Expert Opinion
Delete any messages from suspicious numbers immediately to protect your data. These texts mimic police requests for evidence on crimes, often urging you to click links or share personal info—classic scam tactics to steal identities or money. Verify directly with official police via their verified website or local station, never through provided contacts. Block the number and report to authorities like the Australian Cyber Security Centre. Stay vigilant; real police don't solicit evidence this way via unsolicited texts. If you've engaged, monitor accounts for unusual activity and change passwords promptly.

Just received a scam text from this number claiming I needed to send private info and click a link or call a bogus Western Australia police ID. I verified with the police and found it was false.
