Robocall Report for 02 7245 9672
A contributor has reported receiving a call from 02 7245 9672 (also written as 0272459672) that exhibited classic robocall characteristics. When the contributor attempted to call the number back, they reached a robotic recording before the line disconnected.

Why Robocalls Hang Up When Called Back
Scammers and spam operators use robocalls to contact thousands of numbers simultaneously. The automated system dials but doesn't have capacity to handle return calls from interested targets. When you call back 02 7245 9672, you reach a recorded message or disconnection because the infrastructure is designed only for outbound automated dialling, not inbound conversation. This is a deliberate tactic to avoid accountability and detection.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What does it mean when a robocall hangs up or plays a recording when I call back?
When you call back 02 7245 9672 and reach only a robotic recording or disconnection, it indicates the number was used for outbound automated dialling only. Scammers use this method to contact many people without the cost of staffing inbound lines. Calling back 0272459672 confirms your number is active to the operator, which may increase future call attempts.
Should I engage with a robocall from 02 7245 9672?
No. Do not press any buttons, say anything, or stay on the line with a robocall from 02 7245 9672 (0272459672). Responding to the automated system confirms your number is monitored and may be targeted more frequently. Hang up immediately and block the number.
Is 02 7245 9672 definitely a scam?
One contributor reported robocall behaviour from 02 7245 9672, which is a strong indicator of misuse. However, a single report means we don't yet have a pattern of what message or claim the caller makes. The robocall format itself and the disconnection when called back are suspicious enough to warrant caution and blocking 0272459672.
Can a legitimate business use a robocall to reach me?
Legitimate Australian businesses must comply with the Do Not Call Register and cannot use robocalls without your prior express consent. If you receive an unsolicited robocall from 02 7245 9672 or 0272459672, it is not from a reputable organisation and should be blocked immediately.
Why does 02 7245 9672 show as a NSW local number?
The number 02 7245 9672 is allocated to a NSW service provider (Symbio Networks). However, allocation does not guarantee the number is used legitimately. Robocall operators can spoof or misuse legitimate number ranges. Always rely on reported behaviour, not the number's allocation, to assess risk.
What should I do if 0272459672 keeps calling me?
Block 02 7245 9672 immediately on your phone. If the calls continue from similar numbers, lodge a complaint with ACMA at acma.gov.au. If you are registered with the Do Not Call Register (donotcall.gov.au) and still receive unwanted robocalls from 0272459672, this is a violation and should be reported directly to the Register.
