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.
Those collectors are a pain – just ignore them, mate.

The firm Community Engagement Limited ran a political survey for the Victorian state election and deemed it worthwhile.
A bot‑run political survey gave no ID or contact info; when they called back they asked me to leave a voicemail to complain, calling themselves “Community Engagement – Automated Research Surveys” and claiming they follow data rules, yet there’s no way to reach a real person. They’d ring my landline, then my mobile within minutes, pestering us for weeks at odd hours. Total idiots, huh.
They seem unaware of the DO NOT CALL regulations.
A brief missed call was logged, only a quick ring.
Just a quick ring then they dropped the call, man.
They continue to call repeatedly.
Seems to be a recurring scam.

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.
