I had a missed call from this number today & I googled it to see what it was & found all these comments. So I called the number. It was an American girl who answers & she spun the bullshit about Bunnings voucher & in the area.

I told her she is a scammer and hung up!

Rang me today, when I answered, immediately hung up (I have Caller ID) : thinking I need to (once again) make my home and mobile numbers 'private', I.e. not available in public search records; however, judging by other comments here, the ONLY advice is to bar them on your home phone system IF you have the option.

They are called "your lifestyle choice" Told me they would be in the area soon and offering bunnings vouches and wanted to talk to me about house/mortgage insurance.. I told her that I didn't have a house and was working on saving for one - and she hung up on me - because "Customer Service Counts".
