Suspicious Activity Reports for 0480 829 150

Two contributors have flagged 0480 829 150 (also written as 0480829150) for suspicious calling behaviour. Both reports centre on a critical red flag: the number appears to be either disconnected or deliberately non-functional, yet callers continue to use it to contact people.

This pattern is characteristic of scam operations that use invalid or deactivated numbers to avoid being called back or traced. The number is registered as a mobile service through Pivotel Satellite, though the allocation alone does not confirm legitimacy given the reported disconnection status.

What Contributors Experienced with 0480 829 150

One contributor answered a call from 0480 829 150 and immediately identified the number as "not even in service", describing it as "another bloody scam". This suggests the caller was actively using a non-functional number, which is a deliberate tactic to prevent verification or callback attempts.

A second contributor received multiple missed calls from 0480829150 over the course of a week. When attempting to call back to identify the caller, the number came back as disconnected. This behaviour pattern - repeated calls from a number that cannot receive return calls - is a common scam indicator.

Call Patterns and Timing

The two reports span a week in mid-to-late September 2026. One call was answered directly, while the other resulted in missed calls on multiple occasions. The repeated contact attempts despite the number's non-functional status suggests automated or semi-automated dialling rather than legitimate business outreach.

Neither contributor provided details about what the caller claimed or requested, focusing instead on the technical anomaly of the disconnected number being used for outbound calls.
