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.

Repeated harassment calls, very annoying.
Pubblicità/telemarketing, offerta non richiesta.
The contacts 647-354-2063 and 289-624-4285 are tied to a sexual offender and scammer offering free software through a fake company called Terabyte Computer Services, L1X 0A3.
Details include location and company name.
Got a call from an unknown source, no clear purpose.
A telemarketer called out of the blue. Their pitch was generic and I wasn’t interested.
I couldn't tell who it was, just a vague unknown number.
Weekly calls from Concentrix telemarketing, tied to Google, keep persisting despite my repeated requests to stop; I've also emailed Google multiple times about this alleged 'accredited' partner spamming calls and emails.
Received a fraudulent call claiming to be eBay, threatening a $299 charge to my account.
Looks like a ping or silent call; nothing was left behind and I couldn’t return the call.
When I returned the call, the only thing I heard was “your enquiry isn’t important, a consultant will call you back shortly”. That happened around 10:30 am, and oddly I haven’t submitted any queries lately, you know.
Alltid ringer de meg, selv om jeg har satt opp at alle ukjente numre skal avvises – utrolig irritasjonsmoment!
