Expert Opinion
Approach calls from unknown numbers with skepticism, especially those claiming urgent financial issues. Reports consistently describe tactics like impersonating banks, Visa, or NBN to extract personal details or IP addresses—classic scam maneuvers. Hang up immediately if pressed for information; never share data over unsolicited calls. Verify concerns directly with your bank using official channels, not the caller's provided numbers. Block similar Sydney-area lines and report to authorities like the ACCC to curb these persistent fraud attempts. Enabling call screening tools can prevent future harassment.
