Nuisance Call Reports for 0401 355 788
A contributor has reported repeated calls from 0401 355 788 (also written as 0401355788), an Optus mobile number. The calls are persistent and follow no apparent pattern, with the caller never leaving a voicemail message. One call came through at 11pm, suggesting the caller is willing to contact at unsociable hours.
The lack of voicemail is notable - callers who have a legitimate reason to reach you typically leave a message on the first attempt. The pattern of multiple calls without any message suggests either an automated system cycling through numbers, or someone deliberately avoiding communication trails.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 0401 355 788 keep calling but never leave a message?
The contributor reporting 0401355788 experienced this exact pattern. Callers who deliberately avoid leaving messages may be testing whether numbers are active, or they may hang up because they're using an automated dialling system that disconnects before voicemail kicks in. Either way, the behaviour is suspicious - legitimate callers leave messages.
Is it dangerous to answer calls from 0401355788?
The single report of 0401 355 788 describes nuisance behaviour rather than a scam attempt. However, answering unknown numbers gives callers confirmation that your number is active and monitored, which can lead to more calls. Letting it go to voicemail is safer.
Should I be worried about an 11pm call from 0401 355 788?
Calls at 11pm from 0401355788 suggest either a wrong number (less likely given the repeated pattern) or intentional harassment. Legitimate businesses respect calling hours - the fact that this number called so late without leaving a message is a red flag for nuisance calling.
Can I block 0401 355 788 permanently?
Yes. On most phones, open your call log, find 0401355788, and select 'Block' or 'Block caller'. This will send all calls from 0401 355 788 straight to voicemail. You can unblock later if needed.
What information should I give the Do Not Call Register about 0401355788?
When reporting at donotcall.gov.au, provide the phone number (0401 355 788 or 0401355788), the date and time of the most recent call, and a brief description: 'Repeated nuisance calls at unsociable hours, no message left.' This helps the Register identify patterns of abuse.
Is 0401 355 788 a scam or just annoying?
Based on the community report, 0401355788 appears to be nuisance calling rather than an active scam. However, nuisance calls can sometimes escalate - if the caller ever asks for money, personal details, or claims a debt, the behaviour becomes a scam. Document everything and report immediately if it changes.
