the world of robot communication is apparently effective enough to drive a lot of it...

Hope you figure it out and don't have to worry.

Well, since they never speak on the random times I do answer or the VM picks up, they are not very effective.
