The thought of getting phone calls from companies that you don't know, or unknown numbers can be extremely annoying.
This is especially true when they're trying to sell something and it's really subtle!
The worst part though? These random contacts could actually form part of an even more devious scheme like scams (and also attempted identity theft).
Here are 5 tips that could help you in reducing the number of unwanted callers.
1 - Register your phone number with the Do Not Call Register
When you register your phone number with the Do Not Call Register, it ensures that telemarketers are aware of your preference not to receive calls. If telemarketers continue to contact you after this point, they are breaking the law. This is because the Do Not Call List is an opt-in service which means all numbers must be voluntarily.
When you register your number, you will need to wait at least 30 days for it to take effect.
2 - Ask to be Removed from their List
When a telemarketer calls, you can simply ask them to remove you from their calling list. If the telemarketer is making unsolicited calls, they are bound by law not to call you again within three months.
3 - Block Repeat Callers
If you are getting calls from the same number and you do not know who it is, the best way to stop the calls completely is to block the number through your mobile phone.
Alternatively, you could also download an app like Truecaller which identifies unknown numbers and provides useful information regarding the caller such as reviews and more.
4 - Report Spammers and Scammers
If you receive a spam call from an unknown caller, report them immediately. You can contact ACMA's Infocentre or visit their website at acma.gov.au for more information on how to report a spam call or scam.
5 - Never Give Out Your Mobile Number Online
Whenever you are filling out online forms such as a contest entry or survey, make sure your mobile number is not specified. Your mobile number should only be provided when required and never shared with third parties unless you initiate the contact yourself.
Using these 5 tips, you should be able to reduce the inconvenience of spam callers and scammers.

Ok, so TikTok user @scottjeffreys0 has only gone and caused a very heated debate among users of the social media platform.
The dad-of-three posted a video in which he claims that we’ve been using dishwasher tablets the wrong way.
@scottjeffreys0 ♬ Doin' it Wrong - Brent Rivera
In the short video, which has been watched over 3.7 million times, Jeffreys can be seen putting a dishwasher tablet into the smaller section of the tablet holder rather than the larger section that seems dedicated for the tablet.
The caption overlay on his video reads, "Who Knew? I’ve Been Doing It Wrong Forever!".
And boy the video has caused a stir among users of the platform with over 1300 comments appearing on the post. Check out some of the comments below!
Who knew that a little dishwasher tablet could cause such an argument. Where do you put your dishwashing tablet?

A road rule quiz posted by the RACQ (Royal Automobile Club of Queensland) has stumped Aussie drivers, leaving many arguing about the correct answer of "which vehicle moves last?"
Posting the #QuizTime question, the RACQ asked:
#QuizTime - the black vehicle is about to turn right while all the other vehicles have stopped and wish to move as shown. Which vehicle moves last?
The image shows an intersection with four different colour vehicles. A black car wishing to turn right also encounters a bus and a blue car at stop signs, whilst a green car sits at a giveway sign. What order do they go in?
Some even questioned the existence of such an intersection, one saying:
"This is a silly intersection and surely would never exist. Traffic lights would be installed as a stop sign that can go before a give way doesn’t make sense. Especially travelling in a straight direction. This is called an accident waiting to happen intersection.”
Someone else agreed, saying it should be replaced with a roundabout or traffic lights. They wrote:
"This intersection shouldn’t exist put in a roundabout or traffic lights please!"
The comments section is filled with hundreds of comments with a mix of answers, from "Black blue green yellow in that order” to "Black, green, then yellow and blue” to "Black yellow green blue" but the RACQ posted the correct answer:
"#QuizAnswer - the last vehicle to move would be the blue car! Black goes first, then yellow, green, and blue as they all are facing give way or stop signs/lines and give way to the right rules apply. How did you go?”
When asked what suburb this intersection was based in, the RACQ replied with "you can find it at Albert St / Station Road, Bethania.” Although it is indeed real and based on this intersection, it seems it was altered slightly for the purpose of the quiz and illustration.
