The act of hanging around the home telephone, not doing much more than waiting for a "call-back" as promissed by the recorded message you left; the computer generated "we will call you back with-in XX minutes; or even if you happen to get a "live person", who states "I'll get right back to you"! Hovering or remaining near the phone so as not to miss a call, which in most cases, NEVER HAPPENS! Usually from a GOVERNMENT AGENCY, but not limited to that. A cordless phone would be a "Hoverphone"

A person hailing from India who tries to deceive you out of anything of value using the telephone. They claim to want to lower your credit card interest rate but ask for your credit card information over the phone.
“Hold on a second, have another call- ah never mind it’s just the Phone Gaandus trying to get my credit card number. Go on..”
