Unknown calls from Austria

In Austria an unexpected ring from an 0664 or 0676 number might be a plumber returning your call, or it might be the opening line of a fraud. Police regularly warn about the Neffentrick, where callers pretend to be a nephew or grandchild in trouble, and about fake officers who claim a relative has caused an accident. Robocalls in English announcing a problem with your identity, supposedly from Europol or the federal police, also turn up. Students, seasonal workers in the ski resorts and newcomers in Vienna look up numbers to separate these from calls by employers, Magistrat offices and delivery drivers who often phone ahead.

Common phone scams in Austria

Neffentrick and shock calls

A caller pretends to be a nephew, grandchild or a doctor and says a relative has had an accident or been arrested. Bail or hospital costs must be paid immediately, and a courier will pick up the money. Austrian police stress that they never demand cash at the door; hang up and phone the relative directly.

Recorded "Europol" or police announcements

An automated voice, often in English or broken German, claims your identity has been used in a crime and asks you to press 1. The person who answers then pushes for personal data or a transfer to a "safe account". No Austrian or European authority opens an investigation by robocall.

Fake parcel and payment SMS

Text messages claim a parcel cannot be delivered or a small customs fee is outstanding, with a link to a lookalike site. The page collects card details or installs malware on Android phones. Track deliveries only through the official app or website of the carrier you actually ordered with.

Report scam calls in Austria

Unsolicited advertising calls can be reported to the regional telecommunications office (Fernmeldebüro), and the RTR offers guidance and contact points for number misuse. Fraud attempts belong with the police on 133 or any police station. The Watchlist Internet project collects and publishes current scam warnings.

Stop unwanted calls

Austria has no public do-not-call register for phone numbers. The Telecommunications Act forbids advertising calls without the recipient's prior consent, so unsolicited sales calls are unlawful regardless of any list.

Austria number lookup FAQ

Which Austrian numbers are mobiles?+

Austrian mobile numbers start with 06 followed by two more digits, for example 0664, 0676 or 0699. Internationally they appear as +43 664 and so on. Since numbers can be ported, the code does not prove which of A1, Magenta or Drei the caller uses now.

Who called me from +43 1?+

+43 1 is the area code for Vienna. The call came from a landline or a business switchboard in the capital, which could be a government office, a company or a private household. A Vienna number displayed on your phone can still be spoofed, so stay cautious if the caller asks for money.

Do I have to pay for calling back an 0810 or 0820 number?+

Yes, these are service numbers with capped, regulated charges rather than free lines. Calls from mobiles may cost more than from landlines depending on your plan. Genuinely free numbers in Austria begin with 0800.
