How Nuisance Campaigns Work in QLD
Based on 6,500 community reports classified as nuisance in Queensland.
Nuisance reports from Queensland generally follow national trends, adjusted for the state's population size and geographic spread.

- Prefix spread - Activity spans mobile (04) and landline prefixes tied to Queensland's area codes
Where to Report - QLD
Report nuisance 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
What counts as a nuisance call in Queensland?
A nuisance call is disruptive without being fraudulent - repeated hang-ups, silent calls, aggressive sales, or persistent callbacks. In Queensland, these often come from debt collectors, survey firms, or automated systems calling 07 numbers repeatedly.
How do I report nuisance calls in Queensland?
Report to the ACMA (acma.gov.au) for telemarketing rule breaches, register on the Do Not Call Register (donotcall.gov.au), and submit a report on Reverseau to help other QLD residents identify the number.
Are nuisance calls illegal in Australia?
Some are. Exceeding silent call limits, calling DNCR-registered numbers without exemption, and continuing to call after being asked to stop can all breach Australian telecommunications law. The ACMA can issue infringement notices and fines. Persistent harassment may also be a state criminal matter.
This data comes from community reports within Queensland and reflects what people have experienced, not legal findings. Classifications follow Reverseau’s methodology.
