Charity Phishing

Caller: (03) 8400 3016

Answered the call with my name instead of hello. After a 10 second delay the phone disconnected.
Have found this works for most of the random number call generators as they are looking for "hello" to connect.
Say speak to me or your name and they seem to stop calling.
Blocked number anyways - but every bit helps.
Called at 8pm Melbourne time

Easiest way to stop these pain in the necks is to buy the following we love it, just register
the phone numbers on it of people you want to call you, simple easy to use, if the number is not listed on your phone it does not ring and they can't leave a message, it just lists the number who tried to call you.

Telstra Call Guardian 301 Blocks up to 1000 numbers $72 outright

Spam call, does not leave message and hangs up.

I too have received multiple calls from this number and many others recently. Coincidently, these commenced after I contacted a company called Health Deal as I was looking for a health insurance quote. Are they connected???

Keeps calling several times a day. Will not stop calling.

Rings several times each day. No answer, called the number and gave the bloke that answered a gob full.

I'm so, so sick of this plague of scamming pests. They call on slightly different numbers, never leaving a message. All they seem to want to do is drive people crazy in their own homes. There must be something that can be done about this.

Caller: (03) 8400 3016

You say hello and they don't answer and 10' later disconnect. what is it that they achieve? The government should do something about these people.

Several calls no one there Feb 2022 no requests for donation what are they after?
Thanks for this reverseaustralia list.

Caller: Scam

This is a scam

Yea, never answer with 'yes' as it WILL trigger the robot, and could worse!
I have taught myself to listen first, if its a robot it will disconnect in time.
Let the caller initiate the conversation, after all, they made the call.
If it's a genuine call, tell them the reason why you are apprehensive.
