Scam caller number been reported

No message. Hung up

Claimed to be an asset and security branch investigating a case of fraudulent trading for $200ish. I asked them to verify some details and he hung up

NBN. Confirming an appointment I made, matches all my expected details.
Though it’s the fourth follow-up so far… not sure if I’d call it “thorough” or “annoying”.
But at least for me, it’s legit.

So this number has only popped up in June 2025, and when I called back, "the number you have called is disconnected. Please check the number and dial again."
Red flag - sick of these calls ffs.

Scam call

Received call from 0488 862 034 and I was immediately placed in some sort of queue with music in the background before they hung up. Subsequently I received several unsolicited texts from another number 0437 886 716, “ Prospa again, we haven't had much luck getting through. We'll try again. Otherwise reply with your preferred time or reach us on 1300 882 867”

A guy called said from Optus to tell me the device I ordered is out of stock the background is noisy that’s why maybe people think it’s not legit and scam I thought the same thing too. So I went ahead and contacted Optus on via my Optus app which the agent Berta told me it’s legit.

So I believe the phone call is legit.

Just a heavy breather.

says calling from YOUR COMMUNITY for fundraising so hang up

I didn't answer the call as I'm wary of 02 numbers, but they left a voicemail message which was in Chinese, followed by English saying they are from immigration and wanted to talk to me.

Caller hung up on answer. Don’t answer this call.

I receive constant and never-ending harassment from the people calling from this number and where they constantly enquire about my choice of electricity provider.

Therefore, with the caller often speaking in a sub continental accent I wonder what I need to do to stop these scam calls and where I am constantly blocking the number that they call from. This needs to stop.
