This is an automated call through an on-line VoIP provider with a bogus number that seems valid. The intent is malicious and is a result from your infected computer (windows) with iTunes that have an iPhone sycned or backed up to it. It's intention is to confirm that your identity is still valid, and by doing so tagging your infected computer as one worth abusing. The similar "confirmation process" in stolen credit card numbers are when attackers are placing $1 transactions to confirm a credit card is still valid, to divide the valid ones from the false or non-valid ones.

How does the trojan/spyware get your phone number? It scans your computer's iTunes database/backup and settings for your iPhone, gains your number and then calls it within normal business hours for your country-region to confirm if you answer. It calls a few times to be sure. If the call is answered this lets the attacker know you are a valid target worth abusing.

Immediately install antivirus/antispyware software and run in depth scans of your computer and external devices (usb drives, network drives, etc). For me and my Windows7, an updated version of the free-for-home-use Microsoft Security Essentials has solved the problem.

Best Regards and happy hunting.
