WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Is 02 8357 6755 a legitimate number?
One contributor confirmed that 02 8357 6755 (0283576755) was a legitimate call from Care Flight, a charity organisation. However, two other contributors reported uncertainty about the number's purpose. This suggests the number may be used legitimately by Care Flight, but callers from 0283576755 should always be verified independently before you share personal information or make donations.
Why does 02 8357 6755 show as both legitimate and uncertain?
The mixed reports for 02 8357 6755 likely reflect different experiences with the same number. One contributor answered and recognised it as Care Flight; two others received calls or noted the number as suspicious without answering. This is common when a number is used by a legitimate organisation but may also field complaints about unwanted calls, or when the number has been used by different callers over time.
Should I answer if 02 8357 6755 calls me?
If you do not recognise 0283576755, letting it go to voicemail is safest. This allows the caller to explain their purpose and identify themselves. If the message is from Care Flight and you are interested, you can independently verify the charity by visiting their official website or calling their published phone number rather than using any contact details the caller provided.
What does the Sydney spam report mean for 02 8357 6755?
One contributor flagged 02 8357 6755 as Sydney spam without providing additional detail. This single note does not confirm the number is spam, especially given another contributor confirmed it as a legitimate Care Flight call. However, it suggests some callers may be using the number for unwanted contact, or the contributor may have received an unsolicited donation request.
How can I verify a donation request from 02 8357 6755?
If 0283576755 calls asking for a donation, never donate immediately or provide bank details. Instead, end the call politely and independently verify the charity. Visit Care Flight's official website directly, or call the main number listed there - do not call any number the caller provides. Legitimate charities respect verification and will not pressure you to donate without time to check.
What should I do if I keep getting calls from 02 8357 6755?
If calls from 02 8357 6755 (0283576755) become repetitive and unwanted, block the number on your phone. You can also register your number on the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au to reduce telemarketing calls. If you suspect the calls are fraudulent, report to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au. Sharing your experience on Reverseau helps other Australians understand this number.
