nuisance calls

I am currently being plagued by nuisance calls from a single source. They are from someone who claims to be Nicole from NBN and is going to shut down my service within 24 hours if I don’t follow their instructions. I know it's a scam.


Maybe I can put up with one nuisance call per day. 2 Days ago it was at least 5 times.

There is a caller ID but I’m guessing it I spoofed because every time they call, it is a different phone number and the same message. So it is futile blocking it.

Spoofed Numbers in my records are :-

  • 038xxxxxxx
  • 039xxxxxxx
  • 032xxxxxxx
  • 032xxxxxxx
  • 032xxxxxxx
  • 032xxxxxxx
  • 032xxxxxxx
  • 032xxxxxxx
  • 032xxxxxxx
  • 038xxxxxxx
  • 036xxxxxxx
  • 039xxxxxxx
  • 039xxxxxxx

What can be done to stop this intrusion?

Thank you.

Hi @SineNomine

 

Thanks for reaching out to us. You may consider reporting the numbers to ACMA via this link: http://donotcall.gov.au. Although I'm afraid that if they are indeed spoofing the numbers, you may need to report several numbers in this case.

I am getting 20 of these calls a day. I want to know where can I at least add the numbers they use for that day so I can block them for a day at least until the numbers change.

Hi @spotts,

 

As advised by our colleague. You may consider reporting the numbers to ACMA via this link: http://donotcall.gov.au or you may also use your handset if it has a feature to block a caller.

 

Let us know should you require further assistance.

 

Cheers!
