What Our Users Reviewed
Rang a couple of times, didn't bother leaving a message, probably dodgy
Rings every couple of days, line goes dead when I call back, never leaves a message
Tried ringing back and got a disconnected message
Phone alerted this number as suspected spam. Went to voicemail but no message left. Later today similar phone number ending in 66 did exactly the same thing. So I'm definitely blocking. So sick and tired of suss calls.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why would someone call 03 9003 8208 and not leave a message?
Silent or no-message calls from numbers like 0390038208 often indicate automated systems testing whether a number is active and monitored. Spam operators use this technique to identify working numbers for later targeting, or to screen before transferring to a live caller. The contributor's experience of receiving calls from 03 9003 8208 and similar numbers on the same day suggests an automated campaign.
Should I answer if 03 9003 8208 calls again?
No. If 0390038208 has already called and left no message, there's no legitimate reason to answer. Genuine callers - from banks, government services, or businesses you deal with - will leave a message or be identifiable on caller ID. The safest approach is to let 03 9003 8208 go to voicemail and block the number if it calls repeatedly.
What does it mean if similar numbers to 03 9003 8208 are calling?
Sequential or similar numbers calling around the same time (as the contributor experienced with a number ending in 66 calling the same day as 0390038208) often indicates a coordinated spam or scam operation. Operators may rotate through a block of numbers to avoid individual numbers being blocked too quickly. This pattern makes it worth blocking the entire range or reporting to authorities.
Is 03 9003 8208 definitely spam or scam?
Based on the single report, 03 9003 8208 is flagged as suspected spam due to the no-message voicemail pattern and coordinated calling from similar numbers. However, one report means it's not definitively confirmed as a scam. If you receive calls from 0390038208, the safest approach is to treat it as suspicious, block it, and report it if it becomes a repeated nuisance.
How can I stop calls from 03 9003 8208 and similar numbers?
Register your number on the Do Not Call Register (donotcall.gov.au) to reduce unsolicited telemarketing. Block 03 9003 8208 directly in your phone's settings. If you receive repeated calls from 0390038208 or similar numbers, report them to ACMA (acma.gov.au) and Reverseau so others can be warned.
What should I do if 03 9003 8208 leaves a message next time?
Listen carefully to any message left by 0390038208. If it's from a business or service you recognise, you can decide whether to call back. If it's unclear, suspicious, or claims urgent action is needed, do not call back - instead, independently verify the caller by looking up the official phone number on their website or government database. Never use a number provided in the message itself.
