Searched this number blocked call they just hung up when I did not answer at 8:16PM

Started getting 1-3 calls a day from this number and have never been able to speak to anyone. Last weekend the number got attached to an Ebay auction for an item I sold and shortly after a purported Paypal email arrived for me. I checked with Paypal and they informed me that the email was a scam and they wanted my banking details. They are going to investigate the number but I wouldn't hold my breath. If you get a call from this number or any others that are in the same sequence just delete it straightaway.

Has rang a few times. I have finally asnwered as i was at home at the time they called. The lady was nice to me but told her im on do not call list and hanged up. She rang again. I thought it might a be telemarketer but since she spoke nicely about the survey, i politely told her i rather not discuss my health as its between me and my doctor and im very sorry but im about the cook dinner and rather not do the survey. They rang at 5:30pm. I also hearing impaired so im not gonna pick up all the words being said over the phone is also another reason why i didnt want to do the survey.

what does it have to do with me?

Ask how much they were paying for my time when they said nothing i "HUNG Up" then blocked the number.

very annoying. so not interested!

I live in South Australia, not Victoria. I told them this and hung up. Next day they called again, so I just hung up without saying anything. After a couple of days of them still calling me, I told them Im not interested and how did they get my silent number, plus the fact that Im on the No Call Register? They said sorry but called again the next day anyway. Rang my service Provider and had their number blocked. Worked!!!

Missed call on my mobile broadband router. Cold caleer!

I received a call from The Social Research Centre on a Sunday around lunchtime even though we are on the Do Not Call Register. When I queried this, I was advised they are exempt because they are conducting government research and offered to place us on their Do Not Call register. I declined the offer as I escalated this to the Australian Government Do Not Register ... there should be NO EXEMPTIONS!!!

ANU who runs surveys for various govt departments. this time a health population survey for Victoria.

annoying I don't answer &they keep calling another number until 9pm a**holes won't leave me alone!!
