Silent Call and Robocall Reports for 03 7045 1957
Six contributors have reported suspicious activity from 03 7045 1957 (also written as 0370451957), a local Victorian number allocated to Symbio Networks. The pattern is distinctive: four reports describe silent or near-silent calls, with one report mentioning a robotic message followed by someone asking detailed questions about the recipient's employment and clients.
What makes these reports concerning is the combination of tactics. Multiple contributors received repeated calls within short timeframes - one person reported five calls in a single day, while another experienced multiple calls across two days. When one contributor tried calling back 0370451957, the number was disconnected, a classic sign of spoofing or temporary number misuse.
What Callers from 03 7045 1957 Say and Do
The silent calls from 03 7045 1957 are unsettling by design. One contributor described receiving a silent voicemail that "felt creepy," while another reported the same experience across multiple voicemails from this number. A contributor who answered the call reported someone claiming to be "Honey from next dc" before going silent.
More troubling is the robocall report. One recipient answered to hear a robotic message, followed by a person with an Indian accent who had already gathered personal information. The caller rattled off the recipient's name and job title, then proceeded to ask detailed questions about their software systems and clients. This information-gathering approach suggests potential corporate espionage or social engineering rather than simple spam.
Call Patterns and Frequency
The intensity of calls from 03 7045 1957 is notable. One contributor received five calls in a single day, while another experienced multiple calls across two consecutive days. The calls come through different channels - some as silent voicemails, others as answered calls - suggesting either automated dialling with manual follow-up or multiple actors using the same number.
The timing and repetition indicate this is not accidental misdial territory. Google's spam detection flagged 0370451957 as spam, and one contributor's phone system marked it the same way. The attempted callback that revealed a disconnected number suggests the original number may have been spoofed or the line was temporary.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 03 7045 1957
If 03 7045 1957 calls you:
- Do not: Answer and engage, especially if you hear silence or a robotic message; return the call to this number; provide personal information like your name, job, employer, or client details
- Do: Let calls go to voicemail; block the number immediately in your phone settings; if you do answer by accident, hang up without speaking; consider reporting to your phone provider that the number is spoofing or misusing the Symbio Networks allocation
- If the caller mentions software, clients, or business details: Treat this as a social engineering attempt and do not continue the conversation, even to correct misinformation

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 03 7045 1957 keep calling me multiple times a day?
Contributors report 03 7045 1957 (0370451957) makes repeated calls in short timeframes - one person received five calls in a single day. This pattern suggests automated dialling or a system designed to catch you when you answer. The disconnected number when one contributor tried calling back indicates the original number may have been spoofed, meaning the Symbio Networks allocation is being misused.
What does a silent call from 0370451957 mean?
Four of the six reports about 0370451957 describe silent or near-silent calls. This tactic is often used to identify whether a number is active and monitored, or to unsettle the recipient. Contributors reported silent voicemails that "felt creepy" and callbacks that revealed disconnected numbers, suggesting this is deliberate harassment rather than a system error.
Should I be concerned about the robocall report from 03 7045 1957?
Yes. One contributor reported answering a call from 03 7045 1957 that began with a robotic message, followed by someone who already had their name, job title, and other personal details. The caller then asked detailed questions about their software and clients. This is a social engineering or information-gathering approach, not typical spam, and suggests a more serious intent than mass telemarketing.
Why is the callback to 0370451957 disconnected?
When one contributor tried to call back 0370451957, the number was disconnected. This is a classic indicator of number spoofing, where callers use a legitimate number (in this case, a Symbio Networks allocation in Victoria) to hide their real identity. The number itself may be real, but the incoming calls are coming from elsewhere and misrepresenting the source.
Is 03 7045 1957 a legitimate Symbio Networks business number?
03 7045 1957 is allocated to Symbio Networks as a local Victorian service number, but the reports suggest it's being misused. The combination of silent calls, attempted callback disconnection, and information-gathering tactics indicates this allocation is either spoofed or Symbio's number is being used without authorisation. If you want to verify, contact Symbio Networks directly using a number you find independently, not by calling back 0370451957.
What should I do if someone from this number asks about my software or clients?
Hang up immediately. One contributor reported someone from 03 7045 1957 asked detailed questions about their software systems and clients after already proving they had personal information. This is a social engineering or corporate espionage tactic. Do not engage, do not provide information to correct any misconceptions, and report the call to ACMA at acma.gov.au and your employer's IT security team if relevant.
