WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why is 08 6255 9839 calling me without leaving a message?
Two contributors reported receiving calls from 08 6255 9839 where the caller hung up immediately after the contributor answered. This is common in large-scale spam campaigns where callers use automated diallers to test whether phone numbers are active. Once a number is confirmed as answered, it may be added to a priority list for future spam attempts. Blocking 0862559839 after the first unwanted call can reduce the likelihood of repeated contact.
Is 08 6255 9839 a real Samsung number?
No. One contributor received a call from 08 6255 9839 claiming to represent Samsung, but this was unverified. To contact Samsung directly, always use the official phone number on Samsung's Australian website or on your device documentation, never a number from an unsolicited call. If 0862559839 calls claiming to be Samsung, hang up and call Samsung independently to verify.
What is a call centre operation and why does it matter?
When a contributor called back 08 6255 9839 to investigate, they identified a call centre environment rather than a direct line. This indicates 0862559839 is a shared outbound dialling number used by a business or campaign operation to make multiple calls. Call centres used for spam typically employ high-volume dialling with minimal quality control, and they often rotate through different outbound numbers to avoid blocking.
Should I call 08 6255 9839 back to see who it is?
No. Calling back 0862559839 may: trigger additional unwanted calls as it confirms your number is active, connect you to a call centre that attempts to sell or extract information, or incur charges if the number has premium routing. Instead, block the number and let any future calls go to voicemail.
How do I block 08 6255 9839 on my phone?
Most Australian phones allow you to block numbers directly from the call log.

Should I report this to ACMA or Scamwatch?
