AN OLD SCAM RESURFACED - BEWARE

A scam number has been charged to Telstra mobile customers following a breach in their system.


The fee will come up as a "Third Party Purchase" on your Telstra Mobile bill.


Telstra support staff said it is a scam following a breach in Telstra's networks where they gain access to your mobile number and make a series of calls to premium services.


The billing amount is $39.95.


The would be "hackers" make a series of 6 calls in one minute that returned the above amount.


Anyone who has these charges, call Telstra on 13 22 00 and insist to talk to a supervisor.


 "Dialogue Communications" can be contacted on 1300738639 and they will tell you ring Ordanduu on 1300886232 and ask for a refund, they will offer you a refund by cheque. The scam works when you click on www.quiz2winmycar on your PC and you fill in a survey.


Unfortunately someone I know filled out the survey and the next Telstra bill had this $39.95 charge.


Keep it nice, I might cry if you write anything upsetting (like not)

My Mother has been stung by this on her last Telstra Bill, $53.00 or something.

I'm yet to investigate this however this is absolute bulls*it on Telstra's behalf.

Sounds like this has been going on for years.

Surely Telstra could have some how blocked this number from ever calling anyone.

Refer attachment for part of the bill.

Telstra have alot to answer for.

 

not happy

That information is just copies of the ASIC information held on the 2 companies....one still registered and the other no longer registered.

Why would you be interested in that?
