Hi Guys and Girls

I got an inbound call from 08432114198 today. My Touch HD froze when I wanted to accept and when it finally did I found myself on hold and eventually connected to a voice mail box with the company not identifying themselves. I only then noticed, when ending the call, that I called out and incurred a charge. Obviously, if I press pick-up when they ended the call I call out. Just wondering whether there's a way for the inbound caller to make my HD freeze as it did to trick me into calling out and getting a chunk of my call costs? It probably is a stupid question just wondered as it was an unsolicited call from a high rate number and the caller didn't identified themselves. HD works fine on any other call. Is it me being paranoid?

Thank you for your time and thoughts.
