Unsolicited text message for an interesting unique opportunity with his “network of off-market buyers” …I guess if you ignore enough nuisance calls they begin texting.

Unsolicited call , Calls on a different similar number every day

This number opted to leave an 11 second voice message, however nothing, no message, just a light buzzing sound. Googled number and it tells me it is possibly Telstra. But also scammers can spoof this number to make it appear it is a genuine call from Telstra. Beware.

This guys used a name I didn’t even know, then went on about a house in Hoxton Park. Who I have no clue lives there, but felt it was a scam, so I went along with it and said, yeah that’s my cousins place. I asked which real estate he was calling from, he terminated the call. When I called back, he kept rejecting my calls. Unsure of the reason behind the call but I thought it was hilarious.
