A woman with an Indian accent claimed to be from Telstra's Technical Support, asked for the account holder, and hung up when I requested her name and account number. I've blocked the number after numerous similar scams.
Telstra Scam Alert: Hang Up Now

Expert Opinion
Verify caller identity immediately before sharing details. This call matches common Telstra impersonation scams, where fraudsters pose as tech support to extract personal info. The hang-up when challenged is a red flag—legit companies don't do that. Block the number and report to Telstra via their official app or site. Enable call screening on your phone to filter unknowns. If they call back, don't engage; hang up and contact authorities like the ACCC if pressured. Stay vigilant; these scams spike recently, targeting Aussie telco users for account takeovers.
