IT'S DEFINATELY A SCAMMER.
PRIORITY NUMBER ONE IS TO
BLOCK IMMEDIATELY.
DO NOT RING BACK. IF YOU DO YOU'LL GET MORE SCAM CALLS.
THEY ARE TRYING THE, CALL BACK SCAM TRICK.
WHICH MEANS, IF YOU CALL BACK. THEY GET A SMALL AMOUNT OF MONEY FROM EACH CALLER. TAKING YOUR DATA, PHONE CREDIT WHATEVER. THEY ARE TRYING TO KEEP YOU ON THE PHONE, FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE. THEY GET MORE MONEY THE LONGER THAT YOU ARE ON THE PHONE. THEY GET LIKE 10c Per Minute BUT THE CALL CAN COST YOU,
UP TO $5.00 PER MINUTE. TO CALL BACK.
THEY ARE USUALLY BASED IN CHINA, INDONESIA, PAKISTAN AND AFRICA.
THEY USE CALL DIVERSION TO MAKE YOU THINK THE CALL IS FROM AUSTRALIA.
YOU NEED TO RING THE CODE ##004# TO STOP YOUR PHONE LINE, BEING ANOTHER LINK IN THE CHAIN. THE CHAIN ENDS WITH SOMEONE ELSE IN AUSTRALIA GETTING ONE OF THESE CALLS. THIS IS THE MODERN EQUIVALENT OF CHAIN MAIL. TO BLOCK THE CHAIN ENTER HASH, HASH, ZERO, ZERO, FOUR, HASH INTO YOUR PHONES KEYPAD AND PRESS DIAL. IF WE ALL ENTER THE CODE, THE CHAIN WILL BE BROKEN.
YOUR SERVICE PROVIDER CAN NOT DO THIS. WE MUST ALL DO THIS OURSELVES, TO PROTECT ALL AUSTRALIANS. ENTERING THE CODE IS LIKE,
NOT ANSWERING A CHAIN MAIL LETTER I.E.
A PHONE CALL IN THIS CASE.

I’m on the do not call and yet I am still getting these calls late at night. Getting so fed up. This one says Bradshaw Northern Territory

Same. they have called 3 times in the last week. I have blocked them now. This issue appears to be getting worse

Caller: Don’t know & don’t want to know, best is to never answer your landline, I only have it cause you need it for your internet🤨

Don’t know as I never answer my land line because of scam calls. This number rang my mobile 2 days ago & I didn’t answer as it said Bradshaw in Northern Territory & I don’t know anyone in Northern Terrirory which is why I didn’t answer. A message was left on my message bank & it was in Chinese, so obviously a scam. Gee we have such scum of the earth Evil monsters on our planet.

It came up as "suspected spam" so I didn't answer.

No Doubt, this is a scam call. I did not answer but they left a message in Chinese. So how is it this it says on my mobile Northern Territory, when in fact it’s not. So it has to be a scam. How can they use an Australian mobile number phoning from overseas. I even got another similar call yesterday & both from Northern Territory, I bet not. That really gets me. So f*ck off you scammers, you are the scum of the earth. Work hard like all of us. I’ve blocked your call too.🖕

Obviously spam from other reports and calling after 7pm is just rude imo

Rang at 8pm on a Monday. I didn’t answer and they didn’t leave a message. My phone said they were calling from Bradshaw in Northern Territory. Judging by other comments good thing I didn’t answer. My number is also supposed to be on a do not call list.

Rang me at 6:50 on a Sunday night!

Didn't leave a message, Scam. Blocked.

Rang at 7.05PM on a Saturday, this is supposed to be our quiet time, so much for the do not call register.

Thanks, I have blocked them too

Blocked this number but they still call anyways

Very annoying

Called and didn’t leave a message.

Doubt they even listened to my voicemail message as it’s longer than usual as I have a friends business phone diverted to me while they’re overseas

Called my number at 7.55 pm and I refuse to answer any call at this time of night..

Blocked the number thank you

Caller: I dont know

Briefly rang and no message left. Judging from comments it's spam
