I mistakenly believed this to be a scam after reading the comment here but as it turned out the calls are legitimate & from AGL. When a bill is a few days overdue rather than post you a reminder they have this automated the service as a "reminder".

Certainly a worrying trend if this is as said a scam. The calls (three within 5 hours) "claim" to be from AGL. An automated voice ask you to confirm your "read out" first & second name, it then goes on to ask you to input details such as date of birth.

Having read here that it is a scam I did not proceed further. I can only assume it is an information harvesting scam. It certainly sounds convincing & is very professional & high tech. Maybe someone can confirm this is a scam as it most certainly appears to be?

They were asking for my d.o.b, and they also knew my birth year and wanted me to confirm the day and month. I entered different day and month but the automated voice said it does not match their record!!! What da!!!! Hobos got all

This number keeps calling - any ideas?

Scam automated call reportedly from 'AGL'. Ignore it. They also send SMS/TEXT from 0416 905 141 saying Gas or Electricity bill(s) are 'overdue' & please call 1300 658 955. Classic scam.
