WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Is 07 3065 8042 definitely legitimate?
One contributor reported this as a legitimate Fire Services Raffle call. However, a single report cannot guarantee legitimacy for all calls from 0730658042. If you receive a call from this number and are unsure, independently verify the organisation by calling them using a number from their official website.
Should I buy a ticket in a Fire Services Raffle from 07 3065 8042?
Before purchasing a raffle ticket from 0730658042 or any fundraiser, verify independently that it is a legitimate registered charity or volunteer organisation. Ask for their ABN, check their registration with the ACNC (Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission), and request written raffle terms including odds and prize details.
What information should I ask for if 07 3065 8042 calls?
When 0730658042 calls, ask for: the organisation's full legal name, ABN, a phone number to verify independently, details of the raffle (prize, cost, how many tickets are being sold), and written information sent by post or email before you commit to any purchase.
Can I trust that 07 3065 8042 is safe because one report says it's legitimate?
One positive report for 0730658042 suggests a legitimate interaction, but it does not eliminate the small possibility of spoofing (where scammers use another organisation's phone number). Always independently verify any caller, regardless of what previous reports indicate.
What's the difference between a legitimate raffle call and a scam?
Legitimate raffles from 07 3065 8042 or similar numbers will provide verifiable details (ABN, organisation name, registered charity status), allow time for you to verify before purchasing, and send written terms. Scams typically use urgency ('limited time offer'), avoid answering verification questions, and pressure immediate payment.
Should I report this number even though it appears legitimate?
If you receive a call from 07 3065 8042 and have concerns about its legitimacy despite the positive report, you can report it to Scamwatch (scamwatch.gov.au) or ACMA (acma.gov.au). Community reports help other Australians make informed decisions about unknown callers.
