WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What is a robocall and why would 02 9758 7240 use one?
A robocall is an automated call generated by a computer system rather than a human caller. The contributor who reported 0297587240 received a voicemail in Chinese from a robotic voice, indicating this number uses automated dialling technology. Robocalls are typically used for mass outreach campaigns because they're cheaper to operate than hiring staff to make individual calls.
Why was the voicemail from 02 9758 7240 in Chinese?
The voicemail left on 0297587240 was delivered in Chinese by a robotic voice. This could indicate the robocall campaign targets Chinese-speaking Australians, or the call may have been misdirected. Without more reports, it's unclear whether this is a scam, telemarketing, or genuine service notification.
Should I call back 02 9758 7240 if I missed the call?
No. Do not return calls to 0297587240 or similar robocall numbers. Calling back unknown robocall sources can confirm your number is active and lead to more calls. If the voicemail was important, the caller would typically leave clear contact details or callback instructions.
Is 02 9758 7240 a scam or just a nuisance?
Based on the single community report, 0297587240 has been categorised as a nuisance call rather than a confirmed scam. The robocall left a voicemail in Chinese without making any fraud claims or payment demands. However, robocalls can sometimes be linked to phishing or investment scams, so treat any follow-up contact with caution.
How do I block 02 9758 7240 on my phone?
Most Australian mobile phones allow you to block numbers directly. In your phone's call history or contacts, find 0297587240, select the option to block or report as spam, and confirm. On iPhone, use the Call Blocking & Identification settings; on Android, use the Phone app's block feature. Once blocked, calls from 02 9758 7240 will go straight to voicemail.
Why should I report 02 9758 7240 to ACMA?
