WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
What is the automated message from 08 5115 0741 asking for?
Based on community reports, 08 5115 0741 (0851150741) begins with an automated voice asking you to select a language. One voicemail mentioned an urgent document notification, though contributors have not provided complete details of the full message content. The robocall appears designed to reach a wide audience through automated language routing.
Why does 0851150741 ask me to pick a language?
Language selection at the start of an automated call is typical of robocall systems that operate at scale. By asking callers to choose a language, the system filters calls to the appropriate pre-recorded message in that language. This is a common infrastructure feature in mass robocall campaigns rather than an indicator of legitimacy.
Should I press a number when 08 5115 0741 asks for a language selection?
No. Contributors recommend letting calls from 08 5115 0741 go to voicemail or hanging up immediately upon recognising an automated message. Pressing any number confirms your phone number is active and monitored, which can result in more calls to 0851150741 from the same operation or sold to other robocall services.
Is 08 5115 0741 a scam or just spam?
Community reports for 08 5115 0741 (0851150741) classify it as nuisance robocall activity. While one report flagged it as suspicious due to the vague urgent document notification message, contributors have not reported financial loss or identity theft attempts. However, the nature of what organisation the robocall represents remains unclear from available reports.
How often do people receive calls from 08 5115 0741?
Two contributors have reported calls from 0851150741, with at least one receiving multiple calls on separate days (afternoon and evening). This pattern suggests the robocall system is making repeated attempts rather than a one-off contact, typical of automated dialling campaigns.

Yes. Most Australian phones allow you to block numbers directly in your call settings or contacts. Block 08 5115 0741 (0851150741) after the first call to prevent further contact.
