They ring constantly and never leave a message. I can only presume they are telemarketers or scammers - DVJanuary 21, 2021Scam callAustralia
Caller: Jatesh
He said he was from Optus, and would like to offer me 30% off my bill for the next three months on phone + internet due to COVID. Asked for my DOB, I asked for his name and position in Optus because I said I'd like to ensure it wasn't a scam first. He got defensive and said "WHO told you it was a scam?!" I said nobody, but that I don't give my personal details over the phone without confirming who I am giving them too, and that I'd like to call Optus then call him back. He sarcastically said "Fine then, do that." Then hung up on me. I called Optus and they confirmed they were offering no such deal, and that anything like that would be listed on their website.

These guys are calling and offering a 50% discount on your utility bills. Please DO NOT fall into their trap. They will first pay your bill and show you the paid screenshot. They will then ask you to deposit 50% of your bill into their account. Once you pay them, they will cancel their payment to whatever utility bill you asked them to pay. After that, you will be left with an unpaid bill and 50% of your bill gone towards them. These are SCAMMERS. Here's an article about them:

Claiming to be Vodafone and said they’re doing a “promotion” and that because my number is with Vodafone, I’ve won a free iPhone 12 with free shipping. They can’t even scam properly LOL. - SarahJanuary 24, 2021UnknownAustralia

they called me pretending to be Optus. they used this platform to say that I get a new iPhone for 50 dollars including the monthly plan. so basically I get a new phone. they say that in order to proceed with the order I have to give them the date of birth and other confirmation information such as your service number. they have name name from the moment they call they. Further they also managed to change contact email though a message code which Optus gave me. after that they used to code to reset my email details and managed to place and incomplete order. They presumably want to order a phone and send it to their address - DJanuary 7, 2021Scam callNetherlands
I didn't answer and rejected the call as the number was from another state. Immediately I saw two Private Call attempts which my phone auto rejected.
Not giving up they tried again the next second with a bizzare number so I answered to humour them.
The caller claims to be from Vodafone and wanted to give me a free phone if I did x,y and z.

Caller: Woman Indian accent
THESE PEOPLE ARE SERIOUS FRAUDSTERS! They tricked me into giving them my date of birth after telling me they were from Optus, they knew my name, my plan details and when my plan finished and said they were offering me an ongoing discount. They changed my contact details on my Optus account and suspended my text messages, they ordered a new iPhone. It's only that I got suspicious moments after the call and called Optus to check if they were legitimate that the order was stopped and my account information repaired and new passwords put in place. I don't know the level of detail they now have of me and whether I'll fall victim to further identity fraud. BE CAREFUL, VICTORIA POLICE IS SEEKING THESE SCAMMERS! - AnonymousFebruary 16, 2021UnknownAustralia

Indian scammers, calling selling solar panels. Well actually trying to scam me out of the federal gov incentive. They need to get smarter, I would have received at least 20 of these calls in the last 12 months. Block the number as they are clearly moving from one scam to the next.
