The woman, who was not identified, objected to a recent price hike by her local drug dealer.

"Completely offended, the woman demanded that police investigate this 'outrageous' price hike," Northern Territory police said in a Facebook post about the call.

She hung up when authorities asked for more details.

"If you know a drug dealer who is ripping you off, give us a call, we'd love to help," police said.

Australia legalized marijuana for medical use last year. Recreational marijuana use remains illegal.
