Unknown calls in New Zealand
Unsure about a New Zealand number? Explore concise community notes to judge calls and texts. In Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Hamilton you’ll see a mix of legitimate callbacks (deliveries, banking, appointments) and waves of robocalls or phishing. Prefixes like 09 (Auckland), 04 (Wellington), 03 (Christchurch), 07 (Hamilton) and 02x mobile ranges don’t reliably prove location or identity because of portability and VoIP.
Verification: return calls via the official number on the company website/app, check in‑app notices and never share one‑time codes by phone. Use device/carrier blocking for repeat issues and leave a short, factual note here to help others.
I’m receiving both spam texts and unsolicited calls.
The Red Cross caller was pushy, trying to get donations in a way that felt more like aggressive advertising than a genuine request.

The number called both yesterday and today without leaving any message.
Seems like a scam.
It feels doubtful that these people are trustworthy. I once donated to them outside The Warehouse, and later they called requesting further donations over the phone. I agreed to give again but refused to share my card details with an unknown caller; they insisted that phone payment was the only option and then hung up. The whole interaction seemed quite shady.
They consistently call without leaving a voicemail; attempts to return the call go straight to Raisers Hub’s voicemail. After they called every two days, I blocked the number.
The telemarketer gave off a 'phishy' vibe (a phishing‑scheme joke).
Missing the call from this number and 649‑590‑3791, with no voicemail left, leads me to suspect a scam.
The caller asked whether I'd answer a few questions; after I declined, they ignored my response and kept following their script.

En meningsmåling med en høflig og grei person, helt greit, lol.
A telemarketer from Your Business Listing NZ was reluctant to reveal their origin, pretended to be calling straight from Google, and only after I pressed three times did they finally name their third‑party site.
A message from 02102584833 claimed to be from ANZ bank, stating: “Your payment to Noel Leeming for $503.74 was rejected. If this wasn’t you, call 032420980; if it was, ignore this. Ref: FR49617.”
Reported as an ANZ‑Noël Leeming scam.
Previously I donated, and they inquired whether I'd like to arrange a recurring contribution to the blood cancer society.
