Silent Call Reports for 03 9003 4818
Contributors have reported six incidents involving calls from 03 9003 4818 (also written as 0390034818), with a pattern of silent calls where no one speaks on the other end. Three separate reports describe answering calls from 03 9003 4818 to find complete silence before the caller disconnects after approximately 5 seconds. Additional reports from 0390034818 show missed calls and voicemails with no message, suggesting either automated systems or intentional silent call tactics.
The consistency of this pattern across multiple reports indicates this is not a one-off misdial. Each contributor who answered calls from 03 9003 4818 experienced the same behaviour: immediate dead air followed by a quick hang-up, with no explanation or callback message.
What Reports Indicate About 03 9003 4818
Silent calls from 0390034818 typically indicate one of three scenarios: robocall systems testing line validity, callback scam operations verifying active numbers, or telemarketing screening. The fact that callers hang up so quickly after connection suggests automated calling systems rather than live operators. When a number like 03 9003 4818 calls and immediately disconnects upon answer, the caller's primary goal may be confirming your number is active and monitored by a real person.
Contributors reported calls to both answered lines and voicemail, with 03 9003 4818 leaving no message in either case. This behaviour is characteristic of systems that move quickly through call lists without intention to communicate verbally.
Report Patterns and Timing
The six reports for 03 9003 4818 span approximately three weeks in February and March 2026. Calls came through both answered lines and missed calls, with timing spread across different hours (early morning around 3:44 AM, mid-morning around 9:19 AM, and late morning around 11:53 AM). Three reports explicitly mention answered calls where contributors heard silence, while three additional reports involve unanswered calls or voicemail with no message left.
One contributor received a call from 0390034818 at 3:44 AM and answered to find dead air, describing the experience as the caller hanging up after 5 seconds. Another contributor from 9:19 AM reported identical silent call behaviour from 03 9003 4818. The variety of times suggests either a wide-reaching automated system or multiple attempts to reach this contributor.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 03 9003 4818
Silent calls can be frustrating and concerning. If 03 9003 4818 calls you:
- Do not: Answer and stay on the line trying to prompt a response, or return the call if a number appears on your missed calls list
- Do: Let the call go to voicemail if possible, or hang up immediately after confirming silence on the line
- Block the number: If 0390034818 calls repeatedly, add it to your blocked contacts to prevent future disruption
- Verify if you were expecting contact: If you initiated contact with an organisation recently, check their official website for callback numbers to confirm legitimacy before returning any call
Silent calls are often generated by automated systems that are either testing line validity for later scam operations or attempting callback scam tactics. Do not engage further with 03 9003 4818 if you receive additional calls.
Silent Calls and Callback Scam Risk
When you answer a call from 03 9003 4818 and hear silence before the caller hangs up, there is a risk this number may be part of a callback scam operation. These systems confirm your number is active and answered by a real person, then later contact you from a different number claiming urgency (tax debt, parcel held, account compromised). By answering and remaining on the line, you may have confirmed your number for future scam attempts. The silent call phase is simply information gathering.
If you receive repeated calls from 0390034818 with silent responses, it is unlikely to be innocent misdials. Block the number to prevent further attempts.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why would someone call and say nothing when I answer 03 9003 4818?
Silent calls from 03 9003 4818 are typically generated by automated systems, not live callers with a message. These systems often test whether a number is active and answered by a real person. If the line connects and you answer, the automated system confirms this information and disconnects. This data is sometimes sold to scam operations or used for callback scams later. Hanging up immediately is the best response.
Is 0390034818 dangerous if they only call silently?
Silent calls from 0390034818 themselves are not immediately dangerous, but they often indicate your number has been flagged as active and monitored by a person. This makes your number more valuable to scammers, who may contact you later from different numbers with urgent claims. Contributors who answered 03 9003 4818 and heard silence should monitor for follow-up calls from other numbers claiming tax issues, parcel holds, or account problems.
Should I return a call to 03 9003 4818 if I see it on my missed calls?
No, do not return calls to 0390034818. Returning a silent call confirms your number is monitored and active, which is exactly what automated systems are trying to establish. If you did not initiate contact with a legitimate organisation, there is no reason to call 03 9003 4818 back. If you were expecting a callback, verify the number through the organisation's official website first.
Could 03 9003 4818 be a legitimate business calling by mistake?
Unlikely. Legitimate businesses and organisations do not call and hang up silently without leaving a voicemail. If a real business needed to reach you, they would leave a message explaining the purpose of their call. The pattern of silent calls from 0390034818 across multiple reports, with no message left despite reaching answering machines, indicates automated calling systems rather than genuine misdials. Block the number to prevent further calls.
What is a callback scam and how does 03 9003 4818 fit?
Callback scams work in two phases. Phase one (which may involve 03 9003 4818): an automated system calls your number, stays silent, then hangs up to confirm your line is active and monitored by a real person. Phase two happens days or weeks later when scammers call from a different number claiming urgency-unpaid tax debt, customs-held parcel, compromised bank account. They rely on you having answered a previous call (like the silent one from 0390034818) to seem credible. Block 03 9003 4818 and hang up immediately on any later urgent-sounding calls from unknown numbers.
How many people have reported 0390034818?
Six contributors have reported calls from 0390034818. Three specifically received answered calls with silence, while three had missed calls or voicemail with no message. The consistent pattern of silent calls across six separate incidents over three weeks suggests this number is actively making silent calls to multiple people. If you receive calls from 03 9003 4818, add your report to the community data on Reverseau to help others identify this number.
