Caller: Lisa from The Charity Group

Perky Lisa is a recorded message. They've called from this number (03) 4108 9913, (03) 9917 8066 and (03) 4100 0916. Can't keep up with the amount of blocking I need to do. Honestly these scammers are beyond a joke. Upwards of 10 calls a day from multiple idiots who need to get a real job. Their mums must be so proud..... these people should have been swallowed.

No message, Another blocked one to the list.

Sorry anon on June 1, they are Robot calls. No one has given them your number and suggested they prey on you as an individual. Individual call centre operators get allocated a block of numbers which will be dialed by a computer. The individual operator is on standby to take over the call if it gets answered and the recipient stays on the line for 10 to 20 seconds. The operator then delivers whatever spiel they have on the prepared script in front of them. If there is no answer, or when the recipient hangs up, the computer moves to the next number the operator has been allocated and dials that, repeat and repeat. May be a local call centre, but more likely one in India or China

Didn’t answer, no message left.

Possible scammer wanting entry to peoples house beware do not answer or ring back toesaages block them

No message left. Another scammer, another number blocked.

Repeated calls,,sooooo annoying 🙄,

What a load of old crock. They hang up when you answer anyway. Where did you get your info from?? I have had multitude calls from this ano other numbers from the same block and it is a scam. The charity is based in the Philippines. Ring the number back and get a robo recorded call to leave your number to opt out - DO NOT BE TAKEN IN as they then continually call again and again and again. I have reported them to scam watch ACCC. They just change their number and also what charity they want to use this week.

wast of time writing about it we all have the same answer about the germs

Caller: Charity Scammer

Next time they ring they can have a nice chat with my old friend Lenny ...

Scammers for sure

Caller: Larisa/Lisa? - Kindness Project / Charities - (03) 4108 9943

Called from (03) 4108 9943 but this is similar to the 'Charities call' Caller: Lisa from The Charity Group
'Perky Lisa [similar sounding to Larissa] is a recorded message. They've called from this number (03) 4108 9913'

Just going over the call I received. Philipino type voice.

So they are not a charity. Charities will properly identify themselves. Yet this seems to be representing a bunch of charities. Yes, the charities are to the scammers.

How did they get my number? I don't really give my number out. So I suspect this is due to the optus breach (and subsidiaries or resellers of optus).

[caller] Hi there this Larissa calling from "Kindness project" on behalf of some charities in Australia. How are you.
[me] Okay. Sorry, which place? "Guideness project"?
[caller] Great to hear that sir and by the way we are conducting a very short charity call to guage your charitible interests on the crisis and I only have here your charity questions that you can simply answer with yes or no and after that we are done, alright?
[me] sorry, I'd rather not answer any questions thanks.
[caller] I understand your hesitation however this call is... (I hang up)

Another of those survey things that try and reel you in. Utter crap and like others have said, don't fall for it.

Didn't answer as number not recognised. Googled and saw this site with previous complaints. Blocking number.

Pushy call centre call wanting information for prominent charities. Would not provide details of the charities. Obviously a scam.
