This is not a scam. This is Fairfax Media. In my case The Age Newspaper subscription service following up on a newspaper delivery complaint. On another occasion they were following me up re making sure I was extending my subscription in time.

Both were definitely service calls for my benefit.

This is fairfax media.

Very strange, after reading some of the comments. Ours was a genuine call from the Fin Review in response to a problem with our subscription. Can the scammers sometimes hijack that number? Or do Fairfax simply use this line for all calls from its Manila office.

This is a call centre ran by Fairfax Media. It is NOT a scam, they are reputable, only because of the Indian accents they sound dodgy, but they are OK.

from reading the comments im glad i didnt answer the call, im weary about numbers that i dont know, always someone wanting something or trying to sell me stuff

Has rung 3 days in a row. Had to block

This guy called this morning. Just said hello to get my name I am guessing. Blocked the number, but I believe I will get a call from another number saying I have recently agreed to advertise in some dodgy magazine back in December, 2014 and they want my mailing address to send out the dodgy magazine and invoice.
Scammers

Caller: Fairfax media

Fairfax media call centre - called to renew subscription. Not a scam

Caller: Fairfax

I had placed a classified advertisement in a Fairfax newspaper earlier in the day. They needed clarification.

Caller: Fairfax Media

Was a call from Fairfax Media responding to a query I made regarding my subscription to The Age.

All these comments indicate this is not a scam as it is Fairfax Media etc. Well i have nothing, zilch, subscriptions, or anything to do with Fairfax media and my number is on the Do Not Call register. So if this is NOT a scam why are they calling me? It cannot be to sell their product as I am on Do NOT Call register, and i have nothing with them. Sorry, to all those who think this is okay, but to me that is a SCAM.

it's just Fairfax Media's call

Called to update my credit card details and was blocked for Fairfax. This isn't a scam.

Constant messages from this number at odd times

Trying to sell me property in Nigeria, voice was Indian

I got just people laughing when I checked my messages & the last phone no. that had called was 96968999

Why doesn't someone find out were theses people are and pay a visit, it is harassment if you were to do this to someone yourself on a regular bases you could expect a call from the Police, were are theses people.

this is Fairfax media offering me 'the opportunity' to purchase advertorials with them.

Ran to the phone and this number, hanged up as I answered. Glad I missed it now.

The number left a message in my message bank saying that it was the Melbourne age news paper . I did not return their call .
