Exactly the same... I got a text from "Samantha Holmes" asking for only email contact after I posted an ad in GUMTREE!! to sell my camper trailer. Claimed she lived in Darwin, is a Squadron Leader in RAAF and is on deployment ATM hence limited phone contact. Also said that her courier would come to pick up from Perth. Too good to be true!

I also received a txt message lastnight from a person asking about an ad I had posted, asking to email at s14holmes @ gmail.com and no txts please. I emailed back and have had no reply. I am so happy I accidentally found this complaint page or I wouldn't have known it was a scam- not that I'm silly enough to give out my details though! Why do people do thing like this????!!!!

Caller: Telstra This is a legit Telstra number. I just spoke to one of the representatives online who advised they'd be calling me to continue troubleshooting through the phone - received a call from 0436 597 000 first and then received and SMS from 0436 597 001 to confirm next steps. All legit, no personal details were asked at any time and representative had a full aussie accent. I'm based in NSW.

This is exactly what it sent "hi this Prabhakar from Telstra I hope your landline and internet is starts working and if you still facing an internet issue please fell free to send the replay sms". The name is Indian. No proper punctuations. Incorrect grammars. Wrong spellings. It has to be a scam

I just received this call from so called 000 Ambulance Victoria.
This is the second time in 12 hours this has happened. I received two messages just after midnight and 000 no nothing about the matter.
I suspect that’s it in retaliation to a police attendance that occurred earlier that evening, what is this a warning???
