Called five times today claiming to be Telstra. I called the number back with my phone number blocked and got an automated response stating “Hi thanks for calling Specialized Recoveries. Please enter your phone number and post code and I will retrieve your account”
SCAM. Have blocked number.

Caller: Telstra specialised recoveries Getting dozens of calls a week. I’ve now blocked. I didn’t press 1 when directed to verify who I was. No recovery service for funds has a legal right to use recorded messages and ask for personal details. Massive SCAM. I’m so glad I can use this forum to check on numbers. Helps a lot.

Caller: Fake Telstra Called me multiple times and then finally left an SMS saying they were Telstra with a very urgent message for me. Confirmed with Telstra that there is no message for me and they are not Telstra. Nuisance caller.

Caller: Telstra They have been calling me multiple times a day. I eventually answer and it was a robot saying they are from telstra. They had my full name and date of birth. I found it weird when they continued to ask for information. I hung up and called telstra myself. Telstra stated there was no record of anyone trying to contact me. SCAM

This number called with an automated message that stated the incorrect year of my birth date and directed me to enter my day and month and when i did this the automated call suggested 3 times that my date of birth was incorrect and placed me through to an Australian speaking woman who went on to state the account number which has never existed for any of my accounts with Telstra. I also know i have an outstanding account at present and when i questioned this she told me she only had access to this outstanding amount was $25.14 for this account from 2021. She placed me on hold to source more information after i pushed the issue and whilst on hold (for a long time) another call came from a similar number, state and it was also a lady, non Australian requesting to speak to me, when i repeatedly asked her where she was from she said she could not tell me. Both blocked.

Caller: says Telstra Called twice.
1st call - missed but did not leave a message 2nd call - i answered but when it came to confirming DOB, i hung up.
overall, no VM but asking for personal details, no thanks. Scam alert!

3 missed calls with no message left. When I called back, the automated voice said it was Specialized Recoveries. I googled that name to find out that company was deregistered in 2016. Definitely a scam.
