Four contributors have reported activity from 04 8395 2963 (also written as 0483952963), flagging a pattern of mixed scam tactics, suspicious behaviour, and nuisance calls. The Optus mobile number has been linked to aggressive sales pitches, fraudulent payment claims, and silent calls that disconnect when answering machines activate. Each report describes different concerning approaches, suggesting either multiple actors using the same number or a rotating set of tactics from a single operation.

The reports span from November 2023 to January 2026, indicating sustained problematic activity. Contributors who received calls from 0483952963 noted they did not disclose personal or financial information, but the diversity of tactics suggests this number warrants careful scrutiny.

What Callers from 04 8395 2963 Say and Do

Community reports about 04 8395 2963 describe several distinct approaches. One contributor received an offer for discounted basketball tickets on the Gold Coast at an unrealistic price point, described as having a "dodgy sales pitch." This contributor recognised the offer as too good to be true and did not proceed.

Another report mentions a caller claiming to represent payment processors, referencing a suspicious $1,399 charge from Visa or Mastercard. The caller created urgency around the supposed transaction, but the contributor found the approach suspicious and withheld their information. A third report documents the caller hanging up when an answering machine began recording, a common silent call tactic. A fourth contributor reported the caller's behaviour as "highly inappropriate" but did not provide further detail about the interaction with 0483952963.
