Caller: 0488 826 170

Received text asking me to click on https://hotdoc.com/.......... didn't open the link. Checked number on Reverse Australia, various comments Positive & Negative, tried phoning number, recording said this number was not connected. Probably a scam as David Aug 29, 2021 suggests.

Caller: 0488 826 170

This number might be legit HotDoc reminder but was followed less than three hours later by 0400 906 725, sms read; “message 4du you : & https://www.healthgo.co.za/k/?74u9-retmzn”, obviously a tacked on scam from Zambia. I have deleted the HotDoc app and will return to booking appointments on phone.

Sent photos to daughter. Would not send. Next day photos had sent to x 2 scam numbers via Google messages.

I have contacted Telstra to remove these false links 6 months ago. I would not be going to Doctors in Queensland. I live in Tasmania.

Caller: Amazon yeh right

Called re Amazon account Definitely a Scam I do not have an Account

Looks like scam to me.
Pretty obvious from the link.
The url ends with .com
Should be a .com.au in Australia.
Also called the number and it was phoney.

Definite scam - I have no GP bookings.
Exact message received: Thanks for booking your at Warrawong General Practice, to receive your prescriptions, certificates, referrals and results please download the MyPractice app by following the link http://onelink.to/z7guzg

I forward all these messages to Scamwatch's Spam SMS line - 0429 999 888

Caller: It was a txt so red flag #1

Got a txt, saying I need to update my info before I can attend my appointment. RED FLAG #2

Well anyone with half a brain knows this kind of request doesn't happen over a txt message, let alone I don't have an appointment nor have I made one. RED FLAG #3

SCAM I TELL YOU, and stop giving personal information away just because you get a txt mess. Lift your game ppl.

Caller: Hot Doc

It's from HotDoc that a lot of doctor's surgeries are using to confirm appts now.

Phishing for medical info

I got a text with a link telling me I need to fill out a form before my Covid appointment.

I don't have a covid appointment! So I think this is a SCAM.

Text from medical clinic to cancel my appointment, when I checked with the medical clinic, yes my appointment had been cancelled but they stated the text was not sent from that number, so always check!

Scam

Caller: Text from ?

This web page is useless.
Half the replies say Legit and half say Scam ?
My text message simply says, "Hi David, click htt"
The number it came from was 0488 826 170.
I do have a doctors appointment tomorrow but that number is not the number on his web page.
If it was from a legitimate company, why don't they tell me who they are and why thety are contacting me ?
I recommend, DELETE immediately.
Ring your Doctors Surgery direct.

medical appointment reminder

Phishing text faking a COVID form. Don’t click on the link.

Caller: HotDoc

Medical appointment service

this number txted covid test result to my son's phone - POSITIVE result from our medical clinic. Was false, txt very similar to actual txt from doc with link. Will possibly become a police matter.

Received text message confirming 2nd Vaccination appointment tomorrow but asking me to register and asking for medicare card number and other details. Some difficulties on the site like not accepting some of my responses or taking a long time to respond!
Am enquiring if this is a possible scam as when I rang the number I was told it does not exist!
