Received a few SMS followed by a final one to call 1800 290 955:
Hi, as requested, we've added a Full Authority contact to your account. You can view and manage the contacts on your account by downloading the My Telstra app and logging in with your Telstra ID. If you didn't make this request, please call our Fraud team on 1800 290 955

Checked my TelstraID notifications and these messages were not on there, so it appears these SMS did not originate from Telstra.

Do not call the number!

Text through the official Telstra contact claiming that an extra profile had been added to the account and to call this number, got told by Telstra themselves that this number is being disconnected soon. Ignore all requests asking you to call this number.

i received an email requesting to call this number if i am not porting my mobile away. in fact, i was porting to another carrier. so this is not a scam, if you get it from an email/sms.

Received an email which looked very official purporting to be from Telstra saying they'd received a request for a new simcard for my phone and to call them ASAP if I had not placed an order...tricky huh?
