SCAM Alert! Have you had a call from an unfamiliar number starting with 0488 813?
We're getting reports of a new scam doing the rounds, with people receiving calls from a number starting with 0488 813 XYX - the last three digits differ from call to call. The calls appear to originate from a VoIP phone.
The caller introduced themselves as being from 'technical support' and requested remote access to the recipient's computer.
Several other people stated that the caller pretended to be from a government authority and requested personal information such as name, date of birth and address.
If you receive such a call and the caller is not known to you, please consider hanging up. Please be mindful of providing your personal information over the phone. If you've been scammed, contact Scamwatch - www.scamwatch.gov.au/report-a-scam
