OK, but source?
Australian population in 2016 born in China was ~500k. If you assume that the majority of this was happening within that population, if it's 50k "informants", that would mean it's 1 in every 10 people. If you further limited it to students, it would be even more than that.
If this were actually known to be happening at such high frequency, I would expect that Australia would know about it & do something about it.

Most of the news, almost all the time are sensationalist nonsense like this. 10 years ago it was complaining about the Lebanese then the vietnamese and then finally its the turn of Chinese. If you want to experience the US 60's style racism go to Australia. Imagine a place in US named like this https://goo.gl/maps/aoUdGWvFmGcmV7f29 https://goo.gl/maps/aoUdGWvFmGcmV7f29

The government doesn't do anything about it because Chinese students are a cash cow and every university in Australia as well as the property market would implode without that sweet cash
