The number +6498025536 from New Zealand appears in multiple user reported sources as a dubious or nuisance caller, with indications of potential spam activity. Publicly available chatter suggests caution when considering answering or returning calls to this number. 1. Ownership/Type: The number is a non geographic NZ number associated with Auckland region dialing prefix. Public listings classify it as a mobile/landline like NZ number rather than a clearly identified business or official institution. 2. Online descriptions: Several NZ centric spam/phone lookup sites and community reports label similar numbers as scams or harassment calls, often with no voicemail and warnings from users. 3. Scam/Phishing/Telemarketing status: Patterns in reports indicate potential telemarketing or scam activity, including unsolicited calls, prompts for sensitive actions, or requests that could lead to account or data compromise. However, evidence tied specifically to this exact number remains limited to user generated reports and cannot confirm a unified scam type. 4. Public exposure/leak status: The number appears in public facing scam/lookup platforms and discussion threads where users share experiences with unknown NZ numbers. It seems exposed in public directories and forums, though there is no indication of a formal data breach or widely leaked dataset tied to this exact number. 5. Advice on answering: Given mixed reports and the risk signals common to spam/telemarketing numbers in the region, answering or returning calls is not advisable unless a verified, legitimate contact is known. Based on available reports, treating it as potentially unwanted is prudent.

Received call today from telephone number 09 802 5536, which seems that it could be a phishing scam. The caller claimed to be from the NZ Business/Economic Development Association (or similar) and was pushing for information about our business, and whether or not we were planning to move premises. When asked to send an email instead, the caller hung up.

This individual has called our office several times, typically in the afternoon, same thing every time, asking whether we’ve found a new location to move to. The calls seem suspicious and may be an attempt to gather information, potentially as part of a scam.
