    I had a one ring call today from 00 678 520 1088.

    Curiosity made me google 00 678 and discovered that it is international code for Vanuatu. Never heard of the place but further search
    found MTL blog :-

    Weird. I was also in Westmeath today and had a missed call from Vanuatu too. Didn’t answer it once I didn’t recognise the prefix

    If it's not an Irish or UK number, I tend to ignore it.
