WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why would someone call and hang up immediately after I answered?
The contributor who received a call from 0400 622 836 experienced this exact scenario. Immediate hang-ups can indicate the caller is testing whether your number is active and monitored by a person - a tactic used before launching a scam campaign or selling verified number lists. It could also be a system error, but repeated calls with the same pattern suggest deliberate behaviour.
Should I be concerned about 0400622836?
Based on the single report for 0400622836, the behaviour is suspicious but limited. One instance of an immediate hang-up isn't conclusive of malicious intent. However, if 0400 622 836 calls you repeatedly with the same pattern, it's worth blocking and reporting.
Is 0400 622 836 a scam number?
The one report we have for 0400 622 836 describes suspicious behaviour (immediate hang-up) rather than a confirmed scam.

What should I do if the same number calls back?
If 0400 622 836 calls you multiple times with the same behaviour, block the number in your phone settings. You can also report it to ACMA at acma.gov.au. Each additional report about 0400622836 helps the community understand whether this is a wider pattern.
Can I trace who owns 0400 622 836?
0400 622 836 is registered as a Telstra mobile number, but the actual person or organisation using 0400622836 may not be the legitimate account holder.

Should I answer calls from unknown numbers like 0400622836?
