Caller: Indian scam call

Fully dodgy. Block!@

called as immigration department asked if english or chinese press option. otherwise could not understand what they were saying and they closed the call.

This call showed as coming from Sydney, NSW. When I answered there was a long period of silence, so I terminated the call. I had received a scam call (from a call centre) about an hour earlier from a number which was just one digit different, so I would say this was also a scam attempt and the scammers are using a block of numbers for their scamming purposes.

Received a call from this number today, he said his name was Paul and didn’t give a company name, and said it was about my electricity and am I the bill payer. It sounded like he was at a train station. I asked how he got my number and he said it’s in my database. When I challenged him saying that it was clearly a breach of privacy he said “oh like that”. I said well, it clearly is a breach of privacy since I haven’t provided my contact information or be able to authorise any calls. He said oh like that again and hung up. Clearly scamming or been sold contact information.
