If Symbio Networks' customers' numbers are being spoofed, they should report it to ACMA.
Should I report this to the police?
If you've lost money or provided sensitive information (passwords, banking details, personal ID) to a scammer using 02 5119 3599, report it to the police via your local station or online. You should also report the number to Scamwatch (scamwatch.gov.au), ACMA (acma.gov.au), and your bank immediately to protect your accounts.
