Repeated Calls and Impersonation Reports for 0489 952 562

Six contributors have reported activity from 0489 952 562 (also written as 0489952562), with patterns suggesting coordinated calling behaviour and identity misrepresentation. The most distinctive reports involve aggressive auto-dialling with multiple rapid call-backs, combined with callers claiming false identities. One contributor received 4 consecutive declined calls followed by immediate call-backs, indicating possible robocall technology. Another report describes a caller claiming to be "Imogen" from an unnamed company, with matching voicemail and email on file, suggesting deliberate impersonation.

The service is allocated to a satellite mobile provider, though this allocation may not reflect the actual source of the calls. Contributors have blocked 0489 952 562 after negative interactions, and the pattern of hang-ups when questioned suggests awareness of scrutiny.

What Callers from 0489 952 562 Say and Do

When contributors have engaged with calls from 0489 952 562, the interactions have been brief and evasive. One caller identified himself as "James" from a marketing company and became aggressive when told the call was unwanted, talking over the contributor's objections. Another caller claiming to be "Imogen" hung up immediately when the contributor answered, despite having left a voicemail introducing herself. When directly questioned about their company affiliation, one caller hung up without responding.

The most notable pattern involves the auto-dialling behaviour. A contributor who declined a call from 0489 952 562 reported the number immediately called back multiple times in succession. When the contributor finally let the call ring through without answering, it eventually stopped. This escalation tactic - repeated calls following rejection - suggests either an automated system triggering on declined calls or manual persistence designed to wear down resistance.

Report Patterns and Timing

The six reports span from July 2024 to June 2026, with the most recent and detailed reports coming in June 2026. The most recent contributor reported the repeated auto-dialling behaviour within days of receiving the number, while earlier reports from 2024 describe more generic marketing and nuisance activity. Three contributors who answered the call from 0489 952 562 reported hang-ups when pressed for information, suggesting the caller becomes evasive under questioning. Two contributors chose to answer, two declined and experienced repeated call-backs, and one let it ring through without picking up.

What to Do If You Receive a Call from 0489 952 562

If 0489 952 562 calls you:

  • Do not: Answer if you don't recognise the number, return the call, or engage if the caller becomes evasive or aggressive
  • Do: Let repeated calls go to voicemail, block the number immediately after the first call, and do not decline calls (as this may trigger immediate call-backs)
  • Do verify: If a caller claims to represent a specific company, hang up and call that organisation directly using a number from their official website
  • Do report: If the caller claims to be from a government agency, report to the relevant agency directly rather than engaging further

Seems to be using autodial technology. I declined the call 4 times and it immediately started calling back. I turned my phone sound off and let it call through, and it eventually stopped.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if 0489 952 562 keeps calling back after I decline?

One contributor reported that declining calls from 0489 952 562 triggered immediate call-backs. Instead of declining, let the call ring through to voicemail, then block the number. Do not engage by answering or declining repeatedly, as this may escalate the calling pattern.

Why did the caller from 0489952562 hang up when I asked what company they were from?

Multiple contributors reported that callers from 0489 952 562 hung up when asked to identify their company or repeat information. This evasiveness is a red flag - legitimate callers can confidently provide company details. If a caller is evasive about their identity, this supports blocking the number.

Is 0489 952 562 actually a legitimate business number?

0489 952 562 is registered to a satellite mobile provider, but this does not indicate legitimacy. Contributors report the number is being used for aggressive marketing, impersonation, and auto-dialling tactics. The pattern of hang-ups and repeated call-backs suggests the number is being misused rather than operated by its registered provider.

What is the auto-dialling technology mentioned in reports about 0489952562?

One contributor reported that after declining a call from 0489 952 562, the number immediately called back multiple times in rapid succession. This automated repeated calling pattern suggests robocall or auto-dialler technology, which is illegal in Australia unless the caller has prior consent. Report this to ACMA at acma.gov.au.

Should I answer calls from 0489 952 562 to find out who is calling?

No. Based on contributor reports, answering calls from 0489 952 562 results in hang-ups, evasive responses, or aggressive behaviour. It is safer to let the call go to voicemail, listen to any message left, verify the caller's identity through official channels independently, and then block the number.

How do I block 0489 952 562 on my phone?

On most Australian mobile phones, you can block 0489 952 562 by: (1) finding the number in your call history or recent calls, (2) selecting the option to block or add to blacklist, or (3) using your phone's built-in call blocking app. Additionally, contact your mobile provider to ask if they offer call filtering services that can block numbers like 0489 952 562 before they reach you.
