Caller: Man with a foreign accent Man pretending to be from a survey company but I soon twigged he was most likely a fake finance company rep who wanted information about me. I ended up stonewalling him to the point where he called me a "smart c..t" wasting his time. I hung up. Australian phone regulators could do more to discourage these scoundels.

Caller: Some Indian lady I answered the random called with “boku wa Kami da” which translates to “I am god” she then asks if she can speak to -insert my full name here- I respond with “boku wa kami da” to everything she says. A bunch of hellos later and she starts saying “lollipop and gummy bear” to me. She ends the call with “okay I have confirmed your order for lollipops and gummy bears” and hangs up. They immediately try calling me again but I just leave it to ring out. No voicemail left. Don’t be scared or convinced by them knowing your full name. Generally information is sold/leaked with more than just your phone number

Called and as soon as I answered and said hello they hung up. Reading other people's comments I've just blocked the number so I don't have to deal with them when they call back!

Answered call, but was slow to connect their side and slow to respond. They d/c on me but I could hear it was a call centre before they went.

Everytime you sign up for anything you give your details to the internet, you are the product so don't worry too much if they know some details about you, keep them talking but don't give them any more details, they hate that!

Caller: Australian Growth Research Knew my name and wanted to ask questions around the impact of inflation and interest rate rises. Most likely a scam trying to sell something or phishing. I don’t give financial details to unsolicited calls so hung up and blocked.
