One contributor reported receiving a call from 02 7235 1882 describing it as an Indian call centre asking about health insurance. The call centre nature and unsolicited health insurance inquiry raised concerns about legitimacy, though a single report limits certainty. Check the ACMA register at acma.gov.au to see if this number is registered for telemarketing.
Why would a call centre from 02 7235 1882 ask about my health insurance?
Calls asking about health insurance from 0272351882 are typically lead generation attempts-the caller collects names and insurance status to sell contact details to insurance companies or other businesses. This is why the contributor flagged the call as suspicious, even if no outright scam occurred.
Should I call 0272351882 back?
No. If you did not initiate contact with 02 7235 1882, do not return the call. Callback requests from unsolicited numbers can trigger further unwanted contact or enable the caller to verify your number is active, leading to more calls.

Is this number a scam or just telemarketing?
Based on the single report for 02 7235 1882, it appears to be unsolicited telemarketing or lead generation rather than a financial scam.
