Silent Calls and Suspicious Activity from 02 4902 4703
Four contributors have reported contact from 02 4902 4703 (also written as 0249024703), a Telstra-listed local service number in NSW. The reports reveal a pattern of silent calls, missed rings, and at least one suspicious claim involving an automotive company. One contributor who answered received a call from someone claiming to represent Oz Car but chose not to engage further.
The most recent activity from 0249024703 involved silent call tactics, where the caller rang only a few times before disconnecting without leaving a message. This behaviour is common with robocalls and callback scams that test whether a number is active before escalating contact attempts.
What Callers from 02 4902 4703 Do
Contributors report that calls from 02 4902 4703 typically result in silence rather than conversation. One person who answered heard someone claiming affiliation with Oz Car, though they did not pursue the interaction. Another contributor noted the caller hung up after two rings with no voicemail left. Several reports describe the number ringing a few times then disconnecting, or calling but not leaving any message.
The inconsistency in behaviour - some calls answered, some missed, all ultimately disconnecting - suggests automated dialling rather than targeted contact. This pattern is typical of callback scam operations or list-verification campaigns that use silent calls to confirm active phone numbers for later scam attempts.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What does the Oz Car claim in the 02 4902 4703 reports mean?
One contributor who answered a call from 02 4902 4703 (0249024703) reported that the caller claimed to represent Oz Car. The contributor chose not to engage further. Oz Car is a legitimate automotive service, but scammers frequently impersonate real company names to sound credible. If you receive a similar call claiming to be from Oz Car or any automotive company, always verify by calling the company directly using a phone number from their official website, not any number the caller provides.
Why does 02 4902 4703 hang up without speaking?
Silent calls from 02 4902 4703 are likely part of an automated callback verification system. Scammers and telemarketers use these calls to confirm your number is active and monitored. When you answer (or when the call rings and disconnects), they confirm the number works and may target it again later with actual scam attempts. This is why blocking 0249024703 after the first silent call is important - it prevents the number cycling back to you.
Is 02 4902 4703 a scam or just spam?
Community reports for 02 4902 4703 suggest suspicious activity rather than a confirmed scam, though the silent call tactics are warning signs. Two reports describe the behaviour as uncertain, one as nuisance, and one as suspicious (the Oz Car claim). The silent call pattern and missed rings indicate automated testing rather than legitimate customer service. Treat calls from 0249024703 as high-risk and block them.
Should I call 02 4902 4703 back if it appears on my phone?
No. Do not call 02 4902 4703 back. Returning the call could confirm your number is monitored and lead to repeated contact. Contributors who received calls from 0249024703 found that blocking the number was the most effective response. If you need to contact Oz Car or any company that may have called, always look up their official phone number independently on their website.
How many times has 02 4902 4703 been reported?
Four contributors have reported contact from 02 4902 4703 (0249024703) over several months. Two reports describe missed calls where the number rang briefly then stopped, one details a silent answer with immediate hang-up, and one mentions a suspicious Oz Car claim. While this is a smaller report volume than some numbers, the consistent pattern of silent calls and the Oz Car claim warrant caution.
What should I do if 02 4902 4703 keeps calling after I block it?
If you continue receiving calls from 02 4902 4703 or similar patterns from different numbers, report the activity to ACMA (acma.gov.au) and lodge a Do Not Call Register complaint at donotcall.gov.au. Document each call time and whether it's silent or voiced. If the calls escalate to threats, requests for payment, or personal information, also report to Scamwatch (scamwatch.gov.au).
