Text message says it is from Centrelink, giving me an appointment at a time I cannot attend. Says to call 1800 110 608 if I can't attend. Not their usual number. It also does not say Reminder at the top, and it does not say a Services Australia representative will be calling me. Looks dodgy to me.
I note that all the comments saying this is legit are anonymous, so could be scammers.

To anyone who is receiving many calls from 18001106, local mobile numbers, & silent numbers, Do Not answer them, Nor hand over any personal details, as these treacherous low life criminals will have already some personal information about you, making it so believable that you surrender more of your confidential information. They check to see if you are alone, & vulnerable as well, where my cameras have captured suspicious persons attending to my door, & checking my door locks & letter box that follows soon after these calls & texts saying i have a phone interview at some time later, then they call you either from a normal mobile number you would expect to see, or a private number. I am an elderly lady & a quadriplegic which is extremely worrying for me. Do Not answer to them, ask for their number, ID name, company so you can check the number & report it to the police immediately. Beware of these treacherous lot of criminals as they have already personal information, possibly hacked from some government dept or darkweb.

I received this number and appointment time by text in a week when I had commenced dealings with Centrelink. I supspected it might not be legit when no appointments showed up in my account but chose to call Centrelink directly on a legitimate contact number before I blocked it. The number is safe. It belongs to a 3rd party agency who are contracted to get further information (in my case regarding a disability pension claim).The Centrelink staff person confirmed the number to me, and said because this agency works with but not within Centrelink, that is the reason the appointments are not posted in your Centrelink account.

Yes, It's happening to my friends too, they even sound professional, & it is hard to decipher, very dangerous as they ask you for all your private details as verification & then next thing they make a fake ID, & it escalates from there, IF it was Legit then Centrelink would leave a message.

Received a message that i had a phone appt at 2pm, 1.5 hours later they call, then they start asking me questions for all my personal details, i said you should have it all in the Gov system, I asked what is their full name, place of work & Id number, then they hung up. Beware it all looks real & pro, very sophisticated scam, don't fall for it. This is a great way for Identity theft or your Money.
