02 8201 5012 (0282015012): Community reports of recurring spam calls from similar numbers. NSW-based local service flagged as suspicious by contributors.
Spam Reports for 02 8201 5012
Two contributors have flagged 02 8201 5012 (also written as 0282015012) as problematic. The most recent report describes a pattern of constant calls from this number and similar ones, suggesting organised spam activity rather than isolated telemarketing. One contributor noted the calls felt suspicious but couldn't pinpoint specific details about what was being pitched.
02 8201 5012 is registered as a local service number in NSW through NetSIP Pty Ltd. The fact that one contributor mentions "constant calls from similar numbers" suggests this may be part of a broader calling campaign, with multiple related numbers used to evade blocking.
What Contributors Report About 02 8201 5012
The primary complaint about 0282015012 centres on volume and persistence. One contributor described being sick of the repeated contact, indicating the calls have occurred multiple times rather than as a one-off event. The other report flags the number as sounding "dodgy" without elaborating further, though the use of "dodgy" typically indicates caller behaviour or messaging that raised red flags.
Neither contributor provided specific details about what the caller claimed to be selling or the exact nature of their pitch, which is common when people are annoyed by frequent calls and report them quickly without documenting every detail.
Report Patterns and Timing
Both reports were submitted months apart (November 2025 and February 2026), suggesting 02 8201 5012 has been active across an extended period. One report came through a general "other" channel rather than a typical call-answered format, indicating contributors may be reporting this number through various methods available on Reverseau.
The pattern of "constant calls from similar numbers" mentioned in one report is worth noting. This behaviour is common among spam operations that use multiple linked numbers to reduce the impact of individual number blocks. If you've received calls from 02 8201 5012 and other similar NSW numbers in quick succession, this may explain the pattern.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 02 8201 5012
If 02 8201 5012 calls you:
- Do not: Answer if the number is unfamiliar, return the call, or engage with any offer presented
- Do: Let it go to voicemail, block the number immediately in your phone settings, and note the time and date of the call
- Do: Be aware that similar numbers may also contact you - if multiple calls arrive in short succession, blocking one may not stop the campaign
- Do: Check if you're registered on the Do Not Call Register (donotcall.gov.au) - if you are and still receiving calls, this strengthens your complaint

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why do I keep getting calls from 02 8201 5012 and similar numbers?
One contributor reported constant calls from 02 8201 5012 and similar numbers, which suggests an organised spam campaign using multiple related numbers. This is a common tactic to reduce the effectiveness of individual number blocks. If you block 02 8201 5012, the same caller may try again from a slightly different number (such as 02 8201 5013). Reporting each number separately to ACMA and adding them to your phone's block list provides the best defence.
Should I answer calls from 02 8201 5012?
No. Community reports flag 0282015012 as spam, and contributors describe it as sounding dodgy. Unknown numbers claiming to be local services (like 02 8201 5012) are often used in spam campaigns. Let the call go to voicemail - if it's legitimate, the caller will leave a message and you can decide whether to return the call.
Is 02 8201 5012 a scam or just spam?
Based on community reports, 02 8201 5012 has been flagged as spam rather than a confirmed scam. One contributor felt it sounded suspicious but didn't describe a specific scam attempt (like fake invoices, prize claims, or impersonation). However, the persistent call pattern is annoying enough that contributors recommend blocking it. If you do answer and the caller makes suspicious claims, that would constitute scam behaviour - report it to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au.
What provider operates 02 8201 5012?
02 8201 5012 is listed as a local service number in NSW provided by NetSIP Pty Ltd. This legitimate provider issues numbers to various businesses, but like all phone numbers, it can be misused for spam purposes. The provider name doesn't guarantee legitimacy - many spam operations rent or repurpose VoIP numbers from legitimate carriers.
Can I report 0282015012 to the Do Not Call Register?
If you're registered on the Do Not Call Register (donotcall.gov.au) and still receiving calls from 02 8201 5012, you can lodge a formal complaint. The Do Not Call Register handles telemarketing complaints and can investigate if a business is breaching the rules by calling registered numbers without consent. Provide the date, time, and frequency of calls from 0282015012 to strengthen your complaint.
What should I do if I already answered a call from 02 8201 5012?
If you answered 02 8201 5012 and the caller asked for personal information, change your passwords and monitor your accounts. If they made specific claims (about a delivery, debt, or prize), check those directly with the official organisation - never use contact details the caller provided. Block 0282015012 immediately and report the call to ACMA. If the caller was unusually aggressive or threatening, also report to ReportCyber at cyber.gov.au.
