The NDIS calls from a “NO CALLER ID” number, but ANYONE can do that, so you need to make sure.
Always double-check who’s calling.
Protect yourself by not sharing personal information unless you’re 100% sure who you’re talking to.
If you’re unsure, ask them to email you, or hang up and call the NDIS on their official number 1800 800 110. They can let you know if the call was real.
If you think you received a scam call, report it to the NDIS, police and Scamwatch.
Stay safe, stay informed, and remember – it’s okay to question and double-check!
When it comes to your information, it’s important to stay in control.
You have a right to ask your providers about how they’re keeping your information safe.
Ask them to explain their privacy policy. Make sure they are doing all the checks before sharing your information.
You have the power to say who can and who cannot access your details.
Remember, your information should never be shared without your permission.
