I called back number (02) 9392 6536 reached IVR for National Relay Service.

Caller: National Relay Service

This was a Call from the National Relay Centre, who was calling on behalf of a hearing impaired client at work to assist with interpretation. Nothing scam about this number!

Caller: National Relay Service

For hearing impaired person

Caller: I don't know

4 min long empty voicemail

Caller: National Relay Service

Caller seemed legit as they were relaying message from perported hearing impaired person. This hearing impaired person had been communicating with me via email wanting me to pay their courier a large sum of cash and charging it to their credit card. Not forthcoming with credit card details.
Wanted me to charge the card for cost of goods and courier fees. Used the story that they were unwell and in hospital with middle ear infection waiting for operation that's why they couldn't talk to me. Emails back and forth continued on for about a week.
Rang via NRS number 2 days before due pick up trying to convince me to charge for goods and courier. This is a SCAM, The timing is critical for their scam to work as charge would have to go thru manually and it takes banks 3 days to uncover any issue with a manual payment.
BUSINESSES BEWARE

Caller: National relay centre

Was a message from a hearing impaired person
Not a scam

Caller: National Relay Service

This is the National Relay Service who help interpret calls for persons with hearing impairments.

Caller: Angus

National Relay Service is a legit company but we had "Kylie Briggs" use their service to try and scam us.

Caller: The National relay service

You guys know that google is free right? the National relay service is an Australian government initiative for people that are deaf hard of hearing or speech impaired. If you receive a call from them it just means that someone that is deaf or speech impaired has given your phone number to the NRS phone service to make the call form them. I used to work for the NRS.

So glad I read up on the reviews. Blocked this number~

Called and seemed dodgy and sent an email that didnt make sense so obviously scammmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Caller: National Relay Service

This is not a scam call - its a phone call for deaf or hearing impaired to call anyone who cannot speak on the phone, so National Relay Service will assist the call to relay over the phone.

used as part of a credit card charge back scam pretending they are deaf to convince you to accept overpayment on an invoice so you can forward the overpayment amount to a third party, once you forward that money to the third party they do a chargeback on the credit card for the whole amount.

in no way is the national relay service part of the scam just used to try and convince you they are legit

Its not a scam dumb dumb, it is the national relay Centre
