Definitely a scam. Challenged the scammer re: ‘unauthorised BOQ’ transactions’ and they promptly hung up. Anyone who thinks this is legitimate is a fool.

Caller: Citibank

100% Citibank

Caller: It’s a scam and Citibank have confirmed it today.

As per others this number purports to be from Citibank. Call the number on the back of the card and Citi will tell you that they have not called you. Complete and utter scam attempt.

Caller: Citibank

Legitimate call from Citibank. They left an automated message for me to call the fraud team back on a different number. When I googled the number it was indeed the correct number displayed on the citibank website for their fraud team. Called and they were querying a transaction I had made the day prior. I was trying to buy a gift card at Woolworths which had declined.

This is a scammer, I called my credit card company and they advised that there was no call records, no notes on my file and the number is no theirs

Caller: Coles Credit Card

Got a call, and did not answer it right away. After quick research to confirm not scam, I picked up their next call. They contacted me because I applied for a credit card. They know details based on the docs I submitted, and just confirmed a few things.

Caller: Coles credit card

Coles credit card calling about unauthorized transaction

Caller: Citibank

Legitimate call from Citibank regarding checks for a credit card verification check

Caller: Suncorp

This number left a message saying they were fro
Suncorp and asked me to call customer service about my credit card. I called the number on the website rather than this number and they confirmed they had a question about a transaction.

Had a missed call from from this number and a text message to phone a THREE DIGIT NUMBER, realised this was a scam Did phone search, saw the comments from other people, a number of them are regarding Master card from a few different banks. I have recently contacted a bank regarding a Master card.
DO NOT REPLY THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A SCAM. I HAVE BLOCKED THE NUMBER.

Caller: Virgin Money

Called regarding Virgin credit card - they correctly confirmed by application # prior to sharing any details.

Caller: Supposedly MasterCard

Got a call from this number. Left a message, transcript claimed suspicious activity and gave 2 numbers to call. One number made no sense but the other seemed possible. Went to the credit card website and checked the contact numbers, which were different. Called on the legitimate number and checked...
NO suspicious activity, NO record of a text message being sent.
Nothing odd showing on my account when I checked (before calling) and no unread messages in my account.

Caller: (02) 8027 2000

Pretended they were from citiibank re a cc application. I made the mistake and gave my info. I got scammed…
Citibank sucks for having my details leak in the first place

Likely the beginning of a scam. Sounds legitimate at first to gain your trust and if you answer, they'll tag you as an active phone number and will call you more from different scam numbers. Best approach is to ignore, or contact your bank directly from their website. Banks usually notify you of suspicious matters via text or email. No bank will hire a call centre to call their customers every single time there's a "suspicious" activity - stupid way to operate.

Caller: Claimed to be Coles Mastercard Security

This call was really creepy.
The caller claimed to be Coles Mastercard Security.
He asked for me by name, and identified correctly the date and amount of my last legitimate transaction (at a dental surgery).
He asked if I had a transaction the previous day with Employment Hero. I said "no" but said I would check.
He said to call back on the number on the back of my card.
I checked my account and there were no suspicious transactions.
When I called Coles Mastercard using the number on the back of my card, they had no knowledge of the suspicious transaction, and there was no record on my file from the security team.
So the call was either a scam or extremely bad behaviour by Coles.
But how on earth did the caller know my phone number, name, and my last transaction?
The caller didn't attempt to extract any information from me.
Was it just an attempt to soften me up for another call where they would need "urgent action to protect your account"?
Or will they put the attack into Coles? They know phone number (and can spoof it), name, my last transaction (and presumably the card number).
I'm really concerned about this.

Caller: Suncorp

Exactly the same scenario. He was concerned a zero transaction on my account. Be careful. He knew the last 4 digits of my wife's card, and the transaction was made from her phone. So why ring me.

Caller: Processing CC application

I had submitted a Qantas CC application the day prior, online.
I didn't answer the call & he left a voicemail stating the call was relating to my Qantas CC application with a reference number.
I don't know what that reference number related to and the 1300 call back number was not the number that is on the Qantas CC website so I called to number on the website.
I think it was genuine.

Claims they're from Citibank but jokes of them, I don't own a Citibank account. They leave a muffled voice message to call them back on 1300 304 387 on 2 occasions. Weirdly enough, the first time I got a voice message and the 387 was very muffled, and the second voice message from a different caller left a voice message also mumbling the 387. Whatever the number is, is besides the point but these scammers have been so desperate. These reviews saying it's real are lying. BLOCK!

Caller: Citibank

I had applied for a suncorp credit card and submtted docs as part of this yesterday, today i got a call from this number claiming to be citibank and calling on behalf of the credit card verification team, they manages cards for coles, virgin, suncorp etc. (I asked the lady to give me context on what she does and why shes calling so she mentioned all that) - i was very suspicious but provided my reference number anyway to see where it goes - she then redirected me to the suncorp team. Once i was transferred I was relieved because I knew the lady I was transferred to was infact an employee for suncorp and she assured me that it wasnt a scam so all good. it was a standard part of verification.

Caller: Citibank

This number is used by Citibank, as the outgoing caller ID number when they call you. They should generally leave you a voicemail with a 1300 number to call back on, which you can then verify the number is correct online. My call was from Citi's fraud prevention department. Suggest you call Citi bank on their official phone numbers.
