This is a scam number purporting to be from EnergyAustralia and claiming that you should ring to arrange payment for an overdue account. Don't reply!

Actually this number is Energy Australia's collection team for bills and payment and it is legitimate phone number. I just has found out. But to pay the bill, it is better to pay by logging into your Energy Australia login a/c to pay instead of paying from your mobile.

I received the following SMS:

REMINDER FROM ENERGYAUSTRALIA: Your Electricity bill is overdue. To pay $1400.00(incl. GST), go to https://energyaustralia.com.au/pay/?Ref1=xxxxxxxxxxx. If you have been impacted or isolating/ quarantining due to Covid-19, go to energyaustralia.com.au/covid-19 or call us on 1800 012 287. If paid recently, please ignore.

So sick of scammers these day... rot in hell.

Caller: via SMS

Received SMS from EnergyAust "REMINDER FROM ENERGYAUSTRALIA: Your Electricity bill is overdue. To pay $668.93 (incl. GST), go to https://www.energyaustralia.com.au/pay/$Ref1=11XXXXXXXX&Amount=666.93. If you have been impacted or isolating / quarantining due to Covid-19, go to energyaustraloa.com.au/covid-19 or call us on 1800 012 287. If paid recently, please ignore".

I would never click a URL link in a SMS and I checked the 1800 number is not on the Energy Aust website. I looked at my latest bill on the official Energy Aust App and I'm in credit and have been for over 6months due to having Solar and a battery.

This is obviously a scam!

Caller: Aus energy! Apparently!

I just posted not 2 days ago n they tried again this time using an automated machine to call me by my email name in an American accent! Pffft I k ow for a fact they wouldn’t call you get a overdue notice then an disconnection notice but they wouldn’t call! Cause they make their money back by waiting for you to call charging you a reconnection fee!
