The caller addressed me by my surname but then hung up immediately, which felt very odd.
I opted not to answer the call from this number as it wasn’t in my contacts list. After reading reports from others, I decided to block it since it seems to be associated with scams.
This caller had my first name and stated that they wanted to discuss my hot water service. I informed them that it was inappropriate to have this conversation since I don't own the property. The caller continued talking even after I hung up. There were noticeable pauses during the call, which may suggest it was not originating from within Australia. It is possible that they are using a local number to mask their identity. Please proceed with caution if you receive a call from them.
My phone pick it as a scam and hung up. I have blocked this number.
Scammers - don’t trust.
It’s a bit fat scam.
Everyone please block this no and the call from this number.
The caller, who has an Indian accent, claimed to be from Ararat and offered free high-tech LED light globes, stating that the offer was approved by the Victorian government. I believe this is another attempt to gather personal data.
