Unknown Caller Report for 03 8747 3810
A single contributor has reported receiving a call from 03 8747 3810 (also written as 0387473810) with uncertain intent. The caller asked if the recipient was a specific person by name. When the contributor questioned who was calling, the caller immediately hung up without further explanation.
The number is allocated as a local service in Victoria through Symbio Networks Pty Ltd. Based on the limited report data, the call pattern suggests either misdirected contact, a screening call, or an aborted contact attempt rather than a confirmed scam or spam campaign.
What Happened on the Call
The contributor reported that the caller opened with a name enquiry rather than identifying themselves. This approach is unusual for legitimate business calls, which typically begin with caller identification. The hang-up when questioned indicates the caller may have been verifying number validity, conducting surveys, or attempting to reach someone else.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why did the caller from 03 8747 3810 hang up when I asked who they were?
The contributor's experience suggests the caller may have been verifying if a valid person answered the line, checking if a number was active, or attempting to reach a different person. Legitimate businesses identify themselves upfront, so a hang-up when questioned is a red flag. If 0387473810 calls again with similar behaviour, blocking is appropriate.
Is 03 8747 3810 definitely a scam?
Based on the single report, the intent is uncertain. The call pattern (asking for someone by name, then hanging up) is unusual but not conclusively fraudulent. It could be misdirected contact, a screening call, or an abandoned outreach. However, the reluctance to identify themselves makes it worth blocking. If you receive repeated calls from 0387473810, document them and report to ACMA.
Should I call back the number 03 8747 3810?
No. Do not return calls to unknown numbers, especially those that hung up on you. If the caller had legitimate business with you, they would leave a voicemail or message. Calling back 0387473810 may connect you to a costly service line or trigger more unwanted contact.
How can I block 03 8747 3810 on my phone?
Most Australian mobile phones allow you to block numbers directly in the call history. Find the call from 0387473810, select 'Block' or 'Add to rejected callers', and save. If using a landline, check your phone or service provider's call-blocking options. Symbio Networks may also offer filtering tools through your account.
Can I report this to the Do Not Call Register?
Yes. You can register your phone number at donotcall.gov.au to reduce unwanted marketing calls. If 03 8747 3810 continues calling after you've registered, you can lodge a complaint with ACMA at acma.gov.au about the breach.
What should I do if I get more calls from 0387473810?
Document each call - note the date, time, and what was said. After the second call, block the number. If calls persist or become abusive, report to ACMA (acma.gov.au). You can also contribute your experience to Reverseau so other Australians can see the pattern from 03 8747 3810.
