Community report for 04 7069 5422 (0470695422): Contributor received six calls within two hours with no voicemails left.
Repeated Calls from 04 7069 5422
A contributor has reported receiving six calls within a two-hour period from 04 7069 5422 (also written as 0470695422). None of the calls left voicemails, and when the recipient attempted to ring back, someone was audible in the background saying "that's him ringing now" - but the caller did not speak to them directly.
This pattern of multiple rapid calls without leaving messages is often associated with either callback scams, automated dialling systems testing for active numbers, or potential telemarketing campaigns. The background comment suggests the caller may have been aware the number was being called back, which is unusual behaviour.
Call Pattern Details for 0470695422
The six calls arrived in quick succession within a two-hour window, with no attempt to leave a message on any of them. This clustering is distinct from random telemarketing, which typically spreads calls over days or weeks. The fact that someone responded when the recipient rang back (albeit without speaking) indicates the number was active and monitored.
The contributor's observation about the background voice is notable - it suggests the calling side may have been tracking when their number was being contacted, or multiple people were involved in the campaign.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why would someone call six times in two hours without leaving a message?
Repeated calls without voicemails can indicate several things: automated systems testing if your number is active (often used by scammers to build lists of working numbers), callback scams where they're waiting for you to ring back, or aggressive telemarketing. The background comment in this case suggests 04 7069 5422 may have been monitoring when callers attempted to ring back, which is unusual behaviour for legitimate businesses.
Should I ring back 04 7069 5422 if I miss the call?
No. Never ring back a number that calls repeatedly without leaving a message. Callback scams specifically rely on recipients ringing back. If you need to verify who called, use an official contact number from the organisation's website - never use a number provided by the caller or shown in your call log. In this case, when the contributor did ring back 0470695422, someone was present but did not speak, which is a warning sign.
What does it mean when someone says 'that's him ringing now' in the background?
This suggests the person answering 04 7069 5422 was aware that someone was attempting to call them back. This could indicate the calling campaign has systems tracking when recipients return calls, or that multiple callers are coordinating. Either way, it's unusual behaviour for legitimate customer service and is a red flag to stop engaging with the number.
Is 04 7069 5422 a real mobile number?
04 7069 5422 (0470695422) is allocated to Lycamobile, an Australian mobile provider. However, legitimate Lycamobile customers' numbers can be spoofed or sold, so allocation to a provider doesn't guarantee legitimacy. The repeated calling pattern without voicemails is the real concern, not the provider itself.
What should I do if 04 7069 5422 keeps calling?
Block the number in your phone settings immediately. Most smartphones allow you to automatically send calls from specific numbers to voicemail or reject them. You can also lodge a complaint with the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au if the calls continue after blocking. If you believe it's a scam, report 0470695422 to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au and to ACMA at acma.gov.au.
Can I report this number to my phone provider?
Yes. Contact Lycamobile (the provider for 04 7069 5422) directly and report the harassing calls. You can also file a formal complaint with ACMA at acma.gov.au, which oversees telecommunications providers and can investigate patterns of misuse. Additionally, contributing a report on Reverseau helps other Australians recognise 0470695422 and similar suspicious activity.
