This is a debt collection company called Panthera. They don't care that you are not the person they are looking for. They will change the DOB details on their records while on the phone with you to yours to get a match. They get paid a commission on money they collect and don't care. I have reported them to the police.
If they call you don't give out your address or DOB. Otherwise you will end up with someone else's debt

called my husband asking for me, he said "why", wouldn't tell him, saying it was private. Called them back, they say I have an outstanding debt with Comm Bank. I have never had an account with Comm Bank since Dollarmite account at primary school. I tried to tell them they must have the wrong person, but they won't listen. What do I do?
They are really aggressive

I had of read of the comments after missing a call and receiving a msg to call this number back second time round i answered And gave the guy made up crap information and kept annoying him by asking for his personal details i ended getting him worked up with mind games leading him on into nothing resulting with him apolygising after me calmly stating my job as a high profile private personal investigatior saying that my landline is currently connected to 3 main trace direct contact dilithiam 2bks capacitor interface servers nation wide lol watever that is
Anyway after making out like the call was traced rite to his chair i blabbed bullsh*t gps coordinates n mentioned doing work for two names louis king , Matthew peters
Whoever they are and that was the end of the call never heard from them at all I think they blocked my number at the end

made up crap information and

SCAM SCAM SCAM.. I called back and gave them my reference number and he asked me if i was 2 different people! I told him that I hadn’t lived at that property for over 10 years but my sister still lived there and she had passed on the message! I also made it clear that I had already googled the number and it came up as a scam. He then asked me what was the number they were calling me on! When I told him that he should know from the reference number I gave him he hung up..

Ruthless grubs I'm debit free and they make.up old debit

Caller: Debt collectors

My only advice is do not give out personal details over the phone. I refuse to give these people or anyone I don't know any info. If you do by chance get stuck on one of these calls and they go on about a debt always say 'alleged debt' - never admit to the debt and do not agree to make payments, Also if they tell you the debt is from another company you can tell them you have no debt with them because there is no contract with a wet signature. Also tell them if they were stupid enough to buy an 'alleged' debt off another company that's not your problem then hang up.

Debt collectors: if it’s been >6 years since you’ve had any contact on the debt - or since you acknowledged the debt in writing or in recorded conversations, they no longer have the legal right to chase the debt.

I have one Block Caller listing for Panthera on my phone, and there are over 20 landline/mobile numbers - added over the years - as they try to contact me.

Called my place of work on a Saturday and left a message with admin with a reference number

Andy from this 'Qld Company' (he wouldn't disclose the name) is calling our workplace to hassle one of our employees. Trying to pry personal information about the employee from our receptionists.

Caller: Panthera Finance

You can report them for unconscionable conduct for this I believe, debt collectors have a strict code they are supposed to operate under.
The code is available at https://www.accc.gov.au/consumers/dealing-with-debt-collectors/what-debt-collectors-can-cannot-do and there is a 1800 number 1800 007 007), I recommend reporting them as the more complaints the better as they will be on notice to act within the code.

Caller: Sophia/ Layla

Scammers. I don't have any debt but they knew my full name

Caller: panthera

if you have a debt ring the national debt hotline, google the number, they put the debt on a 3 year no contact register so that you can ignore these pieces of scum. When you get to the end of the 3 years you can renew the 3 year no contact register which then at the end of that 3 years you don't have to worry about the debt ever again as they don't have a legal right to pursue the debt anymore. The debts that these pieces of scum pursue should have never been sold to them in the first place, its a usual tactic that the major banks get rid of loans that they aren't willing to negotiate with the debt holder for a lower payment rate, I'd know as I used to work for the ANZ

Caller: Panthera finance

I think they are pretty rude, how they got my number is beyond me, also in regards to the person they were looking for, I have no personal relationship with this other person besides I work with them, but here they are calling me and a few other work colleagues, I passed on the message and the ref# to that person and they were gobsmacked into why we got called/contacted instead of them .
Apparently they search your name on google and then anyone who comments or is linked to the person of interest is their target , so they’ll stalk the sh*t outer you till they get a number or contact .
Un-Australian

Caller: Pasqual

Pascal phoned me, he knew my name and asked me about my old housemate who I haven’t lived with for at least 6 years. This housemate isn’t living in Aus anymore either. He said he found my details on the public domain but I have no idea how he would connect me to my old housemate in any capacity.

Highly strange.

Caller: Caller saying MB Finance and another I didn’t hear

Called saying MB financial, knew I owed nothing, said not interested hung up and blocked.. called MB financial to double check and yes it was a scam call

Caller: Tahlia

Called my mobile looking for my neighbour. Had his name and a street name right. I hung up but then got a text to pass onto neighbour with a reference number. I didn’t pass it on

Arrogant sh*ts, doing goose chase

Caller: Matt

He confirmed my name and then wanted me to give a message to the guy next door. I asked how he got my name and number and he said it was in the public domain. I was not happy as I have a private number and am on the do not call register. He got the name right for the guy next door and his house number. I could not figure out how he got my details until after reading these comments I have an account with the commonwealth bank. This is a breach of privacy on the banks behalf and I am going to put in a complaint with the victorian bureau. I did not tell him if the guy lived next door but agreed to give the residents a text he sent me. I have enough proof to lodge a complaint.

Same. Young push girl wanting to know who i was and personal details.
Quite rude

Caller: RJ

The caller would not give his name, details or reason for calling stating he was not at liberty to say. He rang my number asking for the contact of my husband's colleague thinking I would be dumb enough to give them anything they asked for.
