Expert Opinion
Approach calls from unknown numbers with skepticism, especially those urging immediate action. These reports highlight patterns of fraudulent tactics, like impersonating companies such as Telstra or DHL to create panic over shutdowns, unclaimed packages, or unsigned documents. No legitimate entity demands instant compliance without verification. Hang up promptly and contact the organization directly using official channels. Block the number and report to authorities like the ACCC or your carrier to curb these scams. Stay vigilant—verify caller identity before sharing info, and use call-blocking apps for protection.
