Call from this number, subcontinent accent said it was a senior health survey. Said no and put the phone down. Immediately re-rang and a woman this time, same story. Said No again and put the phone down. Checked the call log and between these two calls was a missed call from the same number. Calls timed at 12;33, 12:34 and 12:34. Persistant or what? Nothing since.

Told we are "Do Not Call Register". Woman replied "we are not selling anything" I put our phones on this register to stop these types of calls. What is the use if they ignore our wishes?

Caller: Foreign scammers

Thank our puppet government for selling our jobs and personal details offshore. If they aren't importing the third world at our expense they are helping them bleed us dry with phone and internet scams. The joys of "diversity", in real word terms means keeping us poor and debt ridden so the tax and interest gravy train keeps rolling on for the elite.

returned the missed call. "The number you have called is not connected" was the response. Has anyone else noticed that these things started when Telstra in it's infinite wisdom moved services offshore? Between this rubbish and "someone from this number had a motoring accident within the last 12 months" and "please log on to your internet as I am from telstra and we notice you are having problems" I have had enough. Poo poo to you telstra.

I answered it on the 1st ring. No answer, until I almost hung it up when a foreign voice said Hello. If no-one answers when I say hello, I know it has been dialled by a computer / robot.

Caller: The Australian Health and Wellness Forum survey

Told them as a matter of principal I do not answer questionnaire or surveys.
Asked me if I was over 50? Not trying to sell me anything!
Told caller "with accent" that I was not prepared to co-operate.
Thanked me "have a nice day"
I wonder if the owners of this phone number ever check their own phone details like this to see how many fans they have.

Had a call from this number from a man called Francis, conducting a survey regarding seniors health. Hope it's not a scam. He had an accent, probably from the Philipines, i would say.

Yes we have an answering machine so if no message is left I plug the number into search and usually they are nuisance calls so I block them. Love blocking them!

Caller: Australian Health and Wellness Forum

I am an Aussie that goes back and forth from AU to the Philippines since me and my filipino wife are building a house for ourselves. I can speak fluent tagalog. Anyway I think I know where these people are working. I rode a jeepney (their public transport) and have heard two women, one was probably in her 20s and the other was around mid-50s. They were talking about the calls they had for the day, I believe. They are selling beds for Revitalife (an aussie therapeutic company). I heard the younger lady say (english translated): "What is happening to talk to me?" At first, I got confused. Then the elderly lady said: "That always happens there in talk to me". At that point, I thought talk to me was where they worked. What I did was try searching it on google, I didn't get any result. Since I was in Alabang, Muntinlupa City that time, I added Alabang to the search. And boom, I got their company. It's Talk2Me. I did a quick background check where they are located. I even tried going to their office. It was really small. I didn't even bother going in. There you have it mates. Talk2Me is giving their services to Revitalife.

Caller: Australian Health and Wellness Forum

They are not a scam, per se. What they actually do is market research for Revitalife. I've gotten a ring from them before, and Revitalife rang me after a week or so. Revitalife offers a variety of therapeutic products that help middle-aged to seniors. They give a 1 week free trial, and the product they'll offer will depend on the health questions you answered. I am an elderly man, and have a lot of back problems. I was able to be treated by the bed they sell.

Exactly the same thing just happened to me. Filipino accent but I got sucked in. Same questions. Said she got my info from the white pages. Phone no was (08) 9497 5375 (Perth no). I too wish I'd hung up but I didn't give them any personal info. Definitely a scam of some kind as she kept validating my answers in a personal way eg "Do you have any major health problems" to which I answered no and she said "well done, keep living a healthy lifestyle". That was when the light bulb went on! I asked who the survey was being done for: answer = Australian Health and Wellness forum, a private company.

If they call through Skype (or similar) they can make the call look like it came from any number they want. Account set-up asks you to enter a number (can be anywhere, any number - no checks) in response to: Display this number when I call or text (SMS) mobiles and landlines from Skype. Not Telstra's fault, nor 'Do Not Call' register - the DNC relies on complaints and doesn't (indeed can't) block calls - would be no use anyway when scammers can use any number they like (see comment re Skype).

Beware of this phone number.
Filipino called Jeff claiming to be doing survey for Australian Seniors Health Forum. He wouldn't say who hired him or which association the Forum belonged to, and I found trace of this forum via Google. I later discovered that 'Jeff' was hiding behind an Australian out-of-service landline phone number. Come on Telstra, put a stop to these scammers once and for all.

Didn't give the foreign accented man a chance to waste my time. Simply asked him
"was this a government supported survey" to which he replied "No a private company".
Code for incoming call was 02 (NSW). Hung up.

Overseas scammer "Australian Health and Wellness Forum" using a spoofed (fake) number from the Phippines. Diverted to the scammer answering machine, I hope they enjoyed the chat with it.

i always thought this kind of sh*t was a scam, they keep saying they're from "health and wellness forum" and wanted to take a survey, they always claim that they are not selling anything, i always hang up on them until my wife unbeknownst to me decided to participate. Got a call from Revitalife a few weeks later said they got my wife infos through a survey, they knew she had osteoarthritis and severe backpain and decided to offer her a free trial of bed, now she's loving it and all. to all of you give them a chance they are not scamming if they are not asking for your credit card details or pushing to give your full name. I felt sorry to those who i cursed.. im writing this for my wife who keep telling me im stupid for not filling up early

Caller: Guy ringing from Philippines

Ringing on phone number (08) 9581 4479, various questions re back pain, arthritis etc, got our details from white pages, new name and address

Woman with Asian accent said she was doing a survey for the Australian Health and Wellness Forum. When I asked who they would be giving the information to, why they needed to collect the information or what it would be used for, she could not give me an answer except to say they were collecting the information. Duh. Needless to say I hung up. Typical scam call.
