04 8138 7939 (0481387939): 12 reports of persistent missed calls with no voicemail, some robocall activity, and animal welfare charity fundraising attempts.
Silent and Repeated Calls from 04 8138 7939
Contributors have reported 12 separate incidents involving 04 8138 7939 (also written as 0481387939), with most callers failing to leave any message despite multiple contact attempts. The pattern reveals a mix of behaviour: persistent silent calling, robocall activity, and legitimate charity fundraising by animal welfare organisations.
The dominant issue is repeated calls from 0481387939 that generate missed call notifications but no voicemail or text follow-up. Several contributors noted they blocked the number after receiving multiple calls within short timeframes, with one reporting calls "daily, often twice a day" over a week-long period.
What Callers from 04 8138 7939 Do
One contributor who answered a call from 04 8138 7939 encountered a recorded message stating "they couldn't take the call, they called me" - indicating robocall technology. This aligns with the persistent missed-call pattern reported by others.
Some calls from 0481387939 have originated from legitimate animal welfare organisations conducting fundraising raffles. Two contributors confirmed contact from "Animal Welfare House" seeking donations, with one noting the caller was genuine but the background noise made conversation difficult. One contributor had previously purchased raffle tickets and confirmed the charity contact was legitimate.
The disconnect between legitimate calls and silent/robocall activity suggests 04 8138 7939 may be used by multiple organisations or that call routing issues are affecting delivery.
Call Patterns and Frequency
Contributors report calls from 04 8138 7939 occurring at various times, with one contributor specifically noting calls "several days running, and then sporadically throughout the week." Another reported the number calling "daily, often twice a day" over a seven-day period.
Calls are predominantly missed calls with no message left. When contributors attempted to call back 0481387939, the number "rings out," suggesting either call screening or a non-operational voicemail system. The lack of follow-up messages despite repeated calling attempts is the primary frustration noted across reports.
Six of the 12 reports involved missed calls, four involved answered calls (including the robocall and charity fundraising), and two contributors marked the number as uncertain before blocking it.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 04 8138 7939 keep calling but never leave a message?
One contributor who answered 0481387939 reported hearing a robocall message saying "they couldn't take the call, they called me." This suggests automated dialling with no live operator standing by. Multiple contributors noted the number rings out when they attempt to call back, indicating the caller has no voicemail system or isn't monitored. Some calls from 04 8138 7939 are from legitimate animal welfare charities, but the majority appear to be silent calls with no follow-up.
Is 04 8138 7939 a scam?
Not all calls from 0481387939 are scams. One contributor confirmed the number was from a legitimate animal welfare charity conducting raffle fundraising. However, the pattern of persistent silent calls and robocall activity is consistent with nuisance calling. No contributor reported financial loss, personal information theft, or impersonation, but the repeated calling without messages warrants blocking the number unless you have a specific reason to expect contact from 04 8138 7939.
Should I answer if 04 8138 7939 calls me?
If you don't recognise the number, it's safer to let it go to voicemail. If no message is left after multiple calls from 0481387939, the caller has no legitimate business contacting you. One contributor who did answer 04 8138 7939 encountered a robocall message, so answering provides no additional information and may confirm your number is active to the caller.
How many times has 04 8138 7939 been reported?
There are 12 total reports about 0481387939 on Reverseau. Five reports categorise it as nuisance calling, three as uncertain, two as spam (charity fundraising), one as legitimate, one as suspicious, and one involving a robocall.

What should I do if 04 8138 7939 claims to be from a charity?
Some legitimate animal welfare organisations do call from 0481387939 for raffle fundraising. If the caller identifies themselves, ask them to send written information to your address before committing to any donation or raffle purchase. Verify the charity's name independently by searching their official website or calling their main listed number (not a number from the incoming call). This prevents you from funding operations you haven't properly vetted, even if the caller from 04 8138 7939 is genuine.
