As being an IT Entrepreneur based in Sydney, Australia, I checked and analysised the AUSBRD, it turned out that it is a SCAMMER. The main reason are :
(1)I attempted to call on the given number - no one responsed!
(2 ) I look at the the domain authority and Trust Flows as they claim for a national wise review and Directory Board, I found that the rating is 10/100 which is way minimal than the site I design and uploade in a day. It proofs that AUSBRB is a scammer. Don't pay and follow them.

Looks like a Scammer .

Caller: Olivia Barnes sent me multiple emails and had this number (2) 8091 4552

She has said everything everyone else has received . I have deleted the emails and didn’t call or respond

I received email quoting this phone number. Checked the business name on ABN Lookup and it does not exist. This is a scam.

Caller: jordan

email - nomination for AUSBRB - did not reply did not click "link"

Caller: Australian Business Review Board (AUSBRB)

I did not actually receive a call, I just googled this phone number: (02) 8091 4552 and found myself here.

The content of the email was exactly the same as others here have posted. Please everybody make sure that you mark this as spam to help others from falling for this.

My business has no stars on Google but was selected for our 4+ star rating -BS

Caller: Olivia

Misrepresenting a business listing company. New domain showing what appear to be low value current clients and do link to real Insta/LinkedIN, however a scam parse over their website puts at very low trust. Business name registers in ASIC and each state have no references to the organisation. Global domain is not encouraging as it should be an AU. No US listing for an incorporation of the same name. Looks to me as a business listing scam, low trust.

Caller: Steven Hoffman

Received same message checked their website looks like a hacker, will delete and ignore their email.

They scout for additions to their listing by sending businesses emails advising they have won an 'award' for excellence. It seems they use google reviews as criteria. My business has five stars because I have have one star only review from my partner - hardly a way to assess excellence. They then offer to list on their site for a fee... nothing legit about these people from either end.

The missing 0 from the area code is much like AUD in emails... The scammers don't understand Australia protocols immediately causing alarm bells.
