I dunno, even in the place you’re referring to (CCP Land) I observe differing preferences …All the Borg like the same things.

I was actually referring to science fantasy but I find the people from 2 of the biggest nations on Earth to be very drone like both in behaviour and thought patterns. They both have an extremely overrated opinion of themselves and their beliefs.I dunno, even in the place you’re referring to (CCP Land) I observe differing preferences …
They probably want to glean who you are.Had a strange SMS overnight
"Hi Joe,
Would love to talk about my Mortgage.
Rgds Chris
PS if this isn’t the friendly mortgage advisor can you please let me know."
Not sure of the angle but not responding - no-one would have that PS on a message normally.
Somewhat of a premium number with a x00 ending.
Number seems to have had a high number of lookups on numberlookup website as well so suspect the SMS went out to a lot of people.
Have had several "Nihaos..." of late.I dunno, even in the place you’re referring to (CCP Land) I observe differing preferences …
Definitely the case for spoofed numbers for something with a link.They probably want to glean who you are.
If you reply, I am not Joe/Chris, they would probably ask, your name and your phone #, and thus confirm the phone # is live, and can onsell you, onto linkt, ato, afp, etoro, etc.
Dont belief the # they are sms from,
I know this comment is a bit facetious because the elderly can’t necessarily cope … but given how easy it is to avoid being scammed, in many ways I’d prefer not to pay higher taxes & higher Telco charges, not to mention a reduction of everything I say & do being actively tracked by government, if I get an annoying scam message every few days.These people have no fear.
Who ever is running this scam.
Linkt themselves are not helping either.
Neither is the Aus govt, or the telcos.
They leave it to us to block and delete.

Probably they have bots working to try out all bsbs and account numbers.My bank has recently been hit with fake direct debits so be mindful folks what you do with your bank details. I don’t recall ever giving them out so no idea how they got my details.
Was a nuisance as I’ve had to close that bank account and start another as my details have clearly been breached, luckily these days only click a few links and had a new savings account open on less than a minute.
Ramped up all the security on my accounts regardless including transfer limits, locked cards, amongst other things.
