Suspicious Activity Reported for 02 5022 1311

A single contributor has flagged 02 5022 1311 (also written as 0250221311) for suspicious calling behaviour. The report describes receiving two calls within two days from this number. When the contributor attempted to call back 0250221311, they encountered only elevator music rather than a person or business voicemail, raising concerns about the legitimacy of the caller.

The number is registered as a local service in Victoria via Symbio Networks Pty Ltd. This type of response when calling back a number that initiated contact is a common indicator of either a spoofed number or an automated system designed to mask the caller's true identity.

What This Report Indicates

The pattern of repeated calls combined with the inability to reach anyone when returning the call suggests this may not be a standard business operation. Legitimate businesses typically have proper call handling systems, voicemail greetings, or staff to answer incoming calls. The elevator music response is often associated with abandoned call systems or spoofed numbers used in scam or spam operations.

While a single report provides limited context about the caller's intentions, the behaviour described is consistent with numbers flagged by other Reverseau contributors for unwanted calling activity. The fact that 02 5022 1311 called multiple times in quick succession suggests automated or persistent outreach rather than a missed connection.
