WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What does it mean if a caller hangs up immediately when I answer?
Immediate hang-ups can indicate several things: the caller may have misdialled, it could be an automated system testing if the number is active, or the caller may have disconnected by accident. The contributor who reported 03 9022 1896 experienced this exact scenario. While a single hang-up isn't necessarily malicious, repeated calls with the same behaviour warrant blocking the number.
Should I try calling back a number that hung up on me?
Generally, no. If 03 9022 1896 or any unknown number hangs up on you, attempting a callback can confirm your number is active to scammers or spam operations. In this case, the contributor who tried calling back to 0390221896 received no answer, which is typical for probe calls or misdials.
