Silent Voicemail Reports for 04 6877 4146
One contributor has reported receiving calls from 04 6877 4146 (also written as 0468774146) that consistently leave voicemail messages with no one on the line. The caller leaves behind only silence, a pattern commonly associated with nuisance calling or automated systems testing active numbers.
The number is allocated as a mobile service through Optus Mobile Pty Limited, though the lack of additional reports makes it difficult to determine whether this is a widespread issue or isolated activity.
What Callers from 04 6877 4146 Do
The contributor's experience with 0468774146 involves repeated calls that connect to voicemail but produce no audible response or message. This silent voicemail pattern differs from typical telemarketing or scam calls, which usually include a recorded message or live person attempting engagement.
Silent calls to voicemail can indicate several possibilities: a callback scam attempting to trigger a return call (which may incur charges on premium numbers), an automated system verifying that a number is active, or a malfunctioning dialler.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 04 6877 4146
If 04 6877 4146 calls you:
- Do not: Return the call to an unknown number, especially if it's left only silence on voicemail
- Do: Block the number if calls continue, let them go to voicemail rather than answering directly
- Do: Save the voicemail as evidence if reporting the activity
Returning a call to 0468774146 based on a silent voicemail is unnecessary and may be exactly what the caller wants if this is a callback scam technique.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 04 6877 4146 leave silent voicemail messages?
The contributor's experience with 0468774146 shows the caller leaves no audible response on voicemail. Silent calls often occur when an automated dialling system reaches a voicemail system instead of a live person, or in callback scams designed to trigger return calls. Without additional reports, it's unclear which scenario applies to 04 6877 4146.
Should I return a call to 0468774146?
No. Never return a call based on a silent voicemail from an unknown number like 04 6877 4146. If the call was important, the caller would leave a message. Returning the call may confirm your number is active or incur charges if it's a premium number.
Is 04 6877 4146 a scam or just a nuisance?
Based on the single report, 0468774146 has been categorised as a nuisance call rather than a confirmed scam. However, silent calls can be part of callback scam techniques or robocalling verification. If you receive repeated calls from 04 6877 4146, treat it as nuisance activity and block it.
Can I block 04 6877 4146 on my phone?
Yes. Most Australian mobile phones allow you to block individual numbers. On most devices, open your call history, find the call from 0468774146, and select 'Block' or 'Add to Block List'. This will prevent future calls from 04 6877 4146 from reaching you.
What should I do if 0468774146 calls multiple times a day?
If 04 6877 4146 calls repeatedly, block it immediately and report it to ACMA (acma.gov.au). Document the dates and times of calls from 0468774146 in case you need to report the pattern. You can also report nuisance calls to the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au.
Why is 04 6877 4146 an Optus mobile number if it leaves silent calls?
04 6877 4146 is allocated as a mobile service through Optus, but this doesn't indicate the caller's intent. The number could be spoofed, misused, or part of a legitimate customer's compromised account. Report the activity to Optus directly if you believe the number has been compromised.
