Posted on September 21, 2020 Caller type: Scam call Location: Czech Republic
I got a call from the same 'business name', with the same MO, but using the number 0488 825 480.
Caller did not want to clearly say her business name, so I had to ask several times (red flag #1). She said she was calling about superannuation and that the government was going to take away my insurance (red flag #2).
As well as my phone number, the caller had my name. She wanted more personal information to see if I 'qualified' (red flag #3), and when I said I was concerned about giving it out to someone I did not know, she threatened to hang up if I don't just give her the information (red flag #4). I said I would answer as soon as I finish looking up their ABN to check she's legit, and then she hung up on me (red flag #5). A real business would have waited for that, so I'm 100% sure this is a scam.

Superannuation review co' - when I asked for their abn, the # supplied wasn't an 11 digit # and when I mentioned this; they hung up on me. I happened to note the quickly rattled off # supplied and did a search as I suspected it was an ACN they supplied (which if they hadn't hung up on me they could have explained; idiot!) I looked up the acn (which anyone can do via; https://abr.business.gov.au/) and it does appear to be a registered Aust Co, however; given the rapidness of terminating the call upon a query it would lead me to suspect that their intentions may not be so legit. They have also changed their name numerous times in fairly quick succession which can also be construed as suss. I've blocked their # to be safe!
