When we launched Reverseau back in 2014, our goal was to create a free, easy-to-use service for Aussies to reverse lookup Australian phone numbers and find out who was calling them. In those early days, we provided details like names, addresses, and even business information to help users identify unknown callers. But as times changed, so did our priorities. By 2018, we made a big call to protect personal privacy and stopped sharing any personal details. More recently, we’ve gone a step further and removed business information too, focusing solely on what matters most to our users today: staying safe from scams. Our mission is to empower Aussies with a reliable, community-driven platform that helps everyone spot and avoid fraudulent calls and texts, keeping privacy first and foremost.
Over the years, we’ve seen a growing demand for tools to tackle the rising tide of scam calls and phishing messages flooding Australian phones. People aren’t just looking to identify a caller’s details anymore—they want to know if that number flashing on their screen is tied to a scammer. That’s why Reverseau has transformed into a vibrant, user-powered community where Aussies come together to report suspicious phone numbers. Every report you submit helps others recognise dodgy numbers, making it easier to dodge those annoying robocalls, fake text messages, or phishing scams trying to trick you into sharing personal info. We’re driven by a vision to be Australia’s go-to resource for outsmarting scammers, where users share knowledge and build a safer digital space for everyone.
Our platform thrives on the contributions of users like you, who take a moment to flag a scam number or share their experience with a suspicious call. These reports create a powerful database that helps warn others before they fall victim to fraud. Whether it’s a fake bank alert, a dodgy parcel delivery text, or someone pretending to be from the tax office, Reverseau’s community is here to help you stay one step ahead. We aim to make this service as impactful as possible, targeting a future where every Aussie can use Reverseau to quickly check a number, learn from others’ experiences, and feel confident in protecting themselves from fraud—all while keeping our platform free and accessible.
Using Reverseau is as simple as it gets: just pop in the number that called or texted you, and check if it’s been flagged as a scam by our community. While we strive to make the platform as accurate as possible, please keep in mind that the information comes from user reports and may not always be spot-on. We can’t take responsibility for any inaccuracies, but we’re always working to improve the system and make it as reliable as it can be. Best of all, Reverseau is completely free to use—no subscriptions, no time limits, no hidden costs. We’re incredibly grateful for the contributions of our community, from reporting scam numbers to spreading the word about staying safe. Together, we’re building a stronger, smarter defence against scammers.
Thank you for being part of Reverseau. Here’s to staying scam-free and helping each other find the answers we need!
