Text received from this number: Hello. This is Ambulance Victorias SMS Service. We are trying to contact you regarding your 000 call. Please make your mobile phone available to take our call

Needless to say I'm not in Victoria and I didn't call 000

Just got a text from the same number claiming to be from Telstra 0435 697 000) about Opticom, with a link to the Telstra app or a request to reply 'YES' to the text. Thing is, I have been phoning Telstra about my plan with Opticomm and they only deal with me if I initiate a phone call (I'm already a Telstra customer). This text seems dodgy since Telstra has been texting me anyway and the Telstra texts don't reveal a number and never have a link.

Caller: 0436 597 000

Received a phising SMS "Will you move into your home within 12 months of construction or settlement to meet your grant conditions? If yes, ignore. If no, call SRO Victoria on 13 21 61"

13 21 61 seems legit from SRO Victoria.

But NOT 0436 597 000! Scammers could be hoping you to call the regular number 0436 597 000 instead. BEWARE

Caller: rude

0436 597 000

Text message supposedly from 'Canon Camera Service' saying my product has been received for repair. Please call 13 13 83 to provide email address for ongoing updates. So definitely a scam

"Will you move into your home within 12 months of construction or settlement to meet your grant conditions? If yes, ignore. If no, call SRO Victoria on 13 21 61."

Caller: UniSuper

Legitimate SMS alerting me to the fact that I had an upcoming deduction from my super account. I called UniSuper and it appears that I had forgotten my life insurance payment comes out (only set this up last year). The wording in the SMS is a bit clumsy (read like scam), which I why I looked it up on here.

Caller: No Name

Bombarded with Txt messages & messages left on Mobile 101 service saying from Telstra (One message at 7.15 pm) Do not think Telstra would call at that time. All about to upgrade my NBN. Very heavy Indian accents. AS it so happens I have just recently had a problem with NBN and was to be passed on to a Supervisor to handle, BUT not to Upgrade. So, I feel these SMS & Txt messages and left 101 messages are All Scams. Even had a Txt to say would be calling & to be available. They rang my landline but no message left (from (03) 9319 2000)

Supposed SMS from Telstra re a complaint. I haven't made a complaint but just yesterday sent them a fake email supposedly from them. Strange coincidence? or is a scammer accessing telstra compalints?

Most likely a scam, yes, as
1) the message does not apply
2) it is not addressed to an individual'
3) the SRO would most likely either reach out via email, mail or phone call and not txt out of the blue
Blocked the number straight away

Supposed call from RevenueSA re home builder rebate. Suspect scam.

Text message informing me that my parcel can’t be delivered as Customs fees (2.99 AUD) haven’t been paid with a link to go to for further information.

Textbook scam.

Caller: 0436 597 025

Received a text “Your parcel can’t be delivered, custom fees (2.99 AUD) have not been paid.” Following an auspost link. I’m not silly enough to click that when I haven’t ordered anything.

Caller: 0436 597 041

Said I owed customs money for a package . Saying they were auspost . Straight out scammer

Caller: Scammer

Claiming to be from Telstra. Weird because I just spoke to Telstra about my slow internet last night and the caller wanted to talk about outages. Called Telstra and confirmed it wasn't them. The timing is very suspicious.

Caller: 0436 597 000

Received a message saying "Thanks so much :) :) :)
No idea who this is, but looking at this page it's clear it's a scam - glad I never responded.

Someone used this number claiming to be Telstra.
Sent a message prior to calling
Clearly a fraud.
