Frequently Asked Questions
How do I stop spam calls in South Australia?
Register on the Do Not Call Register (donotcall.gov.au), enable carrier call-blocking features, and avoid engaging with automated calls. Reporting persistent spam to Reverseau helps other SA residents identify high-volume campaigns.
Why do I get spam calls from SA numbers?
Many spam campaigns use VoIP technology to display local SA numbers as caller ID, even when originating from elsewhere. This CLI spoofing technique makes it difficult to distinguish spam from legitimate local calls.
Are 1300/1800 spam calls legal?
While some 1300/1800 telemarketing is legitimate, calls to numbers registered on the DNCR are prohibited. However, exemptions exist for charities, political parties, and research organisations. Report persistent unwanted calls through official channels.
Why am I receiving spam calls from South Australia landline numbers?
Spam operators often use local 08 landline numbers to increase answer rates, as recipients are more likely to pick up calls from recognised area codes. These numbers may be VoIP-generated or purchased in bulk from number pools. Registering on the DNCR and reporting persistent spam helps build community intelligence for SA.
This intelligence is derived from community-submitted reports within South Australia and represents collective classification rather than legal determination. All data is processed in accordance with Reverseau’s classification methodology, which prioritises transparency and consensus-based assessment.
