Caller: Possible Debt Collection? Apparently it is multiple companies who deal with 'quite' sensitive information and they wouldn't give out details. However they did say they were located in Brisbane, wanted my personal information before giving me any details. The person on the other end of the phone wasn't impressed that without knowing who I was giving my information to, I wasn't able to do so. She said someone would be calling back.

Debt collection agency attempting to recover money by blowing out the phones of third parties that may or may not know the subject of the alledged debt.
They attempt to call parents, siblings, cousins, neighbours, work colleagues, anyone even remotely associated with the subject or their lives in the hope they can get to them. What they do is illegal, and they can safely be ignored.
When a bad debt is passed onto a debt collector, the agency purchases the debt for 10 to 20 cents in the dollar and then attempt to collect the FULL amount from the original borrower (plus interest).
However, what most people are unaware of is that once the debt has been purchased by a third party , the debt has been expunged for the original borrower, and that is the end of the matter. The only signature from the borrower is on a contract between the bank/credit provider and the borrower. There is no signed contract between a debt collector and the original borrower.
Therefore, do not admit or agree to anything a debt collector says on the phone, as they will attempt to trick you into entering into a contract with them (if you're the original borrower they are after) and try to get you on a 'payment plan'.
The statute of limitations means they can only chase you for a maximum of five years, but if you admit to anything or enter into agreement with them (even verbally), then that resets and you can be harangued another five years or until you've satisfied the needs of these vultures.
Your best bet is to avoid them like the plague, legally they have no clout. All they have is intimidation tactics on the phone. Weak! They are legally only allowed to call 3 times a week or 12 in a month, but that is IF YOU ANSWER. so answer the call & just hang up & they won't be able to call again.

Male caller with an accent, possibly Indian. Asked for Kelly (I couldn't understand the surname). When I asked why he wanted to talk to "her" I think he assumed that I knew Kelly so he continued to talk. Cited "personal business" that he needed to talk to her about and couldn't tell me anything else due to "privacy". Asked him what privacy laws he was referring to and couldn't answer my question. As the conversation progressed he told me he was going to delete my number (mobile) from his records. I could hear kids playing in the background. Prefix number (02) 8 is for Sydney, New South Wales, not Brisbane, Queensland as mentioned in an earlier post.

Caller: Scam. I called back and they said they were from credit Corp. When I asked for their ACN number (before I would give them any more personal information) they hung up on me. I have chased up credit Corp and they have no record of this number. Do not give these people your details.
