Unknown Caller Activity on 03 4517 8547
A contributor has reported receiving calls from 03 4517 8547 (also written as 0345178547) that disconnect without leaving a message. The caller rang twice in succession, both times dropping off without voicemail, leaving the recipient uncertain about the caller's identity or intent.
This Symbio Networks local service number in Victoria has generated one report so far, classified as uncertain rather than confirmed spam or scam. The pattern of repeated silent calls with no message suggests either a misdial, automated system, or a caller testing whether the number is active.
Call Pattern from 03 4517 8547
The single report about 0345178547 indicates back-to-back calls within a short period. The contributor received no voicemail, making it impossible to determine the caller's purpose. Such repeated attempts without a message are common with callback scams, telemarketing systems testing active numbers, or genuine misdials.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 03 4517 8547
If 03 4517 8547 calls you:
- Do: Let the call go to voicemail and wait for a message
- Do: Block the number if calls repeat without messages being left
- Do: Check your phone bill for any charges associated with returned calls
- Do not: Return the call immediately, especially if you don't recognise the number
- Do not: Answer if you're unsure, as this confirms your number is active to potential telemarketers
Distinguishing Between Callback Scams and Legitimate Calls
Repeated calls from 0345178547 without voicemail fit the pattern of callback scams, where callers hang up hoping recipients will return the call and incur premium charges. However, they could equally be system errors or misdials. The key difference: legitimate businesses always leave a message or send SMS confirmation.
If the number 03 4517 8547 continues calling without ever leaving a voicemail, treating it as suspicious is reasonable. If a single message appears after blocking, the caller was likely genuine.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What does it mean when 03 4517 8547 calls but leaves no message?
Silent calls with no voicemail can indicate several things: a callback scam testing if your number is active, an automated telemarketing system, a misdial, or a genuine caller who changed their mind. The contributor's report of 03 4517 8547 dropping off twice suggests either a scammer checking for active numbers or a system error. Legitimate callers almost always leave a message or follow up with SMS.
Should I call back 0345178547?
No. The single report about 0345178547 involved repeated silent calls with no message left. Calling back a number that doesn't leave a message can confirm your number is active to potential scammers or result in premium-rate charges from callback scam operations. Block the number if calls persist.
Is 03 4517 8547 a scam?
One contributor flagged 03 4517 8547 as uncertain rather than confirmed scam. The pattern of two silent calls without voicemail is suspicious but not conclusive. It could be a callback scam, automated system, or misdial. If calls from 0345178547 continue, treat it as suspicious and block. If no further contact occurs, it was likely a one-off error.
Why do callers hang up without leaving a message from 03 4517 8547?
The contributor's experience with 03 4517 8547 (0345178547) dropping off twice without message fits two likely scenarios: callback scams, where callers intentionally hang up to prompt return calls and generate premium charges; or automated telemarketing systems testing number validity before launching campaigns. Genuine callers leave messages.
Can I block 0345178547 permanently?
Yes. Most phone devices and providers allow permanent blocking. Since the contributor received two calls from 03 4517 8547 without voicemail, blocking prevents further disruption. If the caller has a legitimate reason to reach you, they'll send SMS or voicemail as confirmation of identity.
How do I report repeated silent calls from 03 4517 8547?
Report 03 4517 8547 (0345178547) to ACMA at acma.gov.au if calls are frequent or disruptive. Document the date, time, and pattern of calls from 0345178547. Also report to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au if you suspect a callback scam, and consider reporting on Reverseau to alert other Australians about this caller.
