02 8530 3413 (0285303413): 7 reports of automated robocalls in multiple languages, including false Immigration Department claims and urgency tactics.
Robocall Reports for 02 8530 3413
Seven contributors have reported calls from 02 8530 3413 (also written as 0285303413), with a clear pattern of automated robocalls using multiple tactics. Four of the seven reports specifically mention robotic or automated voices, and the calls appear to span different languages and impersonation attempts. The number is provisioned through Symbio Networks in NSW as a local service.
The most recent report from October 2025 describes a voicemail from an automated voice claiming affiliation with the Immigration Department, requesting language selection. This impersonation attempt is particularly concerning given the official-sounding nature of the claim. Earlier reports from mid-2024 indicate similar robocall patterns with callers claiming urgent matters related to Amazon fees and generic "very important calls," suggesting this number may be cycling through different fraud scripts.
What Callers from 02 8530 3413 Have Left
Contributors receiving calls from 0285303413 report highly variable messaging. One caller used a robotic voice impersonating an Immigration Department representative and requested language selection in a voicemail. Another report describes automated messages about "very important calls" paired with urgency tactics designed to prompt immediate response. A third contributor reported receiving similar robocalls mentioning Amazon fees despite having no Amazon account history, indicating potential targeting of random numbers rather than actual account holders.
Several reports mention calls featuring voicemails in what contributors describe as Chinese or other Asian languages. Two contributors received multiple voicemails in these languages but were unable to understand the content. One report from April 2024 noted a call answered directly with a robotic voice speaking Chinese. The inconsistency across languages and messages suggests 02 8530 3413 may be used by multiple operators or rotating through different fraud campaigns.
Call Patterns and Timing
Reports for 02 8530 3413 span from April 2024 through October 2025, indicating sustained activity over 18 months.

Call types vary across channels: contributors have received answered calls, voicemails, and missed calls from 02 8530 3413, with some contributors receiving multiple contact attempts. One report specifically notes receiving "2-3 calls" about the same topic, indicating repeat calling behaviour.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What does the Immigration Department robocall from 02 8530 3413 ask for?
One contributor reported a voicemail from an automated voice claiming to be the Immigration Department, asking the recipient to choose a language. This is a common impersonation tactic. The Immigration Department does not initiate contact via automated robocalls requesting language selection. If you receive a similar message from 0285303413 or similar numbers, do not engage. Hang up and contact your official account through channels you initiate yourself using contact details from the government website.
Why am I receiving calls from 02 8530 3413 about Amazon when I don't have an account?
Multiple contributors reported calls from 0285303413 claiming urgent Amazon account issues and threatening fees, despite having no Amazon account history. This indicates the caller is either using randomly generated numbers or outdated contact lists, rather than targeting actual account holders. Scammers frequently use this tactic to cast a wide net, assuming some recipients will panic and provide personal information to verify they are not Amazon customers or to stop the calls.
What language are the robocalls from 02 8530 3413 in?
Several contributors have reported voicemails from 0285303413 in what they describe as Chinese or other Asian languages. The callers leave voicemails but the content is unclear to the recipients. Regardless of language, these appear to be automated messages (robocalls). Do not attempt to return the call or engage with the voicemail content. Block the number immediately.
Is 02 8530 3413 a legitimate NSW number?
02 8530 3413 is registered as a local service number in NSW with Symbio Networks as the provider. However, legitimate allocation does not mean the number is being used legitimately. Caller ID spoofing allows scammers to use authentic-looking Australian numbers. The seven reports indicate this number is being used for automated robocalls with false claims about government agencies and major companies, making it unsuitable for trust.
How often is 02 8530 3413 calling people?
Reports for 0285303413 span from April 2024 to October 2025, showing activity over 18 months. Four reports clustered in April 2024 within a two-day period, suggesting periods of increased calling activity. One contributor noted receiving 2-3 calls about the same topic. If you are receiving repeated calls from 02 8530 3413, block the number and report it to ACMA.
What should I do if I accidentally engaged with a call from 02 8530 3413?
If you answered a call from 0285303413 or pressed numbers in response to a prompt, monitor your accounts closely for suspicious activity. Do not provide any additional information. Block the number immediately. If the robocall mentioned a specific organisation (Amazon, Immigration Department, bank), contact that organisation directly using an official number from their website to confirm whether any action is needed on your account. Report the call to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au and ACMA at acma.gov.au.
