Suspicious

This is likely a scam call originating from Taiwan, presented in a Taiwanese Mandarin accent. It appears there are fewer penalties for scams in Taiwan compared to Mainland China, which raises further suspicion about this call.

This number sent a blocked call message stating: "For details, press one for English, press two for Chinese..." It seems like a scam trying to get information from unsuspecting users.

I received a voicemail from this number informing me that they have information regarding an important document. The message prompted me to press 1 for English or 2 for Chinese, but I chose to hang up instead.

I received an automated call regarding an "Epidemic Alert," which offered options for English or Chinese. I strongly believe this is a scam call.

Please be cautious of this unlisted number, as it appears to be another spoofed number potentially used by cyber criminals. I did not recognize it, so I let the call ring out without answering, and no message was left. I have blocked this number and reported it for further investigation.

Scam

I received a voicemail that appeared to be targeting "Chinese students." I'm not sure of their intentions, but I suspect it's either the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) or someone trying to exploit students, so I've decided to block the number.

Had a missed call from this number. Automated voicemail was in Chinese it sounded like. Assume a scam as no other reason for an aussie number to leave foreign language voicemail.

B
Bock
Scam

I missed a call from this number, and an automated voice left a voicemail in Chinese. I believe this is likely a scam.
