Expert Opinion

During a quiet afternoon in Sydney, reports of calls from this number surfaced as deeply suspicious. Multiple accounts describe garbled voicemails, Indian-accented callers posing as 'Max', and PayPal fraud alerts—classic hallmarks of a scam operation. When recipients call back, telecoms confirm the line's disconnected, a red flag for spoofed numbers. Background noise and inappropriate chit-chat add to the unease. Block immediately and report to authorities like the ACCC to curb these nuisances. Never share personal details; verify claims directly with official sources. Staying vigilant protects your data and peace of mind.
