Silent Calls and Spam from 02 7813 7112
Five contributors have reported activity from 02 7813 7112 (also written as 0278137112), with patterns ranging from silent calls to unwanted marketing pitches. The most concerning reports involve silent calls escalating dramatically after initial contact - one contributor received 20 calls daily after accidentally triggering a callback. When called back with a hidden number, 0278137112 produces only silence on the other end, consistent with automated calling systems or callback scams.
The number is registered as a local service in NSW through NetSIP Pty Ltd. Contributors report a mixed pattern of unanswered marketing calls, car service spam, and research company calls that hang up without leaving voicemails.
What Callers from 02 7813 7112 Say
When 02 7813 7112 does connect with contributors, the pitches are brief and vague. One report describes a call claiming the contributor's car is due for service - a common vehicle-related spam tactic. Another contributor identified the caller as representing a marketing research company before hanging up.
The more troubling pattern involves calls that provide no message at all. One contributor noted that 02 7813 7112 would not leave a voicemail, only appearing as a missed call. When that same contributor later called back with their number blocked, they encountered complete silence - suggesting 0278137112 may be using automated systems that trigger repeated callback attempts rather than genuine human outreach.
Call Patterns and Escalation
Two contributors reported severe escalation after their initial interaction with 02 7813 7112. One received a single call during work hours, then experienced 20 calls each day subsequently. Another reported similar pattern: one initial call, followed by 20 daily calls. Both attempted to callback to understand the source, but 0278137112 responded only with silence.
The silent response when calling back is a red flag for callback scam behaviour - where automated systems detect return calls and log them for targeting, but provide no actual person or service on the receiving end. Call timing varies from business hours to late evening, with missed calls being most common.

Is 02 7813 7112 a legitimate car service reminder?
