Had a call today quoting the 5456 number being referred to here. Same story for me, the only other comment I make (being non technical) is having been asked to read back each piece of data whether they are trying to do something with voice recognition.
We got a call from a guy saying he was from Telstra IT Dept. The caller ID on our phone showed he called from 02 9935 6871. He asked a few questions about our Internet connection and he sounded dodgy. I asked for his name and a return contact number so I could return his call. He said he was Jack William, employee number J9426, and his number was 02 8091 5456. He said he was located at 215 Miller Street, North Sydney 2060. I didn't return the call but he called me again after 5 mins. I terminated the call. Coincidentally, our Telstra wireless National Broadband Network did go off air shortly afterwards. I called Telstra and got sorted. They kindly ran a check on the employee ID number and, not surprisingly, confirmed that it did not exist. This is definitely a scam.
I got the same call today. He said he was from Telstra and said I could call him back on 0280915456 to verify he was from Telstra. He offered me his "Telstra employee I'd number". He said I had an issue with someone accessing my computer and getting my personal details. He wanted me to press ctrl, windows and r. I told him he was a scammer and he promptly hung up. I presume he was about to get me to run some kind of program. Does anyone know what program they are trying to get you to run? Presumably the program must already be on my computer if ctrl, window and are will run it?
We are a Sydney Business in Broadway and had an indian lady call and said we had an internal issue with our security and she needed me to press Ctrl and the Windows Key and the letter R. Which I didn't do. Was quite convincing but said I would call her back and looked up number (02) 8091 5456 and it is a scam!
(Scam) call saying from telstra technical department was using the name of Nick Wilson, needed to access computer to fix the gateway hackers have corrupted modem and computer system.(do not let them access computer hand up check with Telstra/ATO etc or who every they working for.
Original calls on the land line had overseas Private with no number ID.
Connected telstra 3 times to check, nobody was working with that name or logged calls for those events.
Caller said he was from "Telstra Technical department" calling because of illegal hacking of my account.
Wanted me to get on computer and give him details of my connection.
Yeah right...

Telephone scammers try to steal your money or personal information. Scams may come through phone calls from real people, robocalls, or text messages.
Call or message may be a scam if:
You're asked for personal information or money;
Text messages tell you to urgently click a link or call a number;
The call or text pretends to be from someone you trust like your phone company or bank;
You're being threatened or made to feel scared;
The caller wants to access and control your computer.
To protect yourself:
Don't answer if you don't know who it is. Let the call go to voicemail.
If a caller leaves a message claiming to be from known organisation, cross check the number the call came from against the organisation's official website.
Never share any personal information about yourself or your bank details.
Don't click on any links. Never let a stranger take control of your computer.
Do not send any money.
Block calls on your mobile phone. Your phone company can tell you how to block calls to your home phone.
