Job Recruitment and Spam Reports for 02 8530 7348
The number 02 8530 7348 (also written as 0285307348) has generated 16 community reports with a distinctive split: seven reports describe job recruitment calls claiming to offer nursing positions at hospitals, while several contributors flag silent calls and spam behaviour. The number is allocated to Symbio Networks Pty Ltd, a New South Wales-based local service provider.
Most job-related calls mention a "Dr Jennifer" or "Dr Jenny" recruiting for nursing roles, either as afternoon shift positions or on-the-job trainee placements at hospitals. Contributors report receiving multiple calls within days using similar language patterns. One contributor noted the job recruitment calls were "highly likely job vacancy calls in hospital", while others described the caller as "looking for employee in hospital" with details about trainee positions.
Job Recruitment Call Patterns
Seven separate reports about 0285307348 describe job recruitment calls. The pattern is consistent: callers claim hospital affiliation, mention specific roles (afternoon shift nurse, on-job trainee), and reference a Dr Jennifer or Dr Jenny. Contributors received these calls across early-to-mid March 2026, with multiple calls reaching the same person within days (reports from March 9, 13, 19, and continuing through March 25).
One contributor characterised the calls as "highly likely job vacancy calls in hospital", while another simply noted "Dr Jennifer looking for nurse in a hospital". The repeated nature and identical messaging patterns across reports suggest these may be batch calling campaigns rather than legitimate hospital recruitment.
Silent Calls and Spam Behaviour from 02 8530 7348
Beyond job recruitment, 02 8530 7348 generated reports of silent calls and hang-ups. Two contributors reported the number engaged in silent call behaviour (calls that disconnect when answered or ring without voice contact). One contributor who called back after a silent call "got no connection". Another contributor explicitly identified the number as associated with Symbio Networks and described it as "spam" with "hang-up caller" behaviour.
A contributor familiar with network provider attribution noted: "Checked the ACMA database and it's another SYMBIO NETWORKS number, the trash company owned by Aussie Broadband where most scam calls originate." This suggests the number may be assigned to a call centre operation, though allocation data confirms it is indeed a Symbio Networks service.
The AGL Impersonation Report
One contributor reported an earlier scam attempt from 02 8530 7348 where an "Indian guy" called claiming an outstanding electricity bill and, when pressed, claimed to represent AGL. The contributor verified they had no AGL account with this supposed debt, and the caller hung up immediately upon hearing "no". This single impersonation report stands apart from the dominant job recruitment pattern, suggesting the number may be used by multiple call centre operations or has been spoofed.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 02 8530 7348
If 02 8530 7348 calls you:
- Do not: Engage with job offers if you are not actively job-seeking, provide personal or banking details, or call back after a hang-up
- Do: Let calls go to voicemail, verify job offers independently by contacting the hospital directly via their official website or phone number, and block the number if calls persist
- For silent calls: Hang up immediately and do not return the call, as callback attempts may incur charges or connect you to premium-rate services
- If you identify spoofing: Do not assume the number shown is the actual caller - report the incident with call details to ACMA

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Is the job recruitment call from 02 8530 7348 legitimate?
Probably not. Seven contributors report identical or near-identical messaging about "Dr Jennifer" or "Dr Jenny" recruiting nurses, all within a short time frame in March 2026. Legitimate hospitals recruit through official career pages and do not typically cold-call with such generic descriptions. Before responding to any job offer from 02 8530 7348, contact the hospital directly via their official website or phone number (not numbers the caller provides) to verify the position exists.
What should I do if 02 8530 7348 calls about an outstanding utility bill?
Hang up immediately and do not engage. One contributor reported a caller claiming an AGL debt; when the contributor denied having an AGL account, the caller disconnected. If you have a legitimate utility debt, your provider will contact you through official channels. Never provide personal or banking information to unsolicited callers from 02 8530 7348 claiming to represent AGL, Ausgrid, or similar providers.
Why does 02 8530 7348 hang up or stay silent when I answer?
Two contributors reported silent calls or hang-ups from 0285307348, and one who called back got no connection. This pattern is consistent with robocall or callback-lure tactics where a system dials numbers and disconnects if no automated voice response is triggered, or if the call is flagged as non-responsive. Do not call back; instead, block the number and report it to ACMA.
Is 02 8530 7348 really from Symbio Networks?
Yes, the number 0285307348 is allocated to Symbio Networks Pty Ltd, a New South Wales local service provider. However, the actual caller or organisation using this line may not be Symbio itself. The line may be leased to a call centre, recruitment agency, or unauthorised operator. One contributor noted Symbio Networks as a known source of spam and scam calls, but this allocation alone does not prove the caller's claimed identity (AGL, hospital, etc.).
How many people have reported 02 8530 7348?
16 contributors have submitted reports about 0285307348 as of late March 2026. Seven reports describe job recruitment calls, three describe spam or silent calls, one describes AGL impersonation, and the remainder flag the number as uncertain or suspicious. The concentration of job recruitment reports within days suggests coordinated calling activity.
Should I report 02 8530 7348 to ACMA?
Yes. Whether the call was a job recruitment spam, silent call, or impersonation attempt, report it to ACMA at acma.gov.au. If you believe the number was spoofed (the caller was not actually calling from 0285307348), include that detail. For impersonation scams like the AGL claim, also report to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au. Community reports help ACMA identify patterns and take enforcement action against repeat offenders.
