02 7226 3872 (0272263872): Contributors report aggressive DoorDash impersonation calls with 90+ daily robocalls, silent voicemails, and requests for personal information.
DoorDash Impersonation and Robocall Reports for 02 7226 3872
02 7226 3872 (also written as 0272263872) has generated 15 confirmed reports combining impersonation tactics, aggressive robocall patterns, and silent call attacks. The dominant pattern involves callers claiming to represent DoorDash, often referencing order disputes or account issues, while simultaneously executing high-volume automated call campaigns. Contributors report receiving between 90-200 voicemail messages over days or weeks, with the number showing as a legitimate local NSW service number but behaving like an automated attack.
The impersonation tactic appears coordinated with urgency-based social engineering. One contributor received a call from someone named Alex claiming to be from DoorDash, stating they were short $30 on an order and fishing for payment information. Another report describes a caller with an Indian accent claiming to be a door-to-door worker, calling daily at 8am demanding personal details. A separate report flagged a voicemail claiming to be from Florida support about a prescription issue despite no delivery being ordered, immediately pushing recipients to press buttons on their phone.
Call Patterns and Volume
The scale of activity from 0272263872 is unusual. One contributor received approximately 200 voicemail messages in just 3 days, rendering their voicemail system unusable. Another reported 90-123 calls daily over a month, with voicemails containing only silence and automated messages. A third documented 18 calls in a single week at all hours, with every voicemail being complete silence, even after blocking the number.
Multiple contributors describe the same timing pattern: calls arriving at consistent times (particularly 8am) or during unusual hours (11pm to 8am). Several voicemails show signs of automated robocall systems, with silent periods followed by automated survey prompts or menu systems. One contributor noted that when they asked the live caller where they were calling from, there was no response, followed by two additional automated calls.
What Callers from 02 7226 3872 Claim
When live callers do engage from 02 7226 3872, they typically reference DoorDash account issues or order problems. Callers have claimed orders were messed up, items were soggy and inedible, or that the recipient owes money (one report specified $30). However, several contributors note they don't actually have DoorDash accounts, suggesting the impersonation is generic mass-targeting rather than account-specific.
The information-gathering angle appears deliberate. Contributors report callers specifically asking for personal information during these disputes. One voicemail from a claimed Florida support line referenced prescription issues without any context, attempting to trigger urgency and compliance with phone menu prompts. The messaging combines false authority (claiming to represent DoorDash or delivery services) with artificial urgency (immediate payment needed, account locked, issue must be resolved today).
Silent Calls and Robocall Behaviour
Beyond impersonation attempts, 02 7226 3872 exhibits classic robocall and silent call characteristics. Multiple contributors describe calling the number back only to find it disconnected or unresponsive. Others report receiving calls that consist entirely of silence or brief pauses followed by automated survey systems. One contributor received 8 calls between 7:50am and 8:30am, each voicemail containing silence followed by automated survey prompts.
The silent call pattern persists even after blocking. One contributor reported blocking 0272263872 but the calls continued to get through. Another documented calls between 11pm and 8am consisting only of dead air, with calls resuming after each block attempt. This behaviour is consistent with automated dialler systems cycling through blocked numbers or spoofing techniques.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 02 7226 3872
If 02 7226 3872 calls you:
- Do not: Answer or return the call, provide any personal or payment information, press any buttons on robocall menu prompts, or confirm your name or account details
- Do: Let it go to voicemail, block the number immediately (though note it may bypass blocks), verify any legitimate account issues by calling DoorDash directly on their official number from their website, and document the frequency and timing of calls for reporting
- If contacted about an account you don't have: Do not engage with the caller's narrative - this is a common tactic to establish false legitimacy
What to Do If You Receive a Voicemail from 02 7226 3872
If 0272263872 leaves voicemails:
- Do not: Click any links in voicemail transcriptions, return the call, press any menu options if the voicemail contains automated prompts, or provide information if you call back
- Do: Delete immediately, block the number, report the number to ACMA if calls are persistent and unrelenting, and forward voicemail details (including frequency and content) to Reverseau contributors section to help other Australians identify this pattern
- If voicemails are silent or repetitive: This is robocall activity - report to ACMA immediately as it violates calling restrictions
How to Report 02 7226 3872

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 02 7226 3872 show as a legitimate NSW number but behave like a scam?
02 7226 3872 appears to be a spoofed or compromised local NSW number (allocated to Symbio Networks). Scammers often spoof legitimate local numbers to bypass call screening and appear trustworthy. The number itself may not be making the calls - your phone is showing this number because the caller is masking their actual origin. This is why calling 0272263872 back either fails or goes to an unrelated service.
Is 02 7226 3872 actually calling from DoorDash?
No. While some contributors received calls falsely claiming to represent DoorDash from 0272263872, multiple reports indicate the number reached people without DoorDash accounts. DoorDash calls about legitimate account issues from their official support line, which you can verify by calling DoorDash directly through their app. If 02 7226 3872 contacts you about an order you never placed, it is definitely not legitimate.
Why am I receiving 90+ calls daily from 02 7226 3872?
This high-volume pattern is characteristic of automated robocall campaigns or 'call flooding' attacks. One contributor received 200 voicemail messages in 3 days; another documented 90-123 calls daily over a month. This suggests 0272263872 is being used as a vector for large-scale automated dialling, possibly targeting multiple phone numbers simultaneously. Report this to ACMA immediately, as it violates Australian telemarketing restrictions on call frequency.
What should I do if 02 7226 3872 keeps getting through even after I block it?
Contributors report that blocking 0272263872 does not stop calls - they continue from the same number or with slight variations. This indicates the caller is either spoofing the number (generating new calls that appear to come from 02 7226 3872) or using technology to bypass standard blocking. In addition to blocking, enable 'silence unknown callers' on your phone settings, add the number to spam lists in your phone's call screening app, and report the persistent pattern to ACMA, which can investigate widespread spoofing campaigns.
What information are callers from 02 7226 3872 trying to get from me?
Reports from 0272263872 indicate callers are fishing for personal information including names, account details, and payment information by fabricating DoorDash order disputes or claiming account issues. Callers have claimed recipients owe money (one report specified $30), are short on payments, or have account problems - false premises designed to trigger compliance. Never provide personal, financial, or account information to 02 7226 3872, and verify any legitimate account issue by contacting the company directly through official channels.
Are the silent voicemails and automated survey messages from 02 7226 3872 dangerous?
Yes. Multiple contributors report receiving silent voicemails followed by automated survey prompts from 0272263872. These serve two purposes: confirming your number is active (making it a target for further attacks) and attempting to get you to press buttons (which can trigger billing or connect you to scammers). Do not press any buttons on automated voicemail prompts from 02 7226 3872. If you receive persistent automated calls with silence, report to ACMA as this violates calling conduct rules.
