Australia: what to expect from calls
Unsure about an Australian number? Find fresh community reports to judge unknown calls or texts. Cities like Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide show both legitimate callbacks (delivery, banking, appointments) and waves of phishing. Area codes (02, 03, 07, 08) are not reliable for location due to portability/VoIP — treat them as signal, not proof.
Good practice: return calls only via the official number on the provider’s site/app, check in‑app messages, and don’t share one‑time codes by phone. Enable device blocks and carrier filters (Telstra, Optus, Vodafone) and leave a short, factual experience here to help others.

Voice mail recorded in Mandarin
A scammer claiming to be PayPal was on the line; I blew a loud whistle into his ear over the phone. Forget him!
An incoming call from an unknown number went to voicemail; no message was left.
Every couple of days they ring; I either hang up before picking up or they drop the call the moment I answer.
They call twice daily, even on weekends, so I decided to block the number.
Someone kept inquiring about my deceased husband—extremely irritating.
Repeated calls
I couldn't remove them from the call list, so I blocked the number.
The number repeatedly rings my home and mobile, then disconnects!
I receive calls from this number up to three times daily, both on my landline and mobile. Please stop calling my landline; it's for my use, not to be bothered.
It just keeps ringing without ever leaving a voicemail, so I ignore it.
Received 14 calls from this number in a week; after blocking them, I still get a missed‑call text each time—extremely irritating!
A call was received; when I asked for identification, they hung up – such behavior from anyone claiming charitable support is unacceptable for both the individual and the organization they claim to represent.

FAQ — Australia
How do I verify callers in Australia?
Call back via the official company number (website/app), not the unknown number. Check in‑app notices.
What patterns are common?
Delivery/appointment confirmations, bank callbacks, 2FA codes; periodic robocalls, smishing around parcels, and fake support hotlines.
Are area codes reliable?
Not really. Portability and VoIP make 02/03/07/08 weak as location hints. Context and content matter more.
What makes a helpful report?
Be concise: caller type, purpose, date and cues. Avoid sensitive data.
