Mixed Activity Reports for 03 9022 3257
Four contributors have reported activity from 03 9022 3257 (also written as 0390223257), a Victoria-based local service number. The reports reveal a mixed pattern spanning health insurance sales, evening calls that leave no voicemail, and at least one call claiming Icare affiliation. While the volume is modest, the variety of tactics and the caller's reluctance to engage when challenged warrants attention.
What Callers from 03 9022 3257 Say
One contributor received a sales pitch about health insurance from 0390223257, with the caller asking to compare policies. When the contributor expressed disinterest and hung up, the call ended without further contact.
A separate report describes a caller claiming to represent Icare. When the contributor began to decline the call, the caller abruptly hung up rather than continuing the conversation. This pattern of disconnecting when met with resistance differs from typical telemarketing persistence and may indicate the caller was testing whether the number was active or belonged to a genuine contact.
Call Patterns and Timing
The calls from 03 9022 3257 have occurred during evening hours. One contributor noted a call at 8:42 pm that did not include a voicemail message and appeared on their screen as a suspicious caller. Another reported an 8 pm call from someone claiming Icare affiliation, also without a recorded message left behind.
Two additional reports describe received calls where no message was left, and the callers did not persist when the contributor was not immediately responsive. This silence-and-hang-up pattern across multiple reports suggests the caller may be conducting list-validation calls rather than pursuing genuine sales or service interactions.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why did the caller from 03 9022 3257 hang up when I said I wasn't interested?
One contributor reported that a caller claiming to represent Icare disconnected immediately when they began to decline the call. This abrupt hang-up differs from typical sales calls and may indicate the caller was validating whether the number reached an active person rather than pursuing a genuine sales interaction. The quick disconnection when challenged is a red flag and suggests you should block 0390223257 if the number calls again.
Is 03 9022 3257 a legitimate Icare number?
A contributor received a call from 0390223257 claiming to represent Icare, but the caller hung up when challenged. You should not assume any call claiming Icare affiliation is legitimate. If you have a genuine query about Icare services, contact them directly using the official phone number on their website or your statement, not by calling back 03 9022 3257.
What should I do if 03 9022 3257 calls without leaving a message?
Two contributors reported calls from 0390223257 that did not include voicemail messages. Unwanted calls that leave no message are often validation calls checking whether your number is active. Do not return the call. If the number calls repeatedly, block it and consider reporting it to ACMA at acma.gov.au as a potential telemarketing breach.
Is the health insurance pitch from 03 9022 3257 a scam?
One contributor received a health insurance sales call from 0390223257 and described it as someone trying to compare policies. While not necessarily fraudulent, it is unsolicited telemarketing. You can ask to be added to Reverseau's block list, register with the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au, or simply block 03 9022 3257 on your phone to prevent future calls.
Why do the callers from 0390223257 call at night and not leave messages?
Contributors reported calls from 03 9022 3257 at 8 pm and 8:42 pm without voicemail. Evening calling times combined with no message left suggests these may be automated or list-validation calls rather than genuine sales or service interactions. The pattern of silence and disconnection is consistent with call-list testing, not legitimate customer contact.
