Caller: Scammer I received a call from this number which was flagged to be from Kalkallo, Victoria (I am based in Sydney and have no reason to receive a call from interstate). I did not pick up, and they left a voice message with those female automated voices:
"Hi this is a call from Amazon to inform you that your Amazon Prime account will be auto-renewed for 79 point 99 from your bank account so enjoy using Amazon Prime services, or if you want to discontinue or unsubscribe services then speak to our Amazon service manager by pressing 1."
I don't have an Amazon Prime account so this is most definitely a scam. Some brief research showed me that this made news headlines last year: https://www.9news.com.au/national/amazon-prime-scam-warning-fake-callers-targeting-australians/65789c53-28ac-4819-b419-153a8be12730
