03 7068 7881 (0370687881): 17 community reports flag persistent unwanted calls with hang-ups, missed calls, and one survey scam claiming $1,000 prize.
Suspicious Call Reports for 03 7068 7881
Community reports for 03 7068 7881 (also written as 0370687881) reveal a pattern of persistent unwanted calls that has been ongoing since mid-2024. The 17 reports indicate a mix of unanswered calls, hang-ups when answered, and at least one fraudulent survey claiming a cash prize. Contributors consistently describe the number as suspicious, with several noting the number returns "not in service" when called back.
This is a local service number allocated to Victoria through Symbio Networks Pty Ltd. The pattern of behaviour suggests either a spoofed number, a service attempting to reach people who may not want contact, or a deliberate scam operation.
What Callers from 03 7068 7881 Do
The most concerning report about 0370687881 involved a caller claiming to conduct a government survey about cost of living, offering a $1,000 prize to participants. The caller asked a single question then immediately hung up, a classic bait-and-switch tactic designed to seem legitimate initially but disappear before any actual payout discussion occurs.
Beyond that specific incident, the pattern from 03 7068 7881 is mostly silent or hang-up calls. Multiple contributors report answering the call only to hear silence or the line going dead. Several attempts to call the number back have resulted in a "number not in service" message, suggesting the number is either being spoofed or is not a genuine active service line.
One contributor specifically noted the caller claimed to be conducting a government survey, which is a common scam tactic. Another report mentioned uncertainty about whether the repeated calls were part of a scam or a survey, but the $1,000 prize offer is a red flag for a fraudulent scheme.
Call Patterns and Timing
Reports about 03 7068 7881 span from August 2024 through March 2026, indicating this has been an active problem for at least 18 months. Contributors describe receiving multiple calls per month from similar numbers, with one report noting a call close to 7 pm with no voicemail left. Another contributor reported receiving calls "still going on" recently, confirming ongoing activity.
The pattern suggests either automated calling (robocall or predictive dialler) or a manually operated scam that targets multiple people. The fact that callers hang up when answered, combined with the "number not in service" response when called back, strongly indicates the number is being spoofed or misused.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 03 7068 7881

- Do not: Answer or engage with the caller, offer any personal information, press any buttons to "remove from list", or call the number back

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Is 03 7068 7881 a real number or spoofed?
Multiple contributors report that calling 0370687881 back results in a "number not in service" message, which is a major red flag. This suggests the number is either spoofed, temporarily inactive, or being misused. Real service numbers typically remain active and dialable. The pattern of hang-ups and missed calls without voicemails is consistent with either automated spoofing or a scam operation using a fake number.
What was the $1,000 prize offer from 03 7068 7881?
One contributor reported that a caller from 0370687881 claimed to be conducting a government survey about cost of living and offered a $1,000 prize for participation. The caller asked a single question then immediately hung up. This is a classic scam tactic - the offer sounds legitimate initially but disappears before any actual payout. No legitimate government survey offers cash prizes for answering one question.
Should I call 0370687881 back if I missed the call?
No. Do not call 03 7068 7881 back. Numerous contributors have reported that calling the number back results in "number not in service," which wastes your time and may trigger additional unwanted calls if you leave a voicemail. If it was important, they will leave a message. Calling back unknown numbers is a known scam trigger for callback fraud.
Why do callers from 03 7068 7881 hang up when I answer?
Several contributors report answering calls from 0370687881 only to hear silence or the line going dead. This is typically a sign of either automated calling systems testing which numbers are active, or scammers screening calls. Responding to the call confirms your number is monitored, which may lead to more calls. The hang-up pattern combined with the spoofed number issue suggests this is not a legitimate service.
How long has 03 7068 7881 been making unwanted calls?
Reports about calls from 0370687881 span from August 2024 to March 2026 - at least 18 months of continuous activity. One recent report from March 2026 states the calls are "still going on," confirming the number remains active. Another contributor reported receiving multiple calls from this number each month, suggesting a persistent operation rather than a one-time issue.
What should I do if 0370687881 keeps calling after I block it?
If 03 7068 7881 continues calling after you block the number, it may indicate spoofing or multiple similar numbers being used. Report each new number to ACMA (acma.gov.au), Scamwatch (scamwatch.gov.au), and your phone provider. Enable spam protection features in your phone settings - Samsung users can activate "Caller ID and spam protection" which one contributor confirmed successfully blocks suspected spam calls from 0370687881 and similar numbers.
