The caller, believed to be a young child, stated there was a fire in the Mooroopna area with people injured.
Police, Country Fire Authority and ambulance personnel attended an address in McLennan St, Mooroopna just before 11 am and found that the information given was incorrect.
A police spokesperson confirmed there was no fire, nor people injured.
The News understands emergency services attended a number of other addresses in the Mooroopna area which were identified as being possibly linked to the initial call.
Despite this, nothing was located at any of these addresses and the call was eventually deemed to be a hoax.
Police are currently investigating the call and where it originated from.
An ESTA spokesperson said hoax calls involved false reports of emergencies which they said wasted triple zero and emergency services resources.
“What might seem like harmless fun calling triple zero could delay a call from someone in a life-threatening situation,” they said.
“Our call-takers understand calling triple zero can often be an outlet for people who are lonely or anxious and have nobody else to talk to — our call-takers answer all calls and are empathic to callers — but it’s important to remember that triple zero is for emergencies only.”
Anyone with information about the incident is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
