WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why would a caller ask about EFTPOS details?
Legitimate businesses rarely contact you unsolicited asking for EFTPOS or payment system information. The contributor who reported 08 8552 3364 (0885523364) was right to feel suspicious-this is a common pretext scammers use to obtain financial details or verify active payment systems they can target.
Should I answer calls from 0885523364?
Based on the single report about 08 8552 3364, the contributor felt suspicious enough to hang up. If you don't recognise the number, letting it go to voicemail is safest. If it's genuinely important, they can leave a message or you can call back using a number you verify independently.
What's the difference between suspicious and confirmed scam?
The report for 08 8552 3364 is categorised as suspicious rather than a confirmed scam because the contributor hung up before the call progressed further. This means we know the approach raised red flags, but we don't have details about what the caller would have done next or whether money was involved.
Can I block 08 8552 3364 on my phone?
Yes. On most Australian mobile phones, you can block 0885523364 directly in your phone's contacts or call settings. For landlines, contact your provider (in this case, Telstra offers call blocking services) to request blocking of 08 8552 3364.
Is this a business in South Australia?
The number 08 8552 3364 is allocated to Telstra as a local South Australian service, but allocation doesn't confirm legitimacy. The single contributor who reported 0885523364 found the caller's approach suspicious, so treat unsolicited calls asking about EFTPOS with caution regardless of where the number originates.
What should I do if they call back?
If 08 8552 3364 or 0885523364 calls again, you can hang up without answering. If calls persist, block the number and report it to Reverseau so other contributors can see the pattern. If you suspect illegal activity, report to Scamwatch (scamwatch.gov.au) or ACMA (acma.gov.au).
