Check unknown NZ numbers with recent reports (Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton) and share your experience.
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.

Ekstremt irriterende at de stadig ringer, og det fra ulike numre, lol.
A call came in at 7:30 pm NZT claiming to be from the Breast Cancer Foundation, but the speaker used a fake British accent and there was a lot of background noise. When I asked to be called later, they insisted on staying on the line, so I ended the call.
I was told to block this number after it requested a survey promising prizes, used my address and name, asked for my email (I gave a false one), then requested my birthdate, so I hung up.
