Silent Call Reports for 02 7235 7004
Four contributors have flagged 02 7235 7004 (also written as 0272357004) for suspicious calling behaviour. The most distinctive pattern involves silent calls where the line connects but no one speaks. One contributor answered a call from 02 7235 7004 and experienced several seconds of silence followed by disconnection, a common tactic used by automated dialling systems testing active numbers.
Beyond the confirmed silent call, three additional reports from NSW contributors describe uncertainty about the number's origin. These contributors noted that their phones either blocked the incoming call from 0272357004 automatically or flagged it as potentially suspicious before they could even answer. The pattern suggests either an automated system or a caller making repeated attempts from this local service number.
Call Patterns and Contributor Experiences
The reports for 02 7235 7004 span from late November through late January, indicating ongoing calling activity over a two-month period. One contributor's phone provider automatically blocked the call from 02 7235 7004 due to the number not being in their contacts, with the contributor themselves suspecting scam activity. Another received the call via their phone's native spam detection system, which flagged it as a dodgy scam suspect before the call could connect.
The timing and channel diversity suggests this number may be part of an automated calling campaign rather than a targeted individual scam. While most contributors couldn't determine the exact purpose of calls from 0272357004, the silent call tactic is commonly associated with number validation and lead generation systems.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What does a silent call from 02 7235 7004 mean?
One contributor answered 02 7235 7004 and heard only silence before the line disconnected. Silent calls often indicate an automated dialling system testing whether your number is active and monitored. These are commonly used by scam operations or lead-generation companies to validate phone numbers for later targeting. Do not engage with future calls from 0272357004 - hang up immediately.
Why did my phone block 02 7235 7004 automatically?
Several contributors reported that their phones automatically blocked calls from 02 7235 7004 because the number wasn't in their contacts. Modern phones also have built-in spam detection that may flag 0272357004 based on patterns of complaints from other users. This is a protective feature - if your device blocked it, trust that decision and keep the block active.
Should I call 02 7235 7004 back to find out who it is?
No. Do not call 0272357004 back. Returning the call confirms to the caller's system that your number is active and monitored, making it more likely you'll receive additional calls. If you want to know the caller's identity, use a reverse lookup service like Reverseau instead of calling back directly.
Is 02 7235 7004 definitely a scam?
Based on community reports, 02 7235 7004 (0272357004) is flagged as suspicious activity rather than confirmed scam. The silent call tactic and automatic blocking by phones suggest potentially unwanted calling behaviour, but the exact intent is unclear from available reports. Treat it as high-risk and block it to be safe.
What should I do if I keep getting calls from 0272357004?
First, block 02 7235 7004 on your phone using your device's native blocking feature. Second, report the repeated calls to ACMA at acma.gov.au and your phone provider. Third, add your experience to Reverseau so other contributors are aware. If the calls continue after blocking, your provider may escalate the case to investigate the source.
Who is NetSIP Pty Ltd and why are they calling from 02 7235 7004?
NetSIP Pty Ltd is the provider allocated to this local service number in NSW. However, the provider's name does not mean NetSIP itself is making the calls - the number could be used by any business or service registered through them. Community reports don't identify a specific caller, only that the calling behaviour (silent calls, blocking flags) is suspicious. Contact NetSIP or your own carrier to report the number if you want to escalate.
