Someone used this number (0436 597 000) to send the SMS message below (Monday June 17, 2019, 09:55AM):

"Your First Home Owner Grant means you must move into your home within 12 months of settlement. If you can't make the deadline call State Revenue Office 13 21 61"

Now, is that 13 21 61 number legit, or routed to another scam number???

Telstra planned internet outage alert.

Caller: Telstra

I reported this number to Telstra as a possible scam SMS reporting a planned outage. Telstra emailed back to me - it is a legitimate number and SMS advising in advance of a planned outage.

Caller: 0436 597 000 "Moushimi, your Connection manager from Telstra" !!!!!

Definitely dodgy! Message left from abovenamed, "just confirming that your NBN appointment is booked...etc...28th May"; I am already connected to NBN and have no such appointment. The message also advised that "Your presence is not needed" !!! Yeah, right! Other obvious spelling errors. Totally suss.

filed a complain at telstra support regarding nuisance calls and hacked mobile number. I received a text from this number asking me to check my mail as they have proposed reesolution regarding my complain. I tried calling the number but said the number is not connected.

Caller: UniSuper

Legitimate SMS alerting me to the fact that I had an upcoming deduction from my super account. I called UniSuper and it appears that I had forgotten my life insurance payment comes out (only set this up last year). The wording in the SMS is a bit clumsy (read like scam), which I why I looked it up on here.

0436 597 000 I see above and your date. I have been text this number nearly everyday. I have blocked it but it still manages to get through, I am sending message 19/1/2023 and I notice the above message is dated June 17 2019!. Why isn8t this number deconmissioned as a scam number. Seriously telcos do something about it. I have had enough!

Caller: No Name

Bombarded with Txt messages & messages left on Mobile 101 service saying from Telstra (One message at 7.15 pm) Do not think Telstra would call at that time. All about to upgrade my NBN. Very heavy Indian accents. AS it so happens I have just recently had a problem with NBN and was to be passed on to a Supervisor to handle, BUT not to Upgrade. So, I feel these SMS & Txt messages and left 101 messages are All Scams. Even had a Txt to say would be calling & to be available. They rang my landline but no message left (from (03) 9319 2000)

Supposed SMS from Telstra re a complaint. I haven't made a complaint but just yesterday sent them a fake email supposedly from them. Strange coincidence? or is a scammer accessing telstra compalints?

Most likely a scam, yes, as
1) the message does not apply
2) it is not addressed to an individual'
3) the SRO would most likely either reach out via email, mail or phone call and not txt out of the blue
Blocked the number straight away

Supposed call from RevenueSA re home builder rebate. Suspect scam.

Text message informing me that my parcel can’t be delivered as Customs fees (2.99 AUD) haven’t been paid with a link to go to for further information.

Textbook scam.

Caller: 0436 597 025

Received a text “Your parcel can’t be delivered, custom fees (2.99 AUD) have not been paid.” Following an auspost link. I’m not silly enough to click that when I haven’t ordered anything.

Caller: 0436 597 041

Said I owed customs money for a package . Saying they were auspost . Straight out scammer

Caller: Scammer

Claiming to be from Telstra. Weird because I just spoke to Telstra about my slow internet last night and the caller wanted to talk about outages. Called Telstra and confirmed it wasn't them. The timing is very suspicious.

Caller: 0436 597 000

Received a message saying "Thanks so much :) :) :)
No idea who this is, but looking at this page it's clear it's a scam - glad I never responded.

Someone used this number claiming to be Telstra.
Sent a message prior to calling
Clearly a fraud.

Definitely a scam, blocked the number but continue to receive SMS asking me to send an email to settle my complaint with Telstra. Received an email asking the same and email reported as spam and blocked. DELETE DELETE DELETE.
