Expert Opinion
A suspicious call rolls in, masquerading as a Telstra alert about your IP address showing 'unusual activity' in public mode. The caller pushes for quick fixes, but hangs up when challenged—classic scam red flags. Real companies like Telstra never cold-call for such tech issues without prior contact. Block the number immediately and report it to authorities like the ACMA or your phone carrier to curb these nuisances. Verify any account concerns directly through official channels, never via unsolicited calls. Stay vigilant: if it feels off, trust your gut and hang up first.
