I’m on the 'Do Not Call Register' and it makes absolutely no difference to the scammers that are calling from O/S.
They are safe in the knowledge no-one is going to chase them, you can’t trap their number and complain to them and if you could they don’t listen anyway and the Australian authorities are hamstrung when it comes to being able to exert any local laws against them.
The 'Do Not Call Register' is only for effective against the honest local cold caller, not O/S scammers.
