Caller: Indian accent female Claiming she was from Telstra and that numerous people using my internet connection. Asked me to get my computer and she would check the serial number with her. Sounded legit as I could hear other people like a typical Telstra call centre in the background. I asked her to give me a number to call back so I could qualify this was legitimate. She started reassuring me it was and had a urgency on her voice… claimed it was… I interrupted her and said, if you can’t give me a number to call back to clarify this is not a scam then I won’t be giving you anything, she then just hung up on me. I don’t fall for scammers… but this was one of the better ones. Be aware!!!

Now see, this just proves my theory that other telcos like Telstra have had Optus like data breaches. How do they get your number and how do they know you are with Telstra?

Caller: 0420 040 434 Female Female foreign voice saying she was from Telstra Plus and because I was such a good customer who always paid on time I was going to get a big discount. She wanted my date of birth to confirm my identity before applying discount and I refused. She then sent an SMS for me to supply it there. My Telstra security says this web page is a scam site.

This number has called before, no message left. I just happened to answer today and it sounded like it was a call centre. They said they were from Telstra. As I don’t have any dealings with that company, I told them where to go and hung up.

Caller: Automated message - Daniel from Amazon (American accent) Second similar recorded/automated voice message I've received today, although the previous was from a different mobile number. This one started after a few seconds delay, and introduced himself as Daniel from Amazon. I haven't ordered anything from Amazon for quite a while. Sounded like a scam, so I hung up after 5 seconds and didn't let 'Daniel' get his message out!
