Caller: Scammer I had an SMS from a number starting with the country code 44 The SMS was pretending to be PayPal and if I didn’t agree with the payment I could call 61 1800953494 to check it out……..mmm straight to the PayPal app. Nothing. Contacted through the app and told to send a screenshot shot to phishing @ paypal.com. The SMS looked good, nothing to click, and make a call to an Aussie number……they are getting clever.
