They sent me a messaged telling me i have an overdue at Laverty Pathology. Asking me to pay by clicking the link. I dont owe Laverty anything. Last labs i've done was in April and it was covered by my private insurance.

Caller: Allegedly ARMA debt collectors

Same story as all the others - repeated text demands for payment for an allegedly outstanding $50 pathology account. No details of the alleged debt and no money owed. I never respond, but they regularly communicate via an anonymous "Do Not Reply" text message, so you just can't block the number. I am a lawyer, so I am somewhat looking forward to hearing from them, when and if they ever seek to enforce the alleged debt! I will happily let everyone know the outcome!

Caller: DoNotReply ARMA

Received a text message saying that I have an overdue pathology account and to please make a payment via the hyperlink (which I won't click on) or call ARMA on 1300 363 394. I called the pathology company that confirmed that I have NO outstanding invoices.

I also kept receiving text messages saying I owed 35 dollars for QML pathology. It started happening just after getting blood test. I had confirmed that day I owed nothing as they realised I had a pension card and therefore the payment was waived. I received about 3 texts once a month. And a follow up saying we have sent u numerous one it is now escalated call 1300 363 394 AMRA to settle debt.
Thanks for the above feedback. Very frustrating

Caller: Text message

Rec’d a text stating there was overdue amount due from some blood tests. Rang the the pathology and was told there was no amount owing, all costs were covered by insurance.

Been getting this for months saying:

Final Notice. Dear Domenic Patti, you have failed to resolve your QML Pathology account. This matter has now been flagged as unpaid. Make payment of 50.00 TODAY to finalise this matter. Pay at www.bpoint.com.au/payments/qmlpathology/?Ref1=97243383 or call ARMA on 1300 363 394.

This is not my name and I never needed pathology.

Caller: Text msg from ARMA

Persistent sms messages saying I owe $111.80 to QML Pathology, with link (DO NOT CLICK) or call ARMA on 1300 363 394. Definitely a SCAM. I do not owe this and keep blocking. They must have some means to get round the blocking? Pay to avoid further escalation. Right ... NOT. Why can't they put a stop to these fraudsters.

Had several txt messages over a couple of months for an overdue Dorevitch Pathology account. Definitely a scam, the txts look genuine and involves ARMA again with a link and number to call 1300 363 394.

or you could just pay your debts?

These guys are debt collectors. Avoid them like the plague.

Numerous text recd saying “ Final Notice. Dear (my full name), you have failed to resolve your Laverty Pathology account. This matter has now been flagged as unpaid. Make payment of 274.65 TODAY to finalise this matter. Pay at www.bpoint.com.au/payments/laverty/?Ref1=74522315 or call ARMA on 1300 363 394’

What is concerning is that these scammers know my full name. The last 4 Fridays I have received the same text. *SCAM*

These so & so's have been hounding me for months, obviously criminals whom don't let up once your phone number is hacked. Should be hunted down and jailed. There are enough listings here to get Police involved what is Reverse Aust doing besides just providing this data base. Good to be alerted but this type of thing has to be handled more to deter and find theses cretons.

Dear (my surname), we have made several unsuccessful attempts to assist you in resolving your overdue QML Pathology account. Payment of 160.10 is now required to avoid further escalation. Make payment at www.bpoint.com.au/payments/qmlpathology/?Ref1=94931574 or call ARMA on 1300 363 394.


I've received about 15 of these messages over the last 3 months. I haven't had any blood work done in like a year and I've never had anything done that wasn't covered by Medicare.

The website they link to pay money looks realistic until you see the abn they put isnt their company but commonwealth’s abn.
This number is a scam. Avoid them and block. They sent repetitive text messages to my mother.

Got a text msg saying I had a debt with dorevitch pathology and here’s a link to pay. Called dorevitch to check, no debt owing.

Caller: ARMA Group re Dorivitch Pathology

Continually receiving text msg saying I have an outstanding account for $ 111:80 for Dorivitch Pathology. Has a link to click to pay. With a ph.no for ARMA Group. I looked up D/Pathology payment options. It said for BPay to type in the numbers from the text msg, I did + my Bank said No BPay account for those details. I thought if I tried to pay via BPay it would be safer than clicking on text link provided. Glad I haven't clicked on the link. I will ph D/Pathology this week to see if I do have an invoice. It's been over a year of messages, always the same amount. I'm on Disability Pension so never get an invoice for blood tests. Scam or Not ??? Thank you

Caller: Arma Financial

THESE HOUNDS KEEP CALLING AND TEXTING ME LOOKING FOR AN EX FROM HALF A DECADE+ AGO. THEY TEXTED ME A LINK TO SET UP A LEGALLY BINDING PAYMENT PLAN IN HER NAME. THIS IS A SECURITY VULNERABILITY AND WILL BE REPORTED TO ASCS AND CYBER.GOV

TRIED TO CALL BACK AND WAS ON HOLD 40 MINUTES(!!). MY NUMBER IS A PRIVATE BUSINESS NUMBER, HAD TO HANG UP SO I WOULDN'T LOSE OUT ON WORK. NEXT TIME THEY CALL I WILL ANSWER AND START BILLING THE MINUTES.

I RECOMMEND CONTACTING ASIC AND THE ACCC IF YOU WANT THESE SCAMMING FLOGS TO STOP CONTACTING YOU. ALSO FILE A POLICE REPORT, AND ADD EACH CALL TO THE REPORT. THEY'LL STOP PRETTY QUICKLY.

This scam is still going on. They have sent repeated texts to my mother, but with my dad's first and last name, over a few weeks, saying there is an unpaid Laverty Pathology bill with the tel. number of a debt agency (ARMA). The consistency and professional tone (correct grammar for a start) was wearing down mum's resolve that this might be a scam, and the phone number provided in the text is genuine. Luckily, she asked me to check and yup, they're up to no good.

There is a gov website to report scams - I'll enter the scam details, but doubt anything can be done. www.scamwatch.gov.au/report-a-scam

I got few msgs and I got this today saying its a final notice. I got scared and rushed to open the link to pay but the page didn’t seem legit so came to google to see if anyone getting similar msg and found out so many people got it. How can I contact the legit laverty pathology to see if i have any outstanding fee.
