Silent Calls and Nuisance Patterns for 08 6289 1015

Seven contributors have reported activity from 08 6289 1015 (also written as 0862891015), with the dominant pattern being silent or hang-up calls. The number is allocated to Netslip Pty Ltd, a Western Australian local service provider. Multiple reports indicate that calls from 0862891015 connect briefly then disconnect without leaving voicemail, a behaviour often associated with callback verification scams or automated dialling systems testing active numbers.

Contributors describe the calling pattern as repeated and deliberate rather than accidental. One person noted the calls would ring then immediately hang up, describing it as "playing hide and seek." Another reported that the number kept ringing but hung up as soon as they ignored it, suggesting the caller may be tracking whether the line is being actively monitored.

What Callers from 08 6289 1015 Do

The most common behaviour reported is silent connection followed by instant disconnection. Three separate reports describe calls from 08 6289 1015 that ring through but hang up without any attempt at conversation or voicemail. One contributor received a call that didn't even trigger their phone's normal ringing pattern, suggesting potential spoofing or technical manipulation of caller ID.

A secondary pattern involves a caller identifying as "Mark" from 0862891015 who contacted a contributor about solar rebates. This single report stands out as the only instance where someone actually spoke, though the solar rebate topic is a recognised spam opener used to build contact lists.

One contributor flagged concerns about the provider itself, noting that Netslip Pty Ltd has a history of "dodgy past" and has "let scam calls through before," suggesting the number may be compromised or used by bad actors exploiting the provider's infrastructure.

Call Patterns and Timing

Reports for 08 6289 1015 span from late January through mid-February 2026. The calls occur across various times of day, including early morning (01:24 AM) and business hours (11:52 AM), indicating this is not a 9-to-5 operation.

One contributor received multiple calls from this number over several days, each time following the same hang-up pattern. Another had a call that registered as missed without the normal phone notification, suggesting potential technical manipulation of the calling method.

What to Do If You Receive a Call from 08 6289 1015

Silent calls and hang-ups are often used to identify active phone numbers for later targeting by scammers or to verify whether a number is monitored. If 08 6289 1015 calls you:

• Do not: Return the call, answer if the caller ID looks suspicious, or provide any information if someone does connect
• Do: Let it go to voicemail, block the number immediately after the first call, and mark it as spam in your phone's settings
• Consider: If calls persist, register your number with the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au to formally lodge a complaint

If the number appears on your phone's call history but you don't remember it ringing, your phone may have been targeted by a spoofed caller ID or robocall system. Blocking 0862891015 will prevent further calls from this specific number.
