      text received by my wife from this number containing very poor grammar and spelling with words strung together, saying that an appointment had been missed and looking forward to catching up another week. no name attached from author.
      Appears to be phishing to get a reply.

      Unicef looking for monthly donations. Aggressive information, almost hung up on them. They won't stop even if stating you aren't interested.

    5. Nicky reported Spark NZ with the number ‎098897501 as Trustworthy number

      11/21/24, 11:38 AM

      This number actually belongs to OneNZ. It's a suspense-holding number, which means if the system cannot obtain the caller's true phone number, it may display this number. The caller left a message on my phone—it was PD Insurance, and they provided an 0800 number for me to call them back on.

    Where does the information on telephone numbers come from?

    Tellows.co.nz accumulates new spam and scam numbers on a daily basis. However, the user is the greatest contributor of new numbers! Therewith, you provide the knowledge necessary to avoid being ripped off. Furthermore, the categorisation and analysis of the callers nature and, above all, your rating of the number will climax in the tellows score which will convey whether the caller is trustworthy or dubious. The greatest advantage lies in sharing all avaiable information on a fraudulent number and, thereby, warning the people of looming dangers before they even lift the receiver.
