A Lady called about a package from/to China, regards sugar and medicine etc. I immediately told her I couldn’t talk anything until I check her ID first. I said I would call back and I found this is a scam. Be careful as she does have your name., but don’t be fool .

Caller: I didn’t answer call

I received a scam text msg, they pretended they were Australia post and that the address on my package was incorrect. I blocked the text msg as I hadn’t sent nor was I expecting a parcel in the mail. Then I received the scam call from this number. I didn’t answer the call as I was on a another ph call, I checked the number and found this web page with 38 complaints about the number

English speaker who knows my full name. Saying Chinese customs about a package that has been held containing meth. I hung up the call and they keep calling me 3 times.
The number is a real number but the scammer can use VoIP to fake as this number.

I called back this number, Australia home affair did answer and told me that if they do call me, caller ID won't be this number.

A Female with Indian accent called me claiming that I have an illegal parcel but the definitely a scam since she is not calling me by my correct legal name but the alias name I've been using on different shopping websites. They leak your info to the scammers. But the phone number they use looks real. Sneaky basters. I recommend using different names online shopping if not require legal names and you'll know which twat have your info leaked.

The call seems to be made using an auto dialler, which beeps as soon as I pick up.

The caller, in Indian accent, claims to be from Australian Border Force. Claiming I (using my name) have issues with immigration.

This number is real but the speaker in the phone call is a scammer. A man speaking Mandarin, with what sounded like a Taiwanese accent, told me that I had sent an undeclared and illegal package from China and that I was in breach of international law. This man knew my surname, but I am not sure if he knew my full name. When I asked him to confirm if he was immigration and asked him for his full address, he got annoyed and hung up immediately. f*cking scammer! Rubbish! The government department will not call you directly and will not speak Mandarin! Go to the hell scammer!

Just received a call today. Mandarin speaker knows my name, but cannot speak English. This number is searched as the Department of home affairs in Canberra, but why cannot speak English? Very suspicious!
