Silent Calls and Spam from 02 8607 5303
Five contributors have reported activity from 02 8607 5303 (also written as 0286075303), a local NSW number. The primary pattern involves silent calls where the caller hangs up or sits silently when answered, combined with persistent wine club marketing calls. One contributor noted they blocked this number last year, but calls have resumed recently with two separate calls within a week.
The majority of reports about 0286075303 describe calls from someone claiming to represent a wine club, identified as "Tommy." Multiple contributors expressed frustration at the persistence of these calls, indicating this is an ongoing issue rather than a one-off contact attempt.
What Callers from 02 8607 5303 Do
Contributors describe two distinct call patterns from 02 8607 5303. The first involves silent calls where the line goes dead or the caller remains silent when you answer. One contributor specifically noted that "the caller just sits there in silence when you pick up," suggesting either automated callback verification or intentional silent tactics.
The second pattern involves wine club sales calls. A contributor reported receiving calls from "Tommy from the Wine club," describing the caller as persistent and unwilling to accept refusals. The repetition of this specific claim across multiple reports (including duplicate submissions on the same day) suggests a coordinated or systematic calling campaign from 0286075303.
Call Patterns and Timing
Recent activity from 02 8607 5303 shows an uptick after a period of silence. One contributor mentioned blocking the number last year, yet it has resurfaced with calls both yesterday and today relative to their report on 3 March 2026. This pattern of resuming calls after extended gaps is consistent with automated list cycling or campaign restarts.
Silent calls account for one confirmed report, though the frequency of silent calls versus answered marketing calls is unclear from available data. The wine club calls appear more frequent and deliberate, with the same caller name appearing across separate reports.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 02 8607 5303
If 02 8607 5303 calls you:
- Do not: Engage with silent callers, provide personal information, or agree to any wine club offers on the spot
- Do: Let silent calls go to voicemail, hang up immediately if you hear silence, and block the number in your phone
- For wine club calls: Politely decline and ask to be removed from their calling list; if calls persist, this may constitute harassment under Australian Consumer Law
- Do not: Return the call if you're unsure of the caller identity
- Do: Mark as spam or block after the first unwanted call
Silent Call Tactics Explained
Silent calls from 02 8607 5303 could indicate callback verification testing (checking if your number is active and answers), or they may be intentional harassment. Either way, repeated silent calls from the same number warrant blocking. Some silent call campaigns are used to build lists of active numbers that are then sold to other telemarketers, meaning one silent call from 0286075303 could lead to increased calls from other sources if you engage.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 02 8607 5303 hang up when I answer?
One contributor reported silent calls from 02 8607 5303 where the caller sits in silence. This is often callback verification - the caller is checking if your number is active and answers calls. It could also indicate a robocall system that drops the line when a real person answers instead of an answering machine. Either way, block 0286075303 and do not call back.
Is 0286075303 a wine club scam?
Multiple contributors report calls from "Tommy from the Wine club" at 02 8607 5303. While not necessarily a scam, it is persistent unwanted marketing. The callers claim to represent a wine club and are described as persistent. These calls fit the profile of spam telemarketing rather than a financial scam, but they should still be blocked and reported.
Should I call back 02 8607 5303?
No. Do not call back 0286075303. If you do not recognise the caller and they have called you, there is no legitimate reason to return the call. Calling back silent lines or unknown callers confirms your number is active and monitored, which can increase future spam calls.
I blocked 02 8607 5303 before but they keep calling - what's happening?
One contributor reported blocking 0286075303 over a year ago, but the number has recently resurfaced with new calls. This suggests the caller has reactivated or restarted their calling campaign. Block again immediately, register with the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au, and report to ACMA at acma.gov.au if the calls continue after 30 days.
What should I do if 0286075303 calls but I don't answer?
If you see a missed call from 02 8607 5303, do not return it. Block the number in your phone settings. If they do not leave a voicemail, there is no message of importance. Silent or message-free calls are typically low-priority spam or callback verification tests.
Are these calls from 02 8607 5303 illegal?
Silent calls and unwanted telemarketing from 0286075303 may violate the Do Not Call Register if your number is registered, or Australian Consumer Law if they are misleading. Report persistent calls to ACMA (acma.gov.au). Multiple contributors report ongoing calls from this number, which strengthens a complaint about harassment or spam.
