Have had repeated calls from (03) 8588 3916 - most I have ignored and waited to see if they leave a message - they don’t. Tonight I answered but didn’t say anything. No one at the other end - I guess the computer was waiting for me to say something and when I didn’t it hung up. I have a silent number and am sick of these callers accessing my number.

Caller: Gave her name, but dont remember it This EXACT same voice/cadence/person has rung me about 5 times the past month. Different name given each time (last time was 'Melanie Stevens' - different name this time). Different numbers each time, but this was todays number. Last time it was a survey of Australian charities; time before was some sort of homeless charity. Today's was for some sort of Domestic Violence charity. I SUSPECT it is an AI-driven robot who sounds VERY real(Even giving herself a real name). Last time, I accidentally forced her to go off-script when I didnt understand her question, and she asked the EXACT same question 3 times. When I did the same again intentionally, I got the exact same question 3 times again; same inflection, cadence, words. When I blurted out I was talking to a freaking ROBOT, she actually laughed, and after a pause, started asking me the same question again exactly as before. My suggestion? Get her to move off-script, and see how she responds. I keep thinking about these phone-calls, and it creeps me out. Every time I hear that gushy, over-caring voice, I start trying to figure out how I can prove beyond all doubt that it is a robot, but I'm about 85% certain it IS...

This number rings me several times a day and never leaves a message. Anyone know how I block the number from my home phone please? It's a Panasonic hands free, about 10 years old

This number has called 12 times (that I know of) since the start of December last year and increasing in frequency. Pests that obviously do not get the message! They do not leave any details so I do not answer and that will continue - I have blocked the number.

They call every few days however I do not answer - just pests (to put it politely). Never leave a message - just drop the phone!

Persistent caller. They phone a couple of times a week, but I leave the answering machine on and they don't leave a message

Caller: Next Steps Australia This number called me again today (I guess I forgot to add them to my blocklist the first time! Fixed now!)
The script was almost identical to the last time they called, same voice, same hyper-cheery tone despite being about domestic violence during a pandemic. They gave me the same pitch as they did to GW: "we need 3 people to donate & we've already had 2 others today, we just need you". A new addition this time, when I mentioned I only donate online they read out their full web address.
Thanks to Anonymous above, I found their details in the Australian Charities And Not-For-Profits Commission government register, with details of financials. Seems to be a very small charity operating out of Victoria. But even if it's legit - don't give your financial details out to unsolicited phone calls! It could be an impersonator. Do your own charity research & donate through official charity websites instead.
