Ever wonder why that same unknown number keeps popping up on your caller ID? It’s usually a telemarketer or automated robocall that’s using a spoofed ID to slip past filters. The best defense is to let the call go to voicemail, then block the number in your phone’s settings or with your carrier’s call‑blocking service. Register your line on the Do Not Call list and report persistent offenders to the ACCC. Never share personal or financial details with callers who hang up or sound suspicious. If the calls keep coming, consider a third‑party blocking app that identifies known scam prefixes and filters them out automatically.
After refusing to disclose my name during the call, I was subjected to verbal abuse
Over the course of a month, I've received six calls from this number, all of which were met with silence when answered, leading me to suspect foul play.

I've been getting these calls for months, and it's realy disrupting the household. My wife's at her wits end.
Yeah, I'm getting calls from this number too. The weird thing is, they're calling my mobile number, which is a silent number. Go figure.
Getting up to five calls a day from this number. Been happening for weeks. I just block the number now. Problem solved. They can keep calling, but my phone just drops the call.
This caller's been calling my number six times today, all within a few hours. I'm in Vistoria, Australia. Getting about two calls an hour. Next time they call, I'll answer and record the conversation.

Had this call a few times. Total waste of time. Hang up and save yourself five minites.
As an Aussie telemarketer, I gotta say, it's a real job, and I'm just trying to pay the bills. Think about the Aussie jobs you're afected with your negativity.
