WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What is a silent call and why does 02 8395 4434 use this tactic?
A silent call occurs when a number rings but the caller hangs up or says nothing when you answer. The report for 02 8395 4434 (0283954434) describes the caller disconnecting immediately, a common tactic used by scammers to test whether your phone number is active and in use.

Should I call back 02 8395 4434 if it calls me?
No. Do not return calls to 0283954434 or any silent caller. Returning the call confirms your number is active and monitored, which encourages more contact. Block the number instead and report it to ACMA.

Unlikely. Legitimate businesses leave voicemail messages or speak when you answer.

First, block the number on your phone to prevent future calls. Second, report it to ACMA (acma.gov.au) to help track calling patterns.
