BankSA

Caller: Bank SA

Likely asking me to make a payment on a Bank SA credit card.

Caller: Claiming to be Bank SA

I have received multiple calls from this number, every couple of months, in a pattern of 3 calls per day for approximately 3-5 business days in a row.

I have blocked the number but they still call and I get the Text Message advising the number tried to call me.

If you answer the call, it is an automated message stating "This is Bank SA with an urgent message for YOUR NAME". With further information included after this.

However, I hung up at this point and called Bank SA directly via their normal business number and spoke to a representative who advised me this is NOT one of their known/listed/legitimate telephone numbers and to report it to St George's Bank (their parent company) fraud reports and I have also reported it to Scamwatch; however the calls still continue 6 months later.

If you're experiencing calls from this number like these, I'd encourage you to report to Scamwatch and Advise St George's Bank, especially if you do not have any business or ongoing business with Bank SA (like I do) so that hopefully one day these will stop.

Hopefully this helps you.

This is a scam says they are bank sa

This is a scam have had them before and my credit card has been paid up to date. Does not sound genuine

I called back the number (08) 8166 6405 and reached vm that said I reached BankSA
