I got a call from this number. Bangor, Wales as others have mentioned. The phone call was just a robot voice of "Goodbye" and nothing after it. I waited ~10 seconds and hung up. They did not call back. Like others, I suspect this is some kind of scam, but I am not sure what their aim is, given that I didn't say anything other than "Hello" and "What?" during the call.
