Where to Report - QLD
Report legitimate numbers through both official channels and community platforms. Each independent submission adds weight - a number reported by ten people carries significantly more credibility than a single report.
- Scamwatch (ACCC) - National scam reporting
- ACMA - Telecommunications regulator
- Office of Fair Trading QLD - Queensland consumer protection (13 74 68)
- Reverseau - Submit a community report for any QLD number
Even if a number has already been reported, your submission still matters. Multiple reports from different people strengthen the classification and help other Queensland residents identify it before they answer.

Frequently Asked Questions
How are phone numbers confirmed as legitimate in Queensland?
Multiple QLD residents need to independently report that the number belongs to a real organisation, with consistently positive experiences. One report isn't enough - it takes community consensus.
Should I report a legitimate phone number?
Yes. Confirming legitimate numbers helps reduce false alarms and makes it easier for other QLD residents to tell real callbacks from impersonation attempts, especially for government and healthcare numbers.
How do I verify a 07 number is genuinely from a Queensland organisation?
Check the number against the official contact details on the organisation's website (.gov.au or .com.au). Real organisations use consistent published numbers and won't ask for sensitive details over an unsolicited call. Reverseau reports from other QLD residents can also help confirm.
This data comes from community reports within Queensland and reflects what people have experienced, not legal findings. Classifications follow Reverseau’s methodology.
