They claimed to be from the Australian Cyber Security Department and said they were following up on suspicious activity on my internet. Obviously bogus, they hung up when I called them scammers.
Scam Posing as Aussie Security?

Expert Opinion
Impersonating officials from the Australian Cyber Security Department to flag bogus internet threats is a classic scam tactic. These fraudsters prey on fear, pushing for remote access or payments to 'fix' fabricated issues. Hang up immediately if confronted with such claims—never share details or click links. Report the incident to local authorities or cybercrime units to help track patterns. Legitimate agencies won't cold-call demanding urgent fixes. Stay vigilant against these tech support scams, and consider call-blocking apps for added protection. If in doubt, verify independently through official channels.
