Caller: 6529 0157 - said her name was Natalie on the recorded message

My 85 year old dad has been getting calls from this 65290157 number for the last three weeks. He does not need the stress. Why havent they shut down this number yet? The message said it was from Centrelink and his case had been transferred to Canberra as he had not answered their calls. Luckily he did not respond and asked me to check if it was a scam. But they still keep calling him.

Caller: Scammer pretending to be Centrelink

Still using this number to call back on and still using ref no. 080456.
Why do they ring me? They reckon they know where I live. Better to just send me the money :-).

yep same tel number, same application number given 080456. when I called back they answered as centrelink and then seem to be shuffling papers and kept telling me to hold while he "looks up my information" I had told him nothing at this point but he had my phone number. When I started hassling him about who I was speaking to he hung up. I called back, the next guy who answered very gruffly and officially and when I started questioning if this really was centrelink he quickly hung up.

How come these people can go on calling from this same number with all these complaints and no-one can do anything about them. low life scammers.

Centrelink just called to say that I had not responded to their letters (hard to respond when not received) What a scam.

When I answered the phone it was an automated call saying I hadn't returned forms they sent. I have been waiting for some forms. I called back & they answered as Centrelink Head Office. He laughed & said get lost ! I hung up.

Caller type: Scam call

Caller: Scammers claiming to be Centrelink, re not responding to letters.

I just ended a call with them. I picked-up the phone to hear a woman with an automated message, a woman with an Australian accent telling me that the claim for an increase in benefits had been sent to head office in Canberra as I had not responded to many letters. I rang back the given number. I'm not on Centrelink. I have a parent in a nursing home. I told them my name and my mothers. Then the guy with a Mari accent said, "Centrelink won't give us money they take all the money". " I don't want to scam you, you sound nice, then asked rather personal questions, wanted to talk about the size of his appendage and made comments about white women".
After I challenged him, (we have a silent number,), he tried telling me he was calling from Honolulu in Canberra!!!!! Then claimed to be a Nigerian scammer.

I hung-up when the music came on, only to ring-back to make sure I'd rung the right number. It was engaged. I could hear others in the background as if they are working out of a call centre.

Hang-up on these people, they are NOT Centrelink. They can't tell you any of your loved one's details. Notice to Telstra, I won't be paying for these phone calls, as there are enough messages on this string to see they have been operating for some time. The number they told me to ring back on was (02) 652 90 157. If you get one of these calls, hang-up quick!!! .

Caller: David Abraham allegedly with Centre Link Canberra

Same as the others transferred to Canberra, etc but we had to purchase $400.00 worth of Google Gifts from Woolworths (not Coles).
That was when we realised this was a scam. We have reported this to Centre Link. Interesting to see if they do anything about it

Apparently i had not responded to any of their correspondence concerning my application to centerlink for additional benefits. They told me that because I had not answered to correspondence that It has been sent to the Canberra Ofiice.
