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.

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.
