Caller: Jessie

Asked me to give a message to my neighbour to call him ASAP.
Gave me their full name and address.
Rang from this no.
Text me on another no.
To call him on a Sydney landline no.

Caller: Irene Bell

This is a random scam from a call centre most likely collecting debt asking for a random person with same surname asking for my address and DOB. Refused to tell me what CO calling from but I located name as Irene Belll
Blocked and reported as a unsolicited call trying to gather someone's private info. Invasive call!

Caller: Name was Anthea apparently

Was looking for my sister. Knew her name, number and address. All she could tell me was that it was a personal matter.

Told me to pass on said details below,
Anthea (02) 8898 0148

But called off this number 0480 039 417. Said she'd call back in a week or 2 to confirm the message was passed on 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Rang the real estate I work for asking for clients contact information which I refused to disclose. Said her name was Shekinah & refused to give me the company she worked for. Most likely a debt collector.

Caller: 0480 039 417

Asking for someone I don’t know

Caller: Shakinah

Called asking for somebody I hadn’t spoken to or seen in years! When I asked how they got my number they lied and said Facebook (I don’t have Facebook) and when I asked what company they work for they wouldn’t tell me.. police report has been made for harassment. If you can’t tell me your business name you’re clearly somebody very dodgy.

Caller: Chris

Chris called asking for my neighbour's name and number. Said I didn't know. Asked how he got my details and he said "due to the nature of the matter he couldn't say" but it was from a customer database of some sort. Told him that it was a rbeach of privacy him having my details without my consent.. Left pretty quickly.

Just received a call from a female operator claiming to be looking for someone who had the same last name as me. When I asked why they contacted me tey said they matched up my last name with the person they were looking for and I said "What if you were looking for a John Smith? Would you call Every Smith? She did not respond.
I asked how they got my number? "sorry cannot disclose that", I asked what details of mine do they have ? "sorry cannot disclose that" what is the name of the company you work for? "sorry cannot disclose that" Can I have my data removed from the database? "No unfortunately not"
Super dodgy.

Called my mums number looking for me and all they could tell her was they’re from Sydney??? I have no business with anyone yet alone know anyone from Sydney

Scam scam

Caller: Amelia

Received a call for an employee, caller gave employees full name, when questioned what company they were calling from, "private company" and what the call was regarding "a private matter". The thing that gave me a little chill was that they asked if he was a man in his early 40's, no information was given over but they obviously have more than a work place on this employee

Same as all the others above, wouldn't give me details of what they wanted

Said he was from a company, wouldn't give details.
He was looking for a neighbour and to give him details? Haven't lived at the address for years. Asked how he got my number? He wouldn't answer.
I called back, got someone else and she wouldn't give the so called company name either.
I told her you're a scammer and I'd be reporting the call.

Caller: Jorell

I work for a Real Estate company and had this guy call asking for us to pass on his number for one of our tenants to call him back (02) 8836 4345) did a search on the mobile number that showed on my screen and saw this was a scam. i have notified the tenant and advised him of the call and that it is a scam.

Asked about someone living at my address, knew my phone number and my address, that id never heard of and said they had that address down for them and were trying to find them

Can you message this number back?

Where was this number calling from?

Caller: Irene bell

Called asking for someone who was a neighbour that I didn't recognise the name. Knew my name, my previous address and would not disclose who they worked for. Would not disclose how they got my number said they had access to private databases. I asked if the call was recorded and they said yes. I asked for a copy and they declined. I requested it to be deleted and they said they couldn't and would advise their customer service team to be in contact.

Caller: Xavier

The exact same thing happened to me. There is no way they found an old contact of mine through Facebook because my profile is locked and completely private. Very scary though.

Caller: Vee

Called wanting me to pass on a message to a friend. kept saying she but friend is a male. Wanted to text me a number but I said just give it to me and I'll write it down. said can she ring back to confirm message was passed on. Wouldn't tell me company or what the call was about just that it was a personal matter. Number she said to ring back on is (02) 8836 4373.
