Posing as a westpac service. Requests confirmation for alleged limit increase. - AnonymousOctober 9, 2017SMSAustralia

Verification code from Westpac for payment. - PeterOctober 6, 2015SMSAustralia
This is not a scam. It is part of Westpac's 2-stage verification of payment requests. I log into my account, tell Westpac to make a certain payment. Within a minute or two I receive an SMS from this phone number number which shows a six-digit (I think) code. I then type this code into the payment transaction that is not yet complete. Once this code has been verified by Westpac's computer, the transaction becomes authorised and is implemented. Quite a secure system - a hacker would have to have hacked into my account, and also stolen my mobile, to complete the transaction. - Kevin MDecember 31, 2018SMSAustralia
It is definitely a scam even 6 years later they are still using the same phony mobile number. They rang me on my unlisted number which the bank has no knowledge of so whoever reckons it is not a scam go ahead and lose your money - RikNovember 25, 2016SMSAustralia

westpac code sms - AnonymousNovember 13, 2019Financial servicesAustralia
Caller: Westpac
If someone has a Westpac account and transfers money to another account this is the number that they receive a text from with a code you need to enter to confirm the transaction. If you receive this but dont bank with westpac chances are you may have a recycled number that is on someones westpac file but out of date or when setting up their account they accidently miskeyed their mobile number or accidently gave the wrong number the phone number at the bottom is what you should ring if you receive this text by error and if you google it, it is a genuine westpac phone number - AnonymousNovember 8, 2019UnknownAustralia
