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.

They claimed to be from Telstra, but the call turned out to be a scam.
I recived a call from a energy company, the person had a indian accent, i block this number, it's very anoying
Got a random call from someone offering a personal loan—totally unsolicited, bro.
When I answered, the caller, speaking with a foreign accent, said he was from Telstra regarding my internet service. After I gave directions, I hung up and blocked the number.
Authorities have been notified about this scam caller's number.
Message not left!
A male caller was impolite when I greeted him. I'm interested in the numbers showing up on my IP phone, such as 6424766357, which reveal more when analyzed.
Again, only silence from the other side.
Beware: a scammer called, so keep your personal information private.
She introduced herself as Jean and called repeatedly, though I don't recognize her.
I ignored the call, assuming it was a scam. Recently I've been inundated with scam calls; after a quiet Wednesday, Thursday brought a surge from an auto‑dialer targeting my number.
May I know who's calling?
They rang for three consecutive days but never left a voicemail.
The person on the line claimed to be a random creep wanting to be my little "bitch boy"—what the heck?
Uncertain about this call.
Received a text from someone named Julia Marina asking “You good?”. When I replied for identification, she responded with a stylized message offering job positions that might suit me, then ignored my question about how she got my number. This appears to be a scam.
A caller from India tried to snag my credit card details, then dropped off after nine seconds amid a noisy background—what a joke, huh?
When I tried returning the call, the message indicated the number is disconnected.

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.
