Posing as a westpac service. Requests confirmation for alleged limit increase. - AnonymousOctober 9, 2017SMSAustralia
This is not spam. It is the Westpac verification service. - AnonymousDecember 17, 2017Scam callAustralia
this is definite scam. Rang number and recorded message says this number has been disconnected. those saying it was correct westpa number are connected to the scam and trying to trick you into following message details and you loose $500. - 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. - AnonymousJuly 23, 2015SMSAustralia

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 - AnonymousJanuary 14, 2016SMSAustralia
