Two contributors have reported activity from 03 9003 1120 (also written as 0390031120) involving silent calls and suspicious contact attempts.

What Contributors Experienced with 03 9003 1120

One contributor who answered a call from 03 9003 1120 reported that after saying hello, the caller kept the line open but did not respond. No engagement occurred, and the contributor was left hanging on the line. This type of silent call behaviour is a known tactic to identify active numbers.

A separate report described a call from 0390031120 that came through as "Unknown." The caller was a female with an accent whose voice sounded very distant with noticeable echo. When the contributor answered, the caller asked "can you hear me?" The contributor found the quality and circumstances suspicious and hung up immediately, then blocked the number.

Report Patterns

Both calls to 03 9003 1120 occurred outside typical business hours. One came through early morning (04:14 on 24 February), while the other arrived late evening (00:47 on 24 March). Both contributors answered the calls, and neither experienced aggressive demands or follow-up contact attempts.

The audio quality issues and the testing nature of the contact (asking "can you hear me?") suggest these may be probing calls rather than active scams. However, contributors should remain cautious as silent calls are frequently used to validate phone numbers for later malicious campaigns.

What to Do If You Receive a Call from 03 9003 1120

If 03 9003 1120 calls you:

• Do not: Stay on the line with a silent caller, provide any information, or return a missed call from this number
