Looks like a classic energy‑provider scam. The callers push a fake discount, get aggressive when you push back, and even claim to be your electricity supplier despite wrong details. Hang up immediately, don’t share personal info, and block the number. Report the call to the ACCC or your local consumer affairs agency. If you keep getting calls, consider adding the number to a national Do Not Call list. Staying calm and refusing to engage is the safest play.
