Expert Opinion
In Melbourne's bustling suburbs last evening, reports surfaced of deceptive calls and texts from this number, mimicking trusted institutions like Commbank and the Australian Bureau of Statistics. Scammers often pose as banks to extract personal details or push fake verification codes, leading to potential fraud. One account details an Indian-accented caller abruptly hanging up when questioned, while others note silent lines or unreachable callbacks. Hang up immediately if you receive such unsolicited contacts—never share info. Forward suspicious messages to your bank and report to authorities like Scamwatch for tracking. Staying vigilant curbs these telecom nuisances effectively.
