Robocall and Silent Call Reports for 02 7245 8213
Four contributors have flagged 02 7245 8213 (also written as 0272458213) for suspicious calling behaviour. The reports indicate a pattern of automated robocalls and silent calls where the caller disconnects without leaving a message. One contributor received an automated voice message saying "hello dear user" before the line went dead, while others experienced multiple missed calls with no voicemail left behind.
The number is allocated to Symbio Networks Pty Ltd as a local service based in NSW, with a North Ryde area code. The combination of robocall activity and silent calls suggests potential callback scam tactics or automated spam dialling.
What Callers from 02 7245 8213 Do
The robocall from 02 7245 8213 uses a recorded automated message with the greeting "hello dear user" - a common callback scam indicator. After delivering this pre-recorded message, the call terminates, which is typical of robocall systems testing active numbers or attempting to trigger a callback response.
Multiple contributors also reported receiving calls from 0272458213 where the caller hung up after 4 rings without attempting to leave a voicemail. This silent call pattern appears deliberate - callers who genuinely need to reach someone typically leave a message. The absence of voicemails across multiple reports suggests automated dialling rather than legitimate business contact.
Report Patterns and Timing
The most recent report for 02 7245 8213 came in today, with the robocall occurring early morning. Three additional reports of silent/missed calls occurred in late July, showing ongoing activity from this number over several months. All calls were received without any legitimate follow-up communication or voicemail messages, which distinguishes them from standard business contact attempts.
The contributor who answered the robocall from 02 7245 8213 noted the immediate hang-up after the recorded greeting, while others experienced the call pattern of ringing multiple times then disconnecting - typical callback scam behaviour designed to prompt return calls to premium-rate or monitored numbers.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 02 7245 8213
If 02 7245 8213 calls you:
- Do not: Answer unknown numbers, return the call, or engage with recorded messages
- Do: Let the call go to voicemail, block the number immediately if it repeats, and do not press any keys or respond to prompts
- Important: Callback scams use robocalls to trick you into calling back to numbers you think are legitimate. Never return a call you didn't initiate, especially to unfamiliar numbers

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What does 'hello dear user' mean in the robocall from 02 7245 8213?
The recorded message 'hello dear user' from 02 7245 8213 is a common callback scam tactic. Scammers use generic automated greetings to test if your number is active and will respond. The immediate hang-up after this message is designed to trigger curiosity and prompt you to call back the number, which may connect you to a premium-rate service or allow scammers to record your voice. Never return calls you didn't initiate, especially from 0272458213.
Why do silent calls from 0272458213 hang up without leaving a message?
Silent calls from 0272458213 that disconnect after 4 rings without voicemail are typical of automated robocall systems. These systems dial thousands of numbers rapidly to identify active phone numbers and potential targets. The lack of voicemail indicates the caller isn't trying to reach you for legitimate business - they're harvesting active numbers for scam campaigns or selling contact lists to other scammers.
Is 02 7245 8213 a legitimate business number?
The number 02 7245 8213 is allocated to Symbio Networks Pty Ltd, a legitimate ISP provider in NSW. However, the reports about this specific number suggest it may have been compromised, spoofed (displayed on caller ID to appear as something it isn't), or used by scammers. Scammers frequently spoof legitimate business numbers to appear trustworthy. Do not assume legitimacy based solely on allocation data - the reported behaviour of robocalls and silent calls indicates suspicious activity from 0272458213.
Should I call back 02 7245 8213 to ask who they are?
No. Do not call back 02 7245 8213 under any circumstances. Calling back is exactly what callback scammers want - it confirms your number is active and responds. You may be connected to a premium-rate service, a scam operation, or simply add your number to scam target lists. If you're concerned about a missed call from 0272458213, search the number on Reverseau first, then contact the supposed caller directly using a phone number you find independently (not one provided by the caller).
Could the robocall from 0272458213 be a legitimate service provider?
Unlikely. Legitimate service providers like banks, utilities, and government agencies do not use pre-recorded automated greetings saying 'hello dear user' and then hang up. They also do not make silent calls without leaving voicemails. The behaviour reported from 02 7245 8213 - robocall with generic greeting followed by immediate disconnection - is characteristic of callback scams or automated spam operations, not genuine business contact.
What should I do if I already called back 02 7245 8213?
Monitor your phone bill closely for unexpected charges from premium services or unfamiliar numbers. If you provided personal information to anyone after calling 0272458213, consider reporting to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au. Do not provide banking details, passwords, or identity information if contacted again from 02 7245 8213 or similar numbers. Report the callback scam attempt to ACMA at acma.gov.au and add the number to your phone's blocked list immediately.
