WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why do I keep getting calls from 02 7245 4025?
02 7245 4025 (0272454025) appears to be part of an automated robocalling campaign. Robocallers often dial numbers in sequences, which means you may be receiving multiple calls if your number was generated or harvested into their calling list. Contributors report repeated contact from this number, suggesting it's actively cycling through batches of calls rather than targeting individuals specifically.
What happens if I press a key when the 0272454025 robocall asks me to?
Pressing any key on your phone when receiving automated calls from 02 7245 4025 confirms to the robocalling system that your number is active and monitored by a real person. This typically results in more calls from 0272454025 and potentially other numbers, as your number gets flagged as viable for future campaigns. Contributors who did not respond reported fewer subsequent calls.
Is the Chinese-language voicemail from 02 7245 4025 a targeted scam?
One contributor received a Chinese-language voicemail from 0272454025 asking to press one for more Chinese content. This appears to be part of a broad robocalling operation targeting multiple language groups rather than a targeted scam aimed at specific individuals. The automated system is likely testing different languages to identify responsive audiences.
Should I call back 02 7245 4025 to ask them to stop?
No. Do not call back 0272454025 under any circumstances. Robocall operations like this do not have functional customer service lines, and calling back only confirms your number is active. This will lead to more calls from this number and potentially others. Block the number instead and report it to ACMA at acma.gov.au.
Can I block 02 7245 4025 on my phone?
Yes. Most modern phones allow you to block specific numbers. For 0272454025, go to your call history, find the number, and select 'Block' or 'Add to Blocked List'. If you're using an older phone or landline, contact your service provider about call blocking options. Blocking 02 7245 4025 will prevent calls from this specific number but does not stop other robocalls.
What should I report to ACMA about 02 7245 4025?
When reporting 0272454025 to ACMA at acma.gov.au, include the date and time you received the call, whether it was answered or went to voicemail, and a description of what happened (automated voicemail in Chinese, request to press a key, etc.). If the call appeared designed to scam you, note that in your report. Contributors' reports help ACMA identify patterns and take action against robocalling networks.
