WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why am I receiving calls from 07 4516 0330 if I haven't called them?
The contributor who reported 0745160330 received missed calls as part of what appears to be a coordinated campaign using multiple Symbio Networks numbers across different states. Scammers sometimes use missed call tactics to prompt recipients to call back, incurring charges or exposing them to further scam attempts. Do not return calls to 07 4516 0330.
Is Symbio Networks Pty Ltd involved in the scam?
The contributor's research indicates Symbio Networks (the service provider for 07 4516 0330) has been warned by the ACMA for inadequate investigation of scam calls and failure to share information about numbers used in alleged scam activity. However, individual subscribers using Symbio lines may be responsible for the actual scam calls. The pattern of missed calls from four Symbio numbers within two days suggests coordinated misuse of the service.
What should I do if 07 4516 0330 keeps calling me?
If 0745160330 continues to call: block the number immediately on your phone, do not answer or return any calls, keep a record of the dates and times of calls, and report the activity to Scamwatch (scamwatch.gov.au) and ACMA (acma.gov.au). If calls escalate or you experience harassment, contact your phone provider or local police.
Could the missed calls from 07 4516 0330 be a legitimate business trying to reach me?
It's unlikely. Legitimate businesses typically leave voicemails or send SMS notifications if they need to reach you. The contributor's discovery of ACMA warnings specific to Symbio Networks' failure to investigate scam calls, combined with the pattern of four missed calls from different Symbio numbers in two days, strongly suggests scam activity rather than accidental contact attempts.
Why doesn't Symbio Networks have a simple way to report a number as scam?
The contributor noted that while Symbio Networks has a page encouraging people to report scams with a link to ScamWatch, they don't provide a direct method for customers to report to Symbio itself that a number they service is being used for scams. This lack of direct feedback mechanism to the provider may explain the ACMA's warnings about Symbio's failure to adequately investigate scam calls serviced on their network, including 0745160330.
Should I report this to ACMA even though it's just a missed call from 07 4516 0330?
Yes. Reporting missed calls from 0745160330 to ACMA (acma.gov.au) strengthens the regulatory record, especially given that Symbio Networks has already been warned by ACMA for inadequate scam investigation procedures. Each report contributes to evidence of systemic provider failure and helps ACMA take stronger action against both the scammers and the service provider enabling their activity.
