What Callers from 0485 883 056 Say and Do
Two contributors received calls from 0485 883 056 asking specifically for Jason. When they confirmed no one by that name was available, the caller hung up immediately without further explanation. Both contributors described this behaviour as odd, given the abrupt termination once they provided a negative response.
Other reports about 0485883056 describe telemarketing approaches. One contributor reported a woman named Alice claiming to represent Corporate Ink and Toners, with the contributor noting the caller seemed dodgy and untrustworthy. A separate report mentions a similar pitch from someone introducing themselves as Alice from Aussie Ink and Toners. These inconsistent business names (Corporate Ink versus Aussie Ink) from the same number raise suspicion about caller legitimacy.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why do callers from 0485 883 056 keep asking for Jason?
Two contributors reported receiving calls from 0485 883 056 asking specifically for someone named Jason. When they confirmed no one by that name was available, the caller disconnected immediately. This pattern could indicate list-based calling where the caller crosses names off or verifies whether a specific individual is reachable at that number. Without additional engagement, the caller hangs up and moves to the next number.
Is 0485883056 a legitimate business supply company?
Reports describe callers claiming to represent Ink and Toners businesses (names vary as 'Corporate Ink and Toners' and 'Aussie Ink and Toners' in different reports). Contributors described these pitches as suspicious or untrustworthy. The inconsistent business names from the same number 0485883056 are a red flag. If you need office supplies, contact established providers directly using verified contact details rather than responding to unsolicited calls.

Two reports describe the Jason inquiries, three describe telemarketing or suspicious business pitches, one notes a missed call notification, and one contributor mentioned receiving multiple calls from this number and others. This pattern suggests persistent outbound calling activity.
Should I call back a missed call from 0485883056?
No. Do not call back 0485883056 unless you are certain you were expecting a call from a known contact. Community reports indicate this number engages in telemarketing and nuisance calling. Returning the call confirms your number is active and may result in more unwanted contact from this or other numbers used by the same operation.
What should I do if 0485 883 056 keeps calling me?
Block 0485 883 056 on your phone immediately and mark it as spam. Register with the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au to legally opt out of telemarketing calls. If calls continue after blocking and registering, report the number to ACMA at acma.gov.au. Contributors who experienced repeated calls from this and other numbers should document dates and times of each call for reporting purposes.
Is 0485883056 a scam or just annoying spam?
Community reports classify 0485 883 056 primarily as telemarketing and nuisance activity rather than an outright scam attempt. However, one contributor described the ink and toners pitch as suspicious, and the pattern of asking for non-existent individuals is odd. Even if not fraudulent, it is unwanted contact. Block the number and report it to avoid further disruption.
