I keep getting calls from this number at night and if I call it back it is a Optus message (I am with telstra) saying the number is not in service.

Have been getting these calls every 1hr or so after I answered the 1st call. Rang Telstra to ask if they were doing any internet checks & were told that they've been getting calls regarding these nuisance calls. I've had to tell my family to leave messages before I could answer my phone. This is starting to become a harassment.

They say that they are from Telstra and that internet is broken. Have phoned late in the evening for the last few nights.

They've been ringing for the whole week, when asked to provide number to call back, they were rude. They said that your internet security is jeopardised and go to your computer so they can assess the problem. Don't disclose any information.
