Some real estate dickhead just rang my mobile (which is not advertised anywhere) saying they were “just in the area” and wanted to do an appraisal on a house we own in <suburb name>.

It’s an agency we don’t use for any purpose, have never used for any purpose, and have never approached for any reason.

Is there some sort of legal issue with some smarmy sales knob looking up property owner details and cold calling them?

Makes me feel all gross that their grubby mitts are pawing through my deets somewhere in the hope of being able to stick a tongue up my bum and get a taste of some back door cash.

    Or you can always sign their mobile up to services. Usually you’ll find it on a billboard next to the mugshot of them sporting a shit-eating grin.

    Or just in my recent call history… Looked it up and they’re the “founder” of the company along with like 4 other people. All claiming equal rights. I wonder if they fought over who got their name first?

    And they do indeed have a shit-eating grin. All of them. Why do they always look like that?

      Damn, they called from their own number? I don’t know why I’m surprised lol. At least you know you can block it and that’s probably that.

      You can also write a complaint to the other four founders and reference your formal complaint to the gov in it. I’m sure that’ll stir the pot if there’s any power struggles currently going on 👍
