I am experiencing issues with scammers exploiting our Google AdWords accounts, which is resulting in significant financial losses for us.

Scam

The caller claimed they wanted to replace my water heater for free as part of a Victorian Government Upgrade offer. This offer sounded too suspicious and too good to be true, making me believe it is a scam.

Scam

I chose not to answer a call from an unfamiliar number that did not leave a message, so I blocked it. Today, I received another call from the number 8000 7086 with no message left. It seems likely that these are either scam calls or calls from questionable charities.

I received a typical nuisance/scam call where no message was left. When I attempted to call back, I was told that the number is not connected. It’s frustrating to hear that they claim to be working on preventing these nuisance calls. I've blocked this number.
