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.
An unidentified call centre placed the call.
Holly McAllister called me; it wasn't a joke, and I couldn't categorize it otherwise. The caller threatened me, and I now fear for my safety.
Anyone know whose number this is? lol
A call came in today (5 Nov 2025) beginning with a synthetic American accent, then apparently repeating the message in Chinese.
An unknown caller was served with an IVO to cease contact; they accused me of nonsense and were billed.
After I answered, the call was immediately disconnected.
Just an insult, definately not helpful.
The source seemed to be scammers from China.
The conversation started in Chinese before the caller abruptly ended it.
The number appeared in a fraudulent email pretending to be from ANZ Bank, which claimed a new monthly payment had been set up and instructed recipients to call the number if they hadn't authorized it. The sender address clearly indicated a scam, and I never dialed the number, so I can only label it as a scam operation.
Uncertain about the caller’s identity.
Nothing left as a voicemail.
A fraudulent message claimed a new Google Pixel 7 device was added to my myGov account.
The call came from Tristan Rodgers, who said he was dialing from Bellingen, NSW.
It appears to be a scam.
Message not left after the call.
A representative from Credit Corp said they were pursuing an Optus debt currently under review by the TIO, insisting I shouldn't pay until a decision is made, yet Optus continues to send collectors, which feels both irritating and unlawful.
A solar scam operation, using the number 90224476, had a representative named Tony.
A man claimed to be from the PA Hospital research team, speaking with an Indian accent; when I called back he wouldn’t identify himself until I gave my name and birthdate, so I hung up.

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.
