Abandoned Calls: The line was dialled and dropped before anyone spoke — the signature of a predictive dialler placing more calls than it has agents to answer. The FCC's telemarketing rules cap abandoned calls at 3% of answered calls.

Internet (VOIP): Reported as arriving over a VoIP service. VoIP origination is cheap to obtain and quick to abandon, which is why high-volume campaigns favour it.
