Yep got a call tonight. They are silly because I've got Telstra Call Guardian 302 Mk2 which blocks these types of calls. Only allowed calls will ever get through! I laugh every time such a scam is logged.

Let the call go through to voice mail as I didn't recognise it. The man said "Hello, hello, hello" then hung up.
Sounded scammy to me.
