I received a call from this number asking about my neighbour. The man said it was related to a bank matter and my neighbour was not picking up their phone. I asked how they got my mobile number and said that it was obtained from a public data base - they also seemed to know the name of my neighbour. Very concerning.

Scum

Caller: A person from some credit team

(08) 6214 4576 got a call from this number and they know my name, asked if I know a person named XYZ. They said they are recording the conversation for training purpose. This is scary. Fake your name if you think it’s a spam call, l

Just had a call from this number asking for Nathan, was this Nathan. I said no it wasn't Nathan. The guy said he must have an old number and I said very old because I've had this number for 20 years. I asked what the call was in reference to and he was trying to get ahold of an Adrian. I told him I didn't know an Adrian either. He said 'I'll make a note that this number isn't Nathan's. I called back and he answered the phone with 'Premise Credit'. Fraud.

Caller: Not Sure

Mentioned my name (scary), and said to call a Adjani on the 08 number, relation to Adam. I don't know any Adams.

Caller: Joel

Asked if I knew Martin xxxx. He wanted to pass on an urgent message to him and that I was listed as a contact in a database. I said that I had no idea who this person was.

Said my name,had my number,continued to ask about Nicklas,asked who lived in unit 12,was un nearving as this is a Bethanie Complex.it was an Asian Woman caller relentless

Seemed to expect me to introduce myself... never introduced himself to me though. Gave an official spiel about how the call will be recorded for training purposes and sounded very professional. asked me if I knew Kelly someone, I said no, gave a different name they "might go by", I said no again, and he hung up with still no explanation.

Joel has a couple of listings on Gumtree. Thankfully I Googled his number and found these comments before giving him money for a ticket

I keep getting calls from Joel. he has been harassing people i have not spoke to for years as well as my partners family to try to extort money from me. scam.

I have issues with this person called Joel. Sending messages to my family friends. How got the numbers I don't know.

Rang the number and voice message says from PIONEER Credit!! Scammer for sure!

Joel called asked if he was speaking to Bianca I told him he had the wrong person and number so he sent this msg after the call.

Hi Bianca, could you please contact Joel on (08) 6214 4546 in relation to Peter Cassidy. Alternatively, please pass on this message for them to contact me as soon as possible. Thank you.

Just had the same thing happen

Fraud

Caller: The guys name was Joel

Had a missed call and they didn’t leave a voicemail. They then proceeded to send me a Txt message from 0428 807 965 asking me to call Joel on (08) 6214 4546 or to pass a message to Steven Gridley (who I do not know) to call them ASAP. I called the number and Joel answered. I asked them to stop calling and txting me and hung up.

same asked me to give msg to a neighbour (didn't know the neighbour). wouldn't say why. knew my name and had my number 'from a public data base'. Wierd.

asking me personal information and for me to leave my house and deliver a message to an unknown neighbour

I called back number (08) 6214 4546 reached voice mail but did not say for what company.
