Scam and Spam Reports for 03 9968 0893

Four contributors have reported calls from 03 9968 0893 (also written as 0399680893), a local Victorian number allocated to NetSIP Pty Ltd. The reports indicate a pattern of unwanted contact combining deceptive tactics with aggressive sales approaches. Two reports mention scam activity involving personal information requests and false promises, while additional calls targeted business owners with unsolicited website marketing pitches.

The variety of tactics suggests this number may be used by multiple callers or campaigns. One contributor received a robocall that hung up immediately after playing a pre-recorded message about energy savings, while others describe live callers using social engineering to extract personal details or arrange business consultations.

What Callers from 03 9968 0893 Say

One contributor reported receiving a call offering "the best deal" but the conversation quickly shifted to requests for personal information, a classic bait-and-switch tactic. The caller did not clarify what service or product the "deal" involved, suggesting the primary goal was data harvesting rather than legitimate sales.

Two separate reports describe calls from someone claiming to represent a website marketing or design service. The callers specifically asked to speak to the "owner" about website services and marketing opportunities. Contributors described the approach as pushy and noted that they had made clear they had no need for website services. One contributor characterised the call as "a bit off," indicating recognisable signs of social engineering or pressure tactics.

A fourth report documented a robocall from 0399680893 that immediately disconnected when answered, leaving only a robotic voicemail thanking the recipient for "contacting energy savers." This suggests the call was either misdirected or intentionally designed to create callback requests to an unrelated service.

Report Patterns and Timing

All four calls to 03 9968 0893 were answered directly by recipients, indicating the callers were reaching through. The reports span from late October through early December 2025, with no clustering that suggests automated dialling campaigns, though the robocall on 12 October represents a distinct incident type.

Three of the four reports came during business hours or early morning (8 AM to 10 AM), consistent with telemarketing or business-to-business outreach. The robocall occurred at 9:59 AM on a weekday, typical timing for automated campaigns targeting business lines.

What to Do If You Receive a Call from 03 9968 0893

If 03 9968 0893 calls you:

• Do not: Share personal information, agree to callbacks, or provide business details if you don't recognise the caller
• Do: Ask the caller to identify their company and purpose before responding, then hang up if the answer is unclear or unsolicited
• Do: Block the number on your phone if calls are repeated
• Do: Be wary of offers that seem too good to be true or calls asking you to "verify" information you've already provided

If the caller mentions energy services, website design, or marketing but you didn't initiate contact, this is a strong signal to disconnect. Legitimate businesses rarely cold-call requesting personal information or immediate business decisions.
