Aggressive Nuisance Reports for 02 6176 0835

Two contributors have reported hostile behaviour from 02 6176 0835 (also written as 0261760835). The calls stand out for their aggressive tone and use of threats rather than typical spam or sales tactics. One report from August 2024 describes a caller who became verbally abusive, shouting profanities and refusing to accept the contributor's authority or direction on the call.

Unlike conventional spam numbers, this Canberra-based local service number (registered to Verizon Australia) appears to be used for confrontational calls rather than impersonation or sales pitches. The unprofessional behaviour suggests either a business dispute, workplace-related contact, or a harassment attempt.

What Callers from 02 6176 0835 Say

According to the reports, callers from 0261760835 engage in aggressive verbal conduct. One contributor described receiving a call where the person on the other end shouted profanities and explicitly refused to comply with the contributor's requests or instructions. The caller's refusal to take direction indicates either deliberate antagonism or a highly unprofessional approach to whatever the call was about.

The second report simply notes the caller was rude, but the first report provides far more concerning detail: aggressive tone, profanity use, and direct confrontation. This pattern suggests these are not automated or scripted calls, but rather direct hostile contact from someone with a grievance or intent to harass.

Report Timing and Channel

Both calls to 02 6176 0835 were answered by the recipients rather than going to voicemail. One report was filed in August 2024, and the second in September 2025, suggesting this number may have been used for hostile contact over an extended period. The time gap between reports makes it unclear whether this is an ongoing pattern or isolated incidents from different callers using the same line.
