Expert Opinion
Ever wonder why that unfamiliar number keeps popping up in your call log? Most reports link +61861867585 to fraudulent scripts that pretend to be e‑bay, Visa, or a bank, aiming to harvest personal data or push bogus payments. These calls rarely leave a genuine voicemail and often end abruptly, a classic tell‑tale of a scam operation. To stay safe, avoid sharing any account details, hang up immediately, and add the number to your blocked list or report it to your carrier. Regularly review your statements for unauthorized charges and enable two‑factor authentication wherever possible. A quick verification step can stop the scam before it reaches your inbox.
