(03) 6107 9624

Annoying spam.

Just three minutes before answering a call from (03) 6107 9624, I had a silent call from the number 0485 825 721 which hung up immediately. As I was unfamiliar with an organization called SVT Group, I decided to block that number to avoid future disturbances.

I did not answer a call from an unknown number, and they did not leave a message. They call me 2-3 times per day from various fabricated numbers. It seems to be associated with Skytech Limited located at 13 Latitude Blvd, Thomastown, VIC. While that may be a real address, it appears the call center is operating from somewhere in South Asia.

I strongly advise blocking this caller. They are likely attempting to steal your personal information to access your bank accounts.

I've been receiving multiple calls from smartphone callers associated with JNR Designs and Kato Cars. Now another suspicious number, 0458 483 044, has contacted me after I blocked the previous two. These scammers are relentless, and the mobile number actually answered this time. Proceed with caution!

After I blocked a call from Jnr Designs on 12 July, I've been receiving calls from Kato Cars that follow a similar tactic—they ring three times and then hang up. The listing for Jnr Designs in Shepparton, VIC has now been removed from search engines. I advise others to continue blocking these callers, as they are likely to change their numbers frequently. It's about time that Telstra takes action and Scam Watch addresses this issue!

These are definitely scammers; it's best to block these types of calls and not engage with them!

7 ghost calls from this number in three days. Every single time I pick up, I mute and they put down.

Had the same call threatening ATO etc as per other callers plus another call (female) saying roughly same thing but giving phone no as 02 6100 8557 which isn't connected. Just out of interest did any of you have a call from one of those companies telling you that your computer had a problem a few days before the supposed ATO call and tell them to get lost in (strong) language? I did and the guy got pretty pissed off so wondered if there was a connection. If you look up the CDPP nos they aren't anything like the quoted Nos.

Me too, thought it was scam my tax is empecable.

Jason Oçonnor'from ATO rang and threatened me with police arrest for Tax Evasion. Spoke to my Tax agent and was advised that ATO never calls people, instead they send letters to you whatever the matter. ATO NEVER rings you. It was a scam.

Received a call from these morons today also claiming they are ATO. Didn't answer but let it go to the answering machine.
